Let’s start with my reel…

My reel is a showcase of the full spectrum of what I do: cinematic videography, dynamic drone cinematography, and award-winning editing. From capturing interviews and B-roll on the ground to delivering stunning aerials in the sky, I bring a storyteller’s eye and technical precision to every frame. Combined with 13+ years of post-production expertise, this reel highlights the range, creativity, and craftsmanship I deliver to every project..

About me:

Nick Waugh is a seasoned video producer, editor, and FAA-certified drone pilot with over 13 years in the advertising industry. Originally from Dallas, Texas, and now based in Nashville, he has built a reputation as the go-to Swiss Army knife of production, fluent in cinematography, lighting, sound design, and post-production.

Nick’s obsession with video began at a young age, when he was constantly experimenting with the family camcorder, shooting projects with friends, and turning school assignments into video productions whenever he had the chance. That early passion grew into a career dedicated to storytelling through the moving image.

Over the years, he’s partnered with national brands like Bridgestone, Firestone, LP Building Products, Tractor Supply Company, and the Nashville Predators, helping craft impactful campaigns that resonate. Whether he’s behind the camera, piloting a drone, or cutting together a narrative in the edit bay, Nick brings a dependable, no-drama presence to every project.

He’s earned multiple Addy Awards along the way, but what drives him most is the goosebump moment, the emotional payoff when all the pieces land just right. For Nick, great storytelling isn’t just about looking good; it’s about making people feel something..
