RICHARD CAESAR worked as a director with leading industry members like Academy Award winner Vilmos Zsigmond and producer Bernd Eichinger. He directed feature film, TV-series and theatre and wrote several screenplays in English and German. On top of this, the Munich film school (HFF) graduate is looking back at almost two decades of directing international high-end commercials.
DIRECTING. Ric’s feature film „The Calling“ was shot with international cast in Great Britain and released all over the world. Before this, Ric wrote and directed the highly awarded 40min. sci-fi “Fantasy for a New Age”, shot in Munich, Prague, on Iceland and in New York. Last but not least, Ric’s graduation film “Concierto Evolución”, was seen by over 500.000 spectators on the world fair in Seville, earned multiple international awards and was screened in more than 400 US cinemas.
Ric’s commercial work includes big international brands like L’Oréal, Nivea or Telecom, featuring celebrities like soccer legend Franz Beckenbauer or Bollywood superstar Akshay Kumar.
PHOTOGRAPHY. Ric started as a photographer and never quit his passion. In advertising, he often combines directing with photography and occasionally also works as a director/DoP.
VFX. Ric’s 40min. sci-fi “Fantasy for a New Age” was one of the first films worldwide making extensive use of software tracking in combination with 3D. Ever since, he was fascinated by the vast possibilities of VFX. Later, Ric founded the Munich postproduction boutique Lizard Lounge and ran it for five years together with East Side Effects’ Michael Huber (who then went to New York, post-producing the latest films of the Cohen Brothers, Ang Lee and others).
SCREENPLAY. Ric is writing scripts since his early film-school days. Recently he re-activated this passion. Together with his partner in life, Sabine Radebold, he wrote three 60min. episodes for the new German prime-time show “Mordsschwestern” (ndF/akzentefilm), concept & pilot for the mini-series “Annas Dämonen” (SAM Film) and several other projects still in financing (more @storybold.de).
