Christopher M. Nicholls is an independent filmmaker based between Tokyo and London with a diverse range of experience across documentary, branded content, and commercial projects.

Equally comfortable working on large productions (past partners include HBO, Netflix, The BBC, and Disney+) as he is on smaller scale director-shooter work, Chris welcomes projects of all sizes and thrives in the collaborative nature of filmmaking.

As a filmmaker he aims to tell genuine human-driven stories that resonate with audiences through their authenticity.

His standout cinematography work on the BBC's Tokyo Olympics title sequence directed by Factory Fifteen won the BAFTA for Best Titles in 2022, as well as awards from Ciclope, British Arrows, and leading industry outlets like Campaign, Broadcast, and Shots.
