Nick Roney

ProdCo

“Party time is all the time”, a sentiment shared by the mechanical squirrel popstar in Real Estate’s paper cup that lives through all of Nick Roney’s work. Whether it’s uncovering Prague’s secrets with Orlando Bloom or attempting to rescue his parent’s marriage by way of a music video, Nick has a novel take on short-form comedy. Molson Coors, Virgin media, and Gojek are just a few of the brands to which Nick has lent his offbeat comedic sensibilities. He often blurs the line between reality and fiction, making his warm, intelligent, and most of all human stories shine. Most recently Nick’s short film ‘The Flute’ was named the 2023 Winner of the SXSW Grand Jury Award.
