Bio
Luke Lace is a multi-hyphenate filmmaker and artist.
Originally from Southeast San Diego, Luke began his journey by sneaking out the family camcorder to film his friends skateboarding, igniting a lifelong passion for images and storytelling that has taken him from the streets to the big screen. Graduating as Best Director of his class at SDSU, Luke earned early recognition, including the Graduate Opportunity Fellowship at UCLA and the inaugural Atiba Jefferson Film and Photography Scholarship through CSEF.
His films capture the warmth and absurdity of urban communities, exploring the bizarre and beautiful with sincerity. His latest short, Fidel, premiered at Palm Springs ShortFest, establishing him as a voice to watch. Luke brings a fresh perspective and a big heart to every project, reflecting the skaters he grew up with and the community that raised him.
He’s collaborated with brands like Toyota, Nike SB, OFF-WHITE, WWE, and the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego. Currently, he works as a Content Specialist at Saatchi & Saatchi.
