Lukas has been fortunate to have spent the last ten years working on documentary, commercial, and television projects, shooting all over the United States as well as Europe, Australia, Africa, China, and the Middle East. Lukas has offered his cinematography talents to a variety of successful projects including Unfiltered, a feature length documentary starring Olympian Michael Phelps ,which premiered at the Tribeca Film Festival. That effort was followed up by Last Minutes with Oden, Vimeo Festivals "Best Film of 2010", and the acclaimed Vans series "Pass the Bucket," a look into the humanitarian side of today's most celebrated action sports athletes and musicians. In his first crack at shooting commercials, Lukas got behind the camera for the Fox Sports campaign Strings, which won "Best On-Air Advertising" at the 2009 Imagen Awards. Lukas also co-directed and shot the short doc "Pennies Heart" which made the final five of the 2010 Vimeo Awards. Lukas' producing and directing debut, The Medicine Game, began in 2006 when he moved onto the Onondaga Nation in Upstate New York, and began documenting the lives of two young lacrosse phenoms. He would spend the next four months living on the reservation documenting their senior year of high school, an experience that proved life-changing for Lukas. He would return many times over the next five-years to capture their remarkable journey into adulthood. Lukas continues to direct, produce, edit and shoot various projects spanning a wide range of social causes such as awareness for immigrant rights, drug and alcohol rehabilitation, autism, and organ donation.
