About
We’re storytellers, and you’ve got a story to tell. We’re image makers, and a picture is worth a thousand words. We’re collaborators, and two heads are always better than one.
We love to craft innovative concepts and transform them into captivating realities through seamless, hassle-free production.
Whether you’re thinking big budget, brand-defining epic or high-quality, low-cost retail, we provide a stress-free, affordable production experience from pre-production to filming and from editing to post-production.
Cartel was founded by Director Gerard Lambkin. One of only a handful of directors to be awarded full accreditation as a cinematographer by the Australia Cinematographers Society, Gerard’s unique skill set combines an eye for inspirational visuals with a natural talent for storytelling.
His assured but light touch and complete dedication to his craft make him a delight to work with and an extremely versatile filmmaker.
Gerard’s work has been recognised internationally at many festivals including the New York Festivals Awards, Mobius Awards and ACS Awards, and his everyday-epic short film Great Adventures won Best in Show and Best Narrative at The One Show’s One Screen Festival.
We recognise the First Peoples of this Nation and their ongoing cultural and spiritual connections to the lands, waters, seas, skies, and communities.
We acknowledge First Nations Peoples as the Traditional Custodians and Lore Keepers of the oldest living culture and pay respects to their Elders past and present. We extend that respect to all First Nations Peoples.
