Nelson R. Monterrosa
Filmmaking is my passion, but I always thought I wasn’t good enough. I was sadly mistaken when I saw the work I shot and the smiles and awes I created when I showed it off. Ever since then, I saw to never give up making something better. I push to bringing out only quality content. Only that can truly bring out the most honest reactions.
Film Projects
Unexpected Meeting
A school project that was shot in my first year. I didn’t have to much production credit since I was the main actor. I did end up editing some of the shots and also brought up many ideas, most which came into fruition like a tracking shot on a library cart we used as a dolly, and the Spongebob theme we used since we could only have music in our edit. (That was the year the creator of Spongebob Stephen Hillenburg died so we also thought to add this music as a small homage and pay our respects since he did influence the whole group’s childhood.)
The Problems with the Light Rail
This is a documentary filmed for the commuting student body of NJCU. The Westside Ave light-rail station was closed due to construction and students would’ve needed a new way to commute to campus. This short video explains the problem of what happens and also provides some alternatives to getting to campus. Other than the narration, everything was shot and edited by me.
Personal Projects
These are a few personal projects I’ve worked on with my friends.
The Rogue Wizard
Rogue Wizard was shot back in high school and was written and directed by me, but the special effects were from the help of, my high school friend from back in the day.
Spirit Awakens
Spirit Awakens is a series that is fully collaborative. Shooting, acting, and editing is shared equally. This is one of the episode I acted and edited.
