Henry McGilchrist
Eora-based multimedia journalist and content producer
For the last five years, Henry has been working on the front line of the rapidly-developing online news video world, producing polished and thought-provoking digital content in one of Australia’s largest commercial newsrooms.
Working as a one-man production house when needed, Henry writes, shoots, edits and publishes news content - with more than 20 million unique pairs of eyes watching his content every month.
During uni, he worked in key creative roles across a number of award-winning student films and as an EP and Supervising Editor for UTS Central News during its three-year run as the JERAA Student Publication of the Year.
Outside of work, you'll find him in the water, travelling, or at a gig, but he'll always have a camera in-hand.
