 Most recent Forsberg shot Universal NBC's Pilot "Line of Fire", marking his second collaboration with showrunner Josh Safran following Gossip Girl. Directed by Rebecca Thomas and starring Peter Krause, the series premieres in September.

 Crille Forsberg’s intuitive, kinesthetic cinematography is deeply shaped by his background as a skateboarder, surfer, and former professional skier. Having worked both in front of and behind the camera on ski movies in Chamonix endows him with a unique perspective on movements and it's impact on storytelling. 

 On set, this agility translates into creative freedom for directors. Driven by a deep fascination for storytelling, Forsberg utilizes swift, unobtrusive lighting alongside deep Steadicam and gimbal expertise to ensure technical setups never compromise momentum—fostering collaboration around the narrative while holding space for the actors
