BIOGRAPHY

Nick Saldivar began his career in filmmaking with the goal of becoming a director. Without anyone available to shoot the films he wanted to make, he began learning cinematography himself. What started as a necessity quickly became an interest in the craft and an important part of how he approaches filmmaking.

​

Nick developed his skills primarily through practice, working on short films, student productions, and independent projects throughout college. He continued to study cinematography while using each project as an opportunity to experiment, problem solve, and develop his own approach to video production.

​

His work eventually expanded beyond narrative projects into commercial and digital content. He has worked with small businesses and companies to produce video, motion graphics, and other forms of digital media. While earning his Bachelor of Arts in Media and Cultural Studies at the University of California, Riverside, Nick also taught himself motion graphics and animation. This led to work with the California Census, where he created motion graphic animations and commercial content.

​

Nick currently works as a videographer, cinematographer, and editor, with experience spanning production, post-production, and motion graphics. He is also the Head of Free Logic Studios, where he leads a team of filmmakers producing commercial and creative work for a range of small business clients. More recently, he has been working closely with EDGE Sound Research, an audio technology company, creating video content and collaborating with their product team on a range of social media and case study projects.
