I'm Dalin Nelson...
I work with tourism boards, hotels and resorts, and travel brands that are refreshing their website or growing their social media, and I deliver on time and on budget. Every project is run like a film set, a habit from years as a Production Manager and 1st Assistant Director managing multi-location shoots with SAG-AFTRA talent, stunt vehicles, animals, and tight turnarounds on indie and corporate productions. I also led the team behind the short film "2008," which won the Audience Choice Award at NFFTY 2025. I studied directing at Columbia College Chicago, as 1 of 6 students selected for the competitive directing track. Tell me what you're planning. Book a call!
