Eric Steelberg

He most recently filmed the highly lauded drama “Up In The Air,” his second picture with director Jason Reitman and their second film to be nominated for an Oscar® for Best Picture, the first being the critically acclaimed comedy “Juno.”
Prior to that, Steelberg collaborated with director Marc Webb on the offbeat romantic comedy “(500) Days of Summer,” starring Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon-Levitt, and also shot “Bandslam,” starring Vanessa Hudgens, David Bowie and Lisa Kudrow under the direction of Todd Graff.
Steelberg initially found theatrical achievement with the ALMA Award-winning “Quinceañera,” which won both the Grand Jury Prize and the Audience Award at the 2006 Sundance Film Festival, as well as the John Cassavetes Award at the Independent Spirit Awards.
A native of Los Angeles, Steelberg’s roots are in black-and-white photography. At the age of 16 he shot his first short film, which won two national awards and one international award. He continued to refine his talent lensing various short film projects, including numerous music videos and more than 75 commercials.
