Nick is more than just a musician and artist, but also a filmmaker himself. His mind and workflow go beyond only music, and in ways where he analyzes how can he be a part of that concept? How does the music fit into this puzzle? Why is music even needed? Nick especially takes great pride in knowing how to speak the language of a director and of a cinematographer.
