Born in Austin, Texas to his French-Moroccan mother Madeleine and German father Hans-Michael, Mikael Schallock sought the limelight early and often offering up renditions of Elvis Presley hits wearing little more than a cowboy hat and diapers. He would relocate with his family to Berlin in 1996 and proceeded to explore his passion for the arts. Only in 2010 did he cross over into film while interning at Concept AV, a post-production film studio. This led to a production assistant gig at Medea Film, where he would get to know actor / filmmaker Ulli Lommel. They would go on to make numerous films together until Lommel's passing in December 2017. Mikael is a proverbial jack-of-all-trades assuming the role of actor, cinematographer, editor, writer and other creative faculties. Show less «
