Request a demoNicolás Muñoz Documentary Filmmaker & DOP | Buenos Aires, Argentina. Nico studied photography and cinematography at ORT schools, later specializing in documentary filmmaking at INA (France), and honing his craft at UBA (Argentina) and Maine Media College (USA). At age 24, after graduating from film school, he began a 13-year career as a correspondent for Associated Press Television. Covering breaking news across Latin America and beyond, Muñoz reported from extraordinary places and captured urgent, human-centered stories. In 2014, he shifted his focus from news to longform documentary work, channeling his journalistic experience into a visual storytelling style that blends strong imagery, emotion, and narrative clarity—even in complex or sensitive environments. Hework between documentary and poetry, rescuing the intimate and forgotten to give them meaning with a bold, personal narrative.

It's always a pleasure to work with Nico. He went above and beyond to get all the footage we needed, even taking the initiative to bring a drone on the shoot. All his shots are beautiful, and carefully thought to allow us to edit into sequences. He also has a great journalistic sense, asking follow-up questions to our interviewees, asking them to repeat answers when needed, etc. We'll definitely work with Nico again, we know we're in great hands with him.

This is the third shoot we've done with Nico, and as always, he's gone above and beyond the assignment. We had to film two pieces to camera for a documentary, and he made sure that we were happy with the framing and setup of the interview, sending us photos of different location options. He was extremely patient and ensured audio and lighting were excellent.

Nico was extremely professional, we are very happy with the footage he delivered, which was of top quality. He's very detailed oriented and creative. He went the extra mile getting all the shots we asked for and delivered all the footage promptly. We'd definitely work with him again.
