Larry Nilan

Production Team

Larry stumbled into the Civic Center Studios one blustery, winter morning, and has seemingly never left. After graduating from Michigan State University, Larry’s career took him down various occupational avenues, however recently, he’s come back to his true calling. When the film industry began burgeoning in Michigan, Larry worked on several local productions, including ABC’s Detroit 1-8-7. At Civic Center TV, Larry is honing his videography and editing techniques, as well as becoming a valuable member of the event production team. In his free time, Larry has vowed to accomplish two things this summer. Start playing the guitar he bought 27 months ago that sits idly on it’s stand. And, to finally give his cat a name. But as Larry likes to say, if Kitty only responds to the shaking of the bag of cat food, is a name really necessary?!
