Mark Romanek Biography

Mark Romanek is one of the most popular and richest Director who was born on September 18, 1959 in Chicago, Illinois, United States.

Romanek released his first film, Static, in 1985. It was co-written with Gordon and starred Gordon as a man who claimed he had invented a television set capable of showing a live picture of Heaven. The film achieved something of a cult following in London and led to Romanek’s first job at the helm of a music video for the British new wave group The The, who featured on the soundtrack for Static, in 1986.

Romanek was given his first Grammy Award for Best Short Form Video in 1996 for “Scream”, a collaboration between the pop superstar siblings Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson. The video, which cost $7 million to make, is cited as one of the most expensive ever made. Romanek won his second Grammy two years later, again with Janet Jackson, for her video “Got ‘Til It’s Gone”. In 2002, Romanek shot a video for Audioslave’s “Cochise” in which the band performed in the midst of a prolonged pyrotechnic display of the intensity usually seen only during fireworks finales. The explosions were so loud during the night shoot in the San Fernando Valley that local police and fire departments received hundreds of calls from residents who feared that a terrorist attack was under way.
