Biography
Alec Goldberg is a director/editor working in documentary, narrative, music video and commercial spaces. With a focus on stories that have potential positive social impact, most of Alec’s documentary and narrative work centers around contexts of trauma and transformation. Working on campaigns for brands such as Porsche, Chevron, Jordan, and Off-White Goldberg balances his exploration of form and story between the different types of projects, while building an understanding of the different wings of the filmmaking and video content industries. His 2021 documentary short in partnership with Abstract Magazine featured artist Thai Mainhard and has since been screened at numerous festivals and shows, including being featured during the keynote presentation for the LA Art Show. In 2023/24 Alec is releasing his first feature film ‘Sitting in the Fire’. The same year he’s releasing short films: ‘What Happened to You’ [Semi-Finalist Cannes Indie Shorts Awards], and ‘Movers’ [Winner of Copenhagen Film Festival]; all with trauma and transformation at the core of the stories.

From the Judges, on WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU
The cinematography and colour grade carry a soft, considered warmth, and the boxed framing and fitting score give this short a texture all its own. Its act structure lands cleanly, with interviews that let the subjects find their way toward humour as a means of moving through grief, a concept the panel found both original and deeply relatable. It struck them as beautiful and uplifting work, with a production value that stands as an ode to the stories it holds.
