ABOUT
DIRECTOR | CINEMATOGRAPHER
I’m Nicolas Heinzel, a film and commercial director, cinematographer, and editor based in Düsseldorf, Germany.
My work has been recognized internationally:
Winner of the best Horror category at the Hollywood best Indie Film Award, Official Selection at the Cannes World Film Festival and Nominated at the Barcelona Indie Awards.
Production Company
Through my production company, One Shot Production, I bring cinematic stories to life. From branded content to narrative projects.
What defines my work:
I have a distinct visual language: a dark, emotional aesthetic that modernizes the nostalgia of 90s cinema.
I blend authentic storytelling with precise lighting, vintage lenses, and unique camera setups to create raw, timeless imagery.
My approach on set:
Great films come from genuine energy. A motivated crew, open communication, and an atmosphere where creativity flows freely.
As a director, I lead with empathy and vision, ensuring every person on set feels inspired to deliver their best.
