INFO ABOUT ME


I'm a 30 years old Danish director and visual effects artist.

Besides being an established artist in the VFX industry I work as a director of animation and live action. I am part of a tightly knit group of individuals dedicated to producing high quality fiction that engages both the mind and eyes of its audience. I work within and outside the established state supported funds for film in Denmark - sometimes financing films myself to try out new ideas or get small projects off the ground a bit faster.

I always strive to improve my work and spend a fair share of my time developing new projects. Check my showreel and shortfilms to see samples of my work.

I am available for hire as a director and/or visual FX artist.



PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE

For the past decade I have worked on tv spots and commercials for clients including: Zentropa, Designit, LEGO, Sunquick, Novo Nordisk, DR, Sunset, TDC, Føtex, Jysk, University of Aalborg, Energy Service Denmark, Maybelline, RTX Telecom and Arla. Besides commercials I have done work on music videos for artists such as Infernal, Grand Avenue and others.

A large part of my work has consisted of look development, proof of concept tests, R&D and providing technical solutions to a variety of production related challenges.
