Today we’d like to introduce you to Nik Ferrari.
Hi Nik, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today.
Sure! I was born, very healthy. Lucky me. Moved around a little while I was in elementary school years (Montana, New Mexico, Utah) and Found an interest in filmmaking and videography/photography in my High School years.
Influenced by my dad and brother. Moved to SLC, UT in 2004. In 2007, joined a band, and became the band’s “content director/filmmaker/marketer”. From there, I began filming (“vlogging”) for the band, other people, and a charity we created as the band. Filming about 100 live shows, and everything around music and live concerts. Also, travel videos were very interesting to me.
In 2016, I became involved with real estate in Utah and created content and branded videos, heavily influenced by 90s grunge rock. Video creating became “my thing”. I worked with 100 different brands, personalities, and companies over the next few years. Everything from working with Silicon Slope start-up companies in Utah to vlogging with Wiz Kalifa, Snoop, Pia Mia, and many more artists, musicians, and influencers. Creating videos and brands for people just getting started in personal brand-building as well. That all lead me to work, currently, with PREIshare.
Which has a YouTube studio in Murray, UT where I, along with our amazing team, create the best possible content for the Syndicated Real Estate community, at large. After traveling and working abroad as well as mostly in Los Angeles, for the past 3-4 years, I’ve now relocated back to Salt Lake City, where I’m able to keep creating more of what I love to do; video creation.
Can you talk to us a bit about the challenges and lessons you’ve learned along the way? Looking back would you say it’s been easy or smooth in retrospect?
It’s never a smooth ride. Anytime it’s smooth for me, I know I’m not pushing my limits. As in life.
As you know, we’re big fans of you and your work. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about what you do?
Video creation. I’ve been inspired to create my own look and feel “The Ferrari Look” with video editing and shooting from 90’s pulp classic movies and rock bands, basically. Also. I’m heavily influenced by documentaries and ‘Behind The Scenes’. I’ve shot and edited a lot of reality videos, and I tend to simply capture what I see, and create “the real storyline” and “feel of the story” ALL in the edit.
The edit is most important to what I create. I tend to shoot a LOT more footage, from different perspectives I see others shoot, and I think that, in addition to my editing style, sets me apart from others… I’m also very easy-going and “a fly on the wall”, or so I’m told. That may help with every I do.
Is there a quality that you most attribute to your success?
Persistence. Determination. Isolation. And who I choose to let influence me. Basically…
