Peter Rochon Nicholas

Peter Rochon Nicholas is an independent filmmaker who has spent the last six years working in the television and film industries. Peter used his short film "Toy Soldiers" as a jumping off point to start his directing career. Produced in 2012, the short follows a lone marine taken POW in Afghanistan during the aftermath of 9/11. "Toy Soldiers" was well received by industry and audience alike, and inspired Peter to embark on a dual feature film/documentary project. "The Hunt" (produced in 2015) is a feature film that explores the desperation of human nature in a forest full of revelations. The documentary, "No Budget? No Problem", follows Peter in his journey to make his first feature film, unveiling the obstacles that a filmmaker faces, including the ever so prevalent issue of funding. In addition to his feature film/documentary project, he works at an ABC affiliate news station (KOAT Channel 7 News) and a communications rental company at Albuquerque Studios. Peter earned his degree in Film Studies at Santa Monica College in 2009.
