I'm Nicole, 22 years old and a graduate from Emerson College. I'm a young filmmaker in New York specializing in Directing, Production Design, and Cinematography. My blog is a bunch of Behind the Scenes, Film Memes, aesthetic original photography, with a dash of shameless self-promotion.

Hey Filmblr!

It's been a while, but I directed another music video and got to try some cool new techniques. We did some crazy visuals with tape sculptures and crystal refraction. It would mean a lot to me if you checked it out!

So thankful to everyone who worked on this and lets keep the view count up!

Hey Filmblr!!

I directed a horror short about a devastating reveal while two friends try out an urban legend... and they actually summon a demon.

Made with some cool friends, so please give it a watch and a like!

Hey Filmblr!

During the pandemic, I took this time to go back to where I started as a filmmaker and do a stop-motion animation. Over the course of months, I’ve been carefully animating paper cut-outs, similar to the style of Harry Smith’s animation. This music video has been keeping me sane during the pandemic.

So without further ado, please watch this video and I hope y’all enjoy!

We’re 50 views away from hitting 2K! Will you help me get there?

Hey Filmblr!!

Currently hit 1.3k views on our music video ANGEL and I’m beyond excited. If you haven’t seen it yet, please watch it here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tpcFqa6VwC4

Support Women Directors and Song Writers/Producers!!

Amazing that Drive-In Restaurants are having a revival during this time. Frates Drive-In in Southern Massachusetts has been around since the 50′s and is still keeping its wholesome vibe.
