Nick Montalvo | 1st Assistant Camera | Atlanta

Philosophy: We help each other.

I've spent over 20 years behind the camera learning one thing: the best images come from teamwork. I'm not trying to become a DP or an operator—I'm here to offer my technical expertise and execute, to make sure directors and cinematographers get the frames they're picturing in their heads.

My job is simple: be prepared, stay focused, and give you as many usable frames as possible, as safely and efficiently as possible. Whether it's a full series run or a day-play, on a network series or an independent movie, I show up ready to support the vision.

I started in the camera department in New York in 2013, learning the different digital camera systems working with the Saturday Night Live Film Unit. In 2016, I came home to Georgia and found myself right in the middle of Atlanta's film boom. I've been grateful to work alongside some incredible DPs and technicians ever since.

Available for features, television, commercials, and documentaries. Ready to help bring your vision to screen.
