Producer - Nick Quenville

I'm a documentary cinematographer, director & filmmaker with experience in long & short form documentaries, doc-series, and corporate video production. I want to make documentaries that dive into the captivating world of wildlife, while seamlessly weaving in narratives of the human experience and our profound connection to the natural world. As a visual storyteller, my goal is to open people’s eyes to the beauty in things that they most commonly overlook, misunderstand, or take for granted.

Client Stories


KUMA OUTDOOR GEAR

 

“As a brand, working with a new videographer can come with a few unknowns, but Nick put those concerns to rest right away. We partnered with him on a project with the Northern Lights Wildlife Shelter, and he did an incredible job bringing their story and the important work they do to life.

Not only did Nick create a beautiful and engaging video that captured the shelter’s process and mission, but he also found an authentic way to incorporate our Kuma Outdoor Gear products without ever taking away from the story. He understood our goals from the beginning and worked closely with both the Kuma team and the shelter to ensure everyone was aligned and the project met expectations.

We’re proud to share the video whenever we get the chance, and we wouldn’t hesitate to work with Nick again. He’s creative, collaborative, professional, and genuinely invested in creating something that works for everyone involved.”

FAREWELL HARBOUR LODGE

 

“In my 30-year wildlife guiding and lodge management career, I have worked with many professional filmmakers and photographers, including from the BBC and other outlets, and I can say without question that Nick Quenville is among the very best in the business. Nick brings a high level of emotional intelligence to his work, with a remarkably intuitive understanding of both animals and people. It’s something that makes working with Nick such a pleasure.”

Tim McGrady — Former Owner and Manager


CANTEX MINE DEVELOPMENT CORP.

 

“I had the pleasure of working with Nick Quenville when he was filming a corporate video of Cantex’s North Rackla project in the Yukon. Our site is remote, being 100 kilometres from the nearest road and is in rugged alpine terrain. Nick proved to be extremely capable of operating in this environment and arrived well prepared with all of the equipment needed to complete his work. I was pleased with his work and would not hesitate to recommend him for similar challenging shoots.”
