About Nicholas Ward

I’m Nicholas Ward, a Los Angeles based line producer, production manager, and consultant with more than a decade of production management experience.

Experience

I spent more than nine years as Head of Production at Herzog & Company from 2015 through 2024. I oversaw projects from early development, budgeting, scheduling, and staffing through production, post, client relationships, and final delivery.

My work spans documentary television, streaming series and specials, branded content, digital production, live events, and independent media. I have worked as a line producer, executive in charge of production, production manager, and consultant.

Through My Media Budget, I help independent content creators, filmmakers, agencies, studios, production companies, and corporate teams develop realistic budgets and practical production plans.
