Nicholas Veneroso is an Academy award winning, and Emmy Nominated Producer and Head of Production. Known for Oscar Winning Film "Two Distant Strangers" (2021), Emmy Nominated Special 'Sarah Silverman: A Speck of Dust' (2017), 'Confessions from Space: Apollo' (2019), Webby Winning 'Scheer-RL' (2015). Focusing in the comedy space with an affinity for narrative, his production background includes a myriad of projects in stand-up, animation, unscripted, talk, and live event coverage. His portfolio includes work for, and with, world-renowned networks, studios and brands such as Netflix, Hulu, MTV, TBS, Comedy Central, Discovery, HBO, Google, Food Network, YouTube, The White House (Obama), Yahoo, Tru TV, Grey Goose, OutTV, Chevy, Purina and more.
Driven by a love for bridging the gap between the business, artists' and craftsmanship, Nicholas has an instinctive understanding of project timelines and high profile sensibilities. He's able to see the "bigger picture" at a top-level, and as a skilled first AD give him a 360° vision of any program. Nicholas leads assertively and with empathy. He uses transparency as a critical tool to building trust a camaraderie between the network and the creatives. He makes important decisions quickly, maintaining communication across multiple departments, and critically, keeps a project moving forward, on time and on budget.
With a knack for delivering high production value on any budget, from smaller projects to larger scale series budgets and teams, Nicholas manages and oversees all aspects of physical production and creative problem-solving. He attributes his success as a producer to the teams that he builds - namely, bringing respectful, diverse, easy-going people onto his crew: "Supporting everyone in the project from the Executives, Talent, to the PA's with the same respect and appreciation yields the best results on screen and behind the scenes."
After graduating high school, Nicholas started off in the construction industry, steadily climbing the ladder until he began managing heavy civil engineering projects. Meanwhile, his creative career was picking up speed - he'd spend nights and weekends cutting his teeth producing and ADing short films and music videos, collaborating with different filmmakers. Eventually Nicholas dived headfirst into the film industry.
Nicholas currently belongs to the Producers Guild of America, and is a member of the Academy of Television Arts & Sciences.
