Majed Badra is a filmmaker, editor, and visual storyteller with a multidisciplinary background in Illustration, Comics; Narrative Practice, and Creative Writing. His training in sequential art deeply informs his cinematic approach—shaping the way he constructs scenes, designs visual rhythm, and builds emotionally resonant narratives. Before moving into filmmaking, Majed worked extensively across illustration, comics, cartoons, and graphic design, developing a strong visual foundation that now supports his work behind the camera. His documentary Gaza Nippers: Hope Amid Devastation has been screened across universities, cultural institutions, community organisations, and the NSW Parliament House Theatrette, earning recognition from scholars, journalists, and community leaders for its peace-journalism sensibility and human-centred storytelling.
