Known for thoughtful, character-driven storytelling and hands-on production in the Pacific Northwest, Gary has written, directed and edited six original features including CALVIN MARSHALL, REDWOOD HIGHWAY and the forthcoming PELICAN, an ensemble that explores mid-life relationships and mental health in the wild beauty of the Oregon Coast.

Variety called PHOENIX, OREGON “the sort of movie a lot of us need right now.” Joma Films shared online profits with shuttered movie theaters and film festivals after its 2020 theatrical release was canceled by the Covid-19 pandemic, making it the number one movie in America for three weeks.

In 2024, Gary’s latest ABOVE THE TREES played film festivals and enjoyed theatrical engagements across the country. Oregon ArtsWatch called it “part character study, part courtroom drama with a hint of metaphysical sparkle.” And Willamette Week wrote, “…Lundgren traces a tragedy’s aftershocks and twists of fate. The crime drama depicts the steamrolling momentum of the legal system and shines an even brighter light on the fragile human lives held in its sway.” In his forthcoming guide book Films for Spiritual Inspiration, Timothy Conway PhD. called Above the Trees “a nuanced work of subtle yet deeply touching power.” Now available on BluRay and streaming at Joma.Film .

Gary was the DP and editor of the hilarious new Duplass Brothers series THE LONG LONG NIGHT. (Tribeca/SXSW). Gary has fifteen editing credits, including the award-winning feature docs WHEN GIANTS FALL, EARTH SEASONED and DEAF SANTA CLAUS.

“I love filmmaking. I'm drawn to meaningful stories and complex characters. Unique people who march to the beat of their own drum. I love seeing a strong cast and crew come together — generally people who are as kind as they are talented. What a thrill to play a creative role in shaping a new cinematic world — watching it all come to life through each tricky phase of production.”
