Configure Nginx for aws s3 static and media files

Question

I am using aws s3 for static and media files for my django app. Gunicorn and Nginx are being used for application and proxy server.

Nginx setup:

server {
    listen 80;
    server_name sitename.com;

    location / {
        include proxy_params;
        proxy_pass http://unix:/home/SiteNameDjango/myproject/myproject.sock;
    }
}

Since I am using aws s3 for my static and media files, how should I configure Nginx for my static location? Or there's no need to configure for the static and media files?

If it helps, here is the Django project settings for aws s3:

STATICFILES_LOCATION = 'static'
MEDIAFILES_LOCATION = 'media'
STATICFILES_STORAGE = 'myproject.custom_storages.StaticStorage'
DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE = 'myproject.custom_storages.MediaStorage'
AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME = "django-bucket"
AWS_S3_CUSTOM_DOMAIN = AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME + ".s3.amazonaws.com"
STATIC_URL = "https://" + AWS_STORAGE_BUCKET_NAME + ".s3.amazonaws.com/"
MEDIA_URL = STATIC_URL + "media/"
ADMIN_MEDIA_PREFIX = STATIC_URL + "admin/"

Eg url:

https://django-bucket.s3.amazonaws.com/media/user_image/1497598249_49.jpeg

In case of S3, nginx is not responsible for serving static and media files and you no need to configure anything.
