Rob Lundberg’s “Uncontaminated Sound – The Interviews” EP #68 w/ Producer Jamee Ranta

Guided by artistic desire and a true lover of artistry in all of its forms, Robert Lundberg has become a highly regarded photographer and filmmaker lauded for his innovative and versatile documentaries covering the worlds of music, comedy, art, and film. After spending his early years in Massachusetts, Lundberg moved to New York City. It was here that he more actively pursued a full-time career in art and film. Uniquely focused on seeking out the next big artistic challenge, Lundberg chose to pursue one of his most ambitious projects in 2020. It was this year he launched a new documentary series entitled Uncontaminated Sound – The Interviews.

Debuting in 2020, the series follows comedians, musicians, fine artists, and actors. Lundberg’s primary goal is to gain particular insight into their creative processes, which can only be thoroughly deciphered by truly going behind the scenes. With Uncontaminated Sound, Lundberg’s purpose is to offer an intimate look into all of the rarely seen or known “little things” that take place during interviews and other similar social and private interactions with artists and performers. Mainstream features are often heavily and unevenly edited, offering viewers only individual, preferred moments. In contrast, Lundberg is dedicated to delivering to you all of the real, raw, authentic moments that you would never otherwise have the opportunity to experience.

We’re thankful to have Lundberg back again with his third episode back of Uncontaminated Sound since returning from a hiatus. Today, he is joined by Jamee Ranta, an individual who has had a brilliant career so far. Ranta is a Grammy-nominated producer and the CEO of Artifact Content. Artifact is a multimedia production company she founded in 2017. In this role, she develops and produces content for feature films, short films, web series, and documentaries. Some of her more recent projects include producing Halsey’s If I Can’t Have Love, I Want Power accompanying film.

As a music video producer, Ranta is most frequently recognized for her work with international superstar artists like Justin Bieber, Lana Del Rey, Jennifer Lopez, Demi Lovato, Lana Del Rey, Cardi B, and Kendrick Lamar. She has also produced content for Marvel, Coca-Cola, Pepsi, L’Oréal, and McDonald’s. Also a lover of fashion, Ranta has produced editorial works with Allure, Vogue, and Harper’s Bazaar.

Discussing his recent chat with Ranta, Lundberg states:

“Let’s go back to December 20th 2022…

I’m a bit nervous I’m about to jump online with LA-based producer Jamee Ranta and CEO of Artifact Content, whom not only broke down the barriers for female creatives in the film-music-television industries, but has built up a legendary resume that has led to multiple award nominations and wins.

Working with the likes of Justin Bieber, Cardi B, Halsey, Nicki Minaj, The Weeknd, DJ Khaled, and a laundry list of more top tier talent. Jamie has produced an eco-system of well known content spanning from television, documentaries, web series, short films, and feature length films, affirming her legacy in the industry.

We discuss her journey, the challenges she faced attempting to break in, visual language, and how she gives back to the community she so values.

So please enjoy this backlogged conversation.”

With his return, Lundberg has more interviews to come with acclaimed artists. He has also brought you his ongoing series Uncontaminated Sound, which takes a look behind the scenes to get a look at performers before they take the stage. The series has featured Macklemore’s Gemini Tour featuring Eric Nally (formerly of Foxy Shazam) and Xperience, the late Louie Anderson, Sinbad, Ron English, We Are Scientists, Rufus Wainwright, and more. Lundberg’s photography has been highlighted in publications such as Huffington Post, Paste Magazine and more.
