Nina works in the camera department as 1st and 2nd assistant camera. She has extensive experience with focus pulling, setting up shots, building cameras, proper slating technique, and troubleshooting technical problems. She gained experience in the Purchase film conservatory collaborating with other students as both director of photography and 1st AC on numerous short films and projects. Since then, her experience has expanded as she works professionally on feature films, commercial work, and public television in the camera department.

Additionally, she has found a calling in post-production, with an interest in assistant editing.

Her first love is Avid Media Composer, but Nina is skilled in Premiere Pro and does color correction in Davinci Resolve, as well. Her strong creative eye aids her organizational and technological skills as she collaborates with directors and editors with the aim of serving the story, characters, and themes of each piece she works on.
