The legend @justinwcraig and I had the great fortune to spend some time up @vineyardarts this summer with an artist residency. An absolutely amazing place.
We left our residency feeling inspired and super excited about what we’ve been workin’ on. Thanks for having us @vineyardarts

Here’s the trailer for PACKAGES, my first short film. Watch it full size at the link in bio, and stay tuned for more. Infinite gratitude to the village of humans below who made it happen!
——
Packages is the debut project from first-time writer / director Nick Barat.
Described as a “nightmare comedy” and “Franz Kafka with an Amazon Prime account,” this short film is the latest creative evolution for Nick, who has spent two decades in culture as a DJ/producer, graphic designer, co-founder of Fool’s Gold Records and editor at The FADER Magazine.
“With my background, it would have been obvious to start with a film about ‘music,’ but Packages is still very much my sensibility, my rhythm and the way I see the world. It’s an exploration of dream logic and visual storytelling – stylized, surreal and satirical, mashing up genres while cracking some jokes in the process.”
Packages is currently submitting to film festivals for a premier in 2026.
