Litago posters for Norways national day

Wow, so long since theres been a post in here! Any way here is some new stuff I've been working with.

In combination with the Norwegian national day, 17 May, me and Anna created together with Animasjonsdepartementet 2 awesome posters for Norway's biggest milk brand, Tine. The photographer was Axel Bauer. Everything is made in camera and with very minimal post editing.

They have received great response from all over. Check out how they look in the streets. Really popping out! We and the rest are very satisfied with the result!

Here is some pictures from the making!

Ye!

But Milk Is Important - Trailer

The Crow Who Wore A Suit And Worked In An Office - online? wat

I was supposed to put it up here for some time ago but so much things have been going on lately.
This is the short film I made in the spring semester when I attended an exchange programme to Glamorgan University in Cardiff, Wales, 2011!
Due to time limitations I didnt get to do everything I wanted but thats how it goes with ambitious thinking at times.
If you have not seen it then take a look, its only gonna take 3:43 out of your life!

Feeling misplaced and trapped in an environment where he doesn't belong, he dreams of doing what he always wanted. This is the story of the crow who wore a suit and worked in an office.

Btw I am going to Annecy in June. Me and Anna where so lucky that we got our film in the Graduation competition programme! This is super cool and we're really looking forward to get down there, meet people and check out other great films!

Showreel and award!

Its been a good while since I wrote anything here on my personal blog. Most of the updates have been at the production blog for our Bachelor film.
But yes, we finished the film last year and it has got the chance to get screened at some festivals already! :)
We won our 1st award at the Fredrikstad Animation Festival in the category "Best Nordic- Baltic Student Film"!! That was a huge motivational boost for us as we had been working day and night for over a year.

And btw.
Here is my showreel I made in late 2012! Take a looksy! I will also try to update this site more often!
