“I worked closely with Peter on various dance projects over the past few years. As a choreographer and teacher you ultimately have a overall look and feel of a piece that creatively needs to be fulfilled. It's always been a pleasure to work with Peter collaboratively as he has a great eye for detail. This is so important when filming dance as the emotion of the piece needs to be converted in the film as well as the steps. Peter is so passionate about his work and this is important to me when working with a videographer. Highly recommended for all your dance video project needs!”

Senay Taormina, director/dance creative The Dark Horse Agency

“We have been working with Nexus Digital Media now for many years across a variety of brands and projects and Peter and the team have always delivered over and above the standard of what we were looking to achieve. Even with a quick turn around (Which many of our projects are) NDM always put in the time and hours to get the project complete.”

Murray Grant, Senior Creative & Theatrical Manager MSC Cruises

“I have worked with Nexus Digital Media on multiple dance projects and it’s always an exciting and positive collaboration process. Pete always understands the vision and brings his technical expertise to further the project. I’ve been delighted with the outcome every time. The work is of high quality, Pete is friendly, he creates a fun and safe environment and is extremely reliable. I highly recommend!”

Hannah Collins, dancer, actress and choreographer

“I absolutely loved working with Peter and the nexus digital media team. Their highly professional and head on approach allowed me to feel comfortable within the environment, which is crucial for creative work. The quality of the footage is top tier as well as their openness to suggestions and ideas. Overall great experience. Would highly recommend.”

Justyna Malinowska, freelance dancer, performer, choreographer and teacher

“I first worked with Peter in June 2017 while working on a short film for the MGA Academy of Performing Arts Dance Course, celebrating dance and the beautiful city of Edinburgh. Local choreographers created the movement with the backdrop of stunning locations across the city. It was clear to see Peter not only had a gift of capturing the essence and shapes of the movement, but also musicality. It was a perfect synergy of dynamics, movement and space. Since then, while I was the Head of the School of Dance, he shot all our graduate dance showreels, putting their best foot forward to gaining representation and building careers in the dance industry.”
