Riley Bray

For more than a decade I have worked as a director, cinematographer, camera operator, and sound supervisor. With a background in audio engineering, I came to film through sound. On the path to directing I honed my craft over many years operating camera, studying light, and engaging with the visual mechanics of storytelling.

As a director, I know the roles of my crew with a firsthand knowledge. I believe the fundamental job of a director is to create the best possible conditions for the crew to do their best work. As much as this is about having a clear vision and the tools and skill to execute it, it is about working with people, understanding their role, goals, and challenges within the team, and fostering a spirit of unity and camaraderie on set.
