ABOUT JAMES NICOLORO

Producer/Director

Producing is about taking an idea, exploring the possibilities and developing a plan. I have worked in many areas of broadcast television. I’ve produced or been involved in hundreds of projects from short segments to feature length documentaries.  I’ve managed large and small crews and have produced live and live-on-tape. I shoot and light on occasion and I’m comfortable editing on FCP or Avid.  I like to be involved in every aspect of production. I usually do most of my own effects using Photoshop and After Effects. I take music seriously and work well with composers. For my personal HD projects I use a Canon 7D and edit in Final Cut.
I’m currently working on a number of documentary proposals, including Alice Austen: A Photographic Life and Mark Twain’s last 22 months in Redding Connecticut. I'm in production on The Art Deco lecture with historian Barry Lewis
