Georgia-born Director Nicholas Mullins is a Junior in college, studying Communication Theory in rural Western Pennsylvania. He has an affinity for telling the quiet, unseen, and fantastic stories of every day life, especially in depressed and forgotten areas of the world.
Since he was 7, he knew that he wanted to use movies to tell stories. After years of using his dad's camcorder to film silly skits, he set out to make his first short film (Periwinkle), during his Sophomore year of highschool. Choosing not to study film in college, Nicholas instead focuses on understanding the theories that make up communication and applying those theories to his films independent of school assignments.
Growing up, Jean Claude's art was around my house. It inspired me greatly throughout my childhood and into adulthood. After a month of research and crafting a pitch, I contacted the Roy family. Liking my approach, they invited me to live with them in Newfoundland over the summer. Everyday for 10 days I followed Jean Claude throughout his day from the time he poured his morning coffee to when he took off his boots and went to bed. I am so pleased to get to share the story of a man who inspired me so much.
