This section features my 'news' showreel and my 'personality' showreel, as well as a variety of TV packages, 'lives' and 'look-lives' which I have produced over the past few years around the world.
These were produced during the course of my time at The Herald; freelancing for The British Forces Broadcasting Service (BFBS) in Afghanistan during the course of three months in 2011; and in San Diego with U-T TV and U-T San Diego News.
The vast majority of the Afghanistan-related videos were scripted, filmed and edited by myself - often in some dangerous sandpit in the back end of nowhere.
The TV packages for The British Forces Broadcasting Service were streamed across the world to countless British military outposts to an audience of hundreds of thousands of people both at home, and at war.
The most recent packages have been compiled during my current role as a 'show host', 'anchor' and 'reporter' for U-T TV and U-T San Diego News in San Diego, California.
Below are a selection of these packages. For more, visit my YouTube channel by clicking on the 'Tristan Nichols' YouTube' button directly below.

With falling circulation and readership, newspapers today have been left with no choice but to embrace the internet and integrate between multimedia platforms to enable survival.
During my time at The Herald in Plymouth, England, I was part of a small team of journalists who experimented with new technology (such as the head-mounted camera) with the idea of producing a more multi-media package for the paper's audience with different media formats feeding off, and supporting each other.
My use of the head camera featured on international news networks, including Sky News, as shown below.
During my deployments I shot footage across the world, including Norway, Brazil, Sierra Leone and Afghanistan, and fed it back to the newsroom for broadcast on The Herald's www.thisisplymouth.co.uk website.
I also featured in video packages closer to home, interviewing and having fun with Hollywood movie stars, musicians, and local figures.
