Marcel

Recent films that Lundberg wrote, produced and directed for some of the nation's leading and most prestigious non-profit (501c3) organizations have gained tremendous recognition and resulted in 3 Telly awards.

For documentary interviews, Lundberg has sat with such notables as former V.P. Al Gore, Bobby Kennedy Jr., David Rockefeller Sr., ecologist and climate scientist George Woodwell, NRDC founder John H. Adams, Nobel Peace Prize winning physician-scientist Eric Chivian, Dean of the Columbia School of Journalism Nick Lemann, 5-time national AIA award winning architect Lee Mindel, and more.

Lundberg founded marcelfilm in 2005 with the intent of utilizing expertise culled from 20+ years in film, commercial and music video production to focus on commissioned short documentary-style films for artists, non-profits, corporations, and high net-worth individuals.

With a developed style that Lundberg refers to as “Cinematic Video”, he utilizes as many of the principles of 35mm film image acquisition as can be applied to video in order to successfully retain much of the emotional and artistic values familiar to film. Allowing the newest technologies to drastically streamline and reduce the necessary impact of professional moving image acquisition, Lundberg is actively pursuing the reshaping of our expectations of video content.

The result is a modern interview style that is, so far, not seen anywhere else in this market. Approaching shooting video as Design, with each element holding a meaningful place informing the whole, Lundberg's films are the "anti-corporate style" films that Corporations and Organizations, big and small, are seeking to produce in order to infuse emotional resonance into messages, and positively affect many different audiences.

In his most recent film for the Rockefeller Family Fund, Lundberg succinctly celebrates forty years of innovative philanthropy. For the most recent seven minute film he made for prestigious luxury bath company Waterworks, the film made for the purpose of educating and motivating the entire sales staff in 38 stores nationwide, he weaves seemingly disparate elements of art, architecture and utility into inspirationally illuminated key points for sales initiatives.

Lundberg began his career in physical production working as a production coordinator, and then production manager and finally producer on numerous national commercials and Music Videos, lastly at RSA/USA in Los Angeles on Marcus Nispel's production team. A stint working for Barry Sonnenfeld on the films GET SHORTY and MEN IN BLACK along with other film and music video production work have solidified Lundberg's firm knowledge in every area of film and video production from budgeting to editing.
