Nick Thompson is a filmmaker in Seattle. He recently finished his horror film Skagit, which will play at We Make Movies International Film Festival in LA on 10/7 and Poulsbo Film Festival on 10/15. Check out this new interview with Nick in The Stranger about the making of Skagit.
Skagit is an experimental Northwest horror film shot with an all-local cast and crew that we finished in March 2021. We're currently submitting to film festivals. Skagit had its world premiere on opening night of Hastings Rocks Film Festival in Hastings, an eerie seaside town in the UK, on Friday, April 22, where it won Best Feature Film and Best Editing, and had its US Premiere at Art of Brooklyn Film Festival, where Nick took home the award for Outstanding Feature Director.
Nick is currently working on a music video for Velvet Q and just published a new photo book of one night of film portraits, Equinox. He teaches filmmaking at local high schools through South End Stories.
He directed, shot and edited a music video for Salt Lick (the rising Seattle rockers who played SXSW '19), made an experimental film that played in Local Sightings, and self-published Port Angeles: A Year on Film, a 40-page book of film photos taken by Nick in and around Port Angeles, available for purchase online and in over 20 bookstores.
In 2017 Nick's film Douglas Fern's Fact File screened at Northwest Film Forum in Seattle, followed by a panel discussion about the state of arts funding in our increasingly data driven city. The panel featured Tim Lennon, Executive Director of the Vera Project, and Kathy Hsieh of the Office of Arts and Culture, among others.
