My name is Ruby Nicholls and I am a Hills Road Sixth form Film Studies student, I am currently about to finish my first year of studying film and am just starting my coursework element.

Currently I am more interested in making my own short film. Filmmaking has always interested me and I have been making short montage / films of my friends for a while, which means I have a bit of experience with editing.
