According to the Biblical covenants, it is forbidden for a person to bury his talents in the ground. In modern conditions, every intelligent creature has many opportunities to reveal and realize their abilities. A vivid example of this is the biography of Nikolai Serdtsev.
Childhood and youth
The song, once popular, but forgotten today, contains words that young people are dear to us everywhere. To a large extent, this slogan reflected the true state of affairs. The future actor and television presenter Nikolai Nikolaevich Serdtsev was born on January 25, 1970 in an ordinary Soviet family. Parents lived in the city of Leningrad. My father worked at the famous "Kirovsky Zavod", where tractors and other equipment for agriculture were produced. My mother, a general practitioner by profession, was a receptionist in one of the district polyclinics.
The boy grew and developed like all ordinary children. When the age approached, he was enrolled in the Miguel de Cervantes gymnasium with in-depth study of foreign languages. Nikolai chose English. Already in the elementary grades, he showed an aptitude for the humanities. History became Serdzhev's favorite subject. At that time, interest in the events of the past coincided with a love of reading. As a student at the gymnasium, Kolya read dozens, if not hundreds, of books of a historical orientation. The teenager was filled with a thirst to share the information he had received.
In high school, Serdtsev, like all serious peers, began to think about choosing a profession. After some deliberation, he decided to enter the history department of the Leningrad Pedagogical Institute. In his student years, Nikolai did not give up his hobbies. I tried to travel in the summer as part of a student construction brigade to remote areas of the Leningrad region. Communicated with residents and wrote down interesting facts from the past. And also, inspired by the harsh nature of the Russian north, he wrote poetry.
Serdzhev, who received a higher pedagogical education, was drafted into the ranks of the armed forces. In the army, he had to deal not only with guard duty, but also educational work. Nikolai organized sports and cultural events, issued war leaflets. After demobilization, he was invited to the regional bureau of the NTV channel in St. Petersburg. At the same time, Serdtsev entered the economic department of VGIKA, from which he graduated in 2002, having received the second profession of "film and television producer."
TV projects
By the mid-90s, new TV channels and programs began to appear in Russia. Knowledge of English and German helped Serdtsev to get in touch with colleagues from Germany. For six years he worked as a producer of the German television ZDF in Moscow and St. Petersburg. At that time, it was difficult for foreign viewers to understand the processes that were taking place in Russia. Nikolai had to make great efforts to combine video sequences and comments in his materials. Several times he went on assignment from a television company to Afghanistan, where he filmed stories about how NATO soldiers serve there.
In 2003, when hostilities began in Iraq, special correspondent Serdtsev spent nine months in the territory covered by the war. Returning to Russia, he switched to TVS as a producer and correspondent for the "New Age" program. By that time, programs of various kinds appeared on television, in which participants fought for cash prizes. For several months, Nicolay hosted the program "About Money" on one channel and "Personal Interest" on the other. Communicating with colleagues, he began to pay attention to the processes that took place on the set of films and TV series. And he even took a course in acting from one of the venerable directors.
Movie roles
Serdtsev's television career was quite successful. However, in search of new experiences, he decided to take up creativity on the movie screen. The first film "I am a bodyguard" was released in 2008, where Nikolai played a cameo role. It should be noted that the seasoned TV journalist deliberately followed the path of a novice film actor. From separate episodes, which last three seconds, he moved up to a supporting role in the films "Own Team" and "Web". And, according to the laws of the genre, he got the main role in the series Signs of Fate.
It should be noted that an actor rarely has the opportunity to choose a suitable role for himself. The directors are engaged in this business. Judging by the work of Serdtsev in cinema, the Russian stage directors are professionals in their field. Nikolay convincingly presented the head of the district police on the screen in the crime drama "Family Detective". Psychologically accurately conveyed the state of the teacher in the thriller "Closed School". The actor began to be recognized on the street and in other public places after the films "Love without insurance" and "Shapovalov".
Personal life scenario
As is usual in the modern information field, a keen, at times inappropriate interest is shown to the actor's personal life. It should be emphasized that Nikolai does not make a secret of this kind of information. "Not encrypted," as some fans put it. If you tell too much, then gossip will appear. With a lack of evidence, stakeholders will fantasize.
Nikolay Serdtsev is legally married. A husband and wife are raising and raising two children, a son and a daughter. The son loves animals and takes care of cats without reminders. The daughter graduated from the Gnessin Music Academy. Ahead of her are the difficulties of professional development and family creation. Time will tell how events will develop.
