Learn about me:
Nick Barden
Born and raised in a small, Southwest Michigan beach town (yes, lakes can have real beaches), I set out for the exact opposite after graduating college, moving just outside of New York City for a few years. Then after 25 odd years of dealing with gray skies and icy roads, I yet again went fully in the opposite direction, moving to hot and sunny Austin, Texas where I now call home.
That’s me and my puppy, Shrek (long story). I already have a million great pictures of her alone, but this is the best of the two of us.

I utilized contractors and agencies to get things done: building project briefs, ensuring deadlines are hit, reviewing assets, and ensuring all relevant stakeholders are engaged and satisfied.
Videos
I concept, write, shoot, direct, produce, edit, act, and do everything in between in a variety of content including

I also make content during my free time. I run an Instagram account, made a short animated series, and poked around with some other projects now and then. If that sounds interesting…
