About Me





Originally from Southeast San Diego, Luke Lace is a UCLA MFA alumnus, a UCLA Graduate Opportunity Fellow, and the inaugural Atiba Jefferson Scholar through CSEF.

His films blend the wonder of skate culture with grounded stories about people navigating absurd situations. Getting his start by sneaking out the family camcorder to make skate videos, Luke weaves his work with an adoring eye for human impulse and reflection, often finding street-level surrealism and magic in the mess of everyday life.

He’s best known for his 2024 short film, Fidel,  which screened at Palm Springs ShortFest. 

Alongside his narrative directing, Luke has helmed projects for Antigravity Academy and Toyota, and has produced for Girl Skateboards under Spike Jonze.

He is currently developing his first feature.
