Since taking my first steps as director on the game Lost Tracks, I have worked as technical director and animator with various people. The projects have ranged from VR and games to minisodes and tv-series. Recent involvements include the award-winning VR film installation Nothing Happens, and the music video Lystfiskeren.
I’m attracted to projects that push the boundaries of the existing, whether it be in its format, technique or storytelling.
