A few wonderful directors are joining El Colony this summer, and amongst them is a fantastic action and VFX director Nick Wright.
Nick’s long history of visual effects direction has led him on a wondrous journey through almost every facet of the commercial film making process. Starting as a 3D animator and compositor at the UK’s Yorkshire Television, Nick worked on some of the most loved UK dramas including A Touch of Frost, The Royals and Heartbeat. Jump ahead a few years and his landscape has shifted from creating longform visual effects, to directing commercials with a heavy visual effects bent, whether it's cars or characters; photorealistic or fantastical.
Nick’s background as a Live Action Director, Visual Effects Supervisor and VFX Artist allows him to work side by side with both crews and visual effects artists alike.
His latest work for Vauxhall Insignia features sleek effects and glorious imagination, and for a bit of fun - have a look at Lego criminals in a Mercedes chase spot "Let's get serious".
