We had the good fortune of connecting with Nino Pace and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Nino, any advice for those thinking about whether to keep going or to give up?
Julian (Lead Actor)

You don’t give up. It’s not an option.

Can you open up a bit about your work and career? We’re big fans and we’d love for our community to learn more about your work.
Nino (Writer/Director)

I recently wrapped up my film and television production program at Full Sail University June ‘23. I’ve always been a film enthusiast, I love going to the theater and making a night of it.

My children are into the experience as well. We have movie night at home nearly every weekend. Our first date as a couple with my now wife was going to see Pirates of the Caribbean. Both of us are huge Johnny Depp fans.

And I think arts and culture is in my bloodline because I have multiple artists and musicians on my mother’s side of the family.

If you had a friend visiting you, what are some of the local spots you’d want to take them around to?
George (Actor)

Downtown is where it’s at! Us Michiganders are lucky, we have like 4-5 ‘downtowns’ within a 20 mile radius lol, maybe downtown detroit in the afternoon, grab a supinos pizza, head back up through ferndale, grab some dinner, maybe one eyed Bettie’s, then head back up to Royal oak for some evening fun

The Shoutout series is all about recognizing that our success and where we are in life is at least somewhat thanks to the efforts, support, mentorship, love and encouragement of others. So is there someone that you want to dedicate your shoutout to?
Nino (writer/director)

My shoutout will always go to my wife, my kids, my parents and my in-laws. Without them and their support at the house whenever I schedule a day or evening to film, this couldn’t be possible.

I love knowing that things are in good hands when I get the opportunity to work on a project. The level of confidence they all give me is an incredible feeling.
