A Studio of One: Nick Shaheen’s Motion Capture and Visual Effects Process With Wacom Movink

January 29, 2025

We asked Nick Shaheen to test and review the new Wacom Movink 13 OLED creative pen display, but what we didn’t expect was a love letter to portability. Check out his short, but dynamic and beautiful review of the device below.



As an independent writer, director, motion graphics designer, and visual effects artist, Nick is no stranger to the demands of multi-disciplinary creative work. His projects span everything from animation and physics simulations to recreating iconic movie scenes — so he needs tools that can keep up with his ever-evolving workflow.

Instead of a traditional product review, Nick dives into how the Wacom Movink has enhanced his creative process by creating his own product trailer. The short, “A Studio of One,” focuses on Movink’s versatility and seamless integration into his high-demand projects.

As a filmmaker and visual effects enthusiast, Nick uses a wide array of industry-standard software, including Cinema 4D, ZBrush, and Blender. With the Wacom Movink, Nick explores how portability doesn’t just mean convenience, but also opens up new possibilities for creative freedom.

If you’re a creator who values mobility without sacrificing performance, maybe give the Movink a try? It’s a game changer for anyone who’s always on the move and needs a tool that matches their pace.
