Production company Stink have signed the talented director Nick Roney.
When did you start directing and how did you get into it? / Did you always know you wanted to be a film-maker, or did you do something else before you took this career path?
I spent about 7 years as a dental assistant in Southwest Iowa before falling in love with filmmaking. Once–while helping with a peculiar apicoectomy–we found a patient's infection beneath their lower left lateral had miraculously hardened into a pearl. I filmed it on my iPhone and later submitted the footage to a local film festival under the title Parson’s Secret. It won bronze which gave me the confidence to take on more ambitious projects.
What is it about storytelling that you enjoy?
I like figuring out what gets a reaction. Every project is an experiment in that.

What would you say is your specialism?
Offbeat comedy with a docu-fiction slant.
Where did you grow up and where are you now based?
I grew up in a small town in Humboldt, California of about 200 people. It was secluded and there were only four kids my age. That’s how I got into movies, there wasn’t much else to do. Now I live in LA in Elysian Park.
Have you won any awards for your work to date? If so, which ones?
I won a UKMVA in 2017 for Best Rock Video - Newcomer for my Lemon Twigs video. My video Flasher - Material made most top ten lists in 2018 including Rolling Stone, Stereogum, Paste Magazine and Billboard.
