Hello! I'm Shelby Nord, a video editor and VFX student at DePaul University in Chicago, IL. I am currently working as a video editing intern, and have a growing interest in environment art and real-time world building.
My background in editing and visual storytelling provides me with a unique perspective on composition, mood, and pacing - tools I now apply to my environment design work in Unreal Engine. I’m currently developing cinematic environments inspired by narrative-heavy visuals, blending my love for visual effects, animation, and digital storytelling.
Whether I'm building immersive scenes in 3D or shaping a story in an edit, I’m always focused on creating emotional, atmospheric experiences. I'm open to freelance video editing work while I continue expanding my portfolio.
Feel free to reach out or follow along as I grow in this space!
