When i was 10-12 and started editing gaming clips.

I have always know I wanted to work in creative industries. My whole life I could never leave a sheet of paper blank, and would spend my time admiring video games and movies!

I started working with some 3d and vfx in highschool witch started my interest and dream of working with visual effects. After highchool i applied for a bachelor in visual effects at Kristiania University College where i got more into compositing and visual effects.

I grew up watching a lot of movies and when I came upon a video talking about VFX, I realized that I could make cool stuff for movies as a job. I then started to explore what was possible and decided to pursue it. It started with 3D which evolved into more compositing.

Transformers and Avatar sparked an interest in movies for me as a kid. And that interest just kept growing. I used to shoot my own Lego stop-motion videos through my iPhone 4, and I started to realize I may have some talent. The standard courses through school wasn't entirely for me, and made me certain I wanted a career within creative industries.

When I was fourteen and went to a four day After Effects course. What he created looked like magic and I had to learn it.

I have always been fascinated by the inner workings of the entertainment industry. Specific 3d animation and visual effects bit. When I finished all normal school it didn't quite show what I wanted to do, so I chose to apply to a slightly different school, but then ended up going to a 3d and animation school. Since then, 2 years have passed and I'm in love with this subject and I know now that this is i wanna do in the foreseeable future.

In school year of 2021/22 when I made two shortfilms with friends.

I realized I wanted to work in this industry when I was about 16 years old, entering high school.

I first realised by growing up with cartoons and animation, and wanted to experiment and develop my skills in sketching, modelling and animation.

I have always loved dabbling with modding games and creating cinematics using games. Eventually I moved on to animation softwares and had a lot of fun with them, and it escalated from there.

I was a child actor for NRK when i was 6-8 years. Remember they took me to the animation room and i was hooked.

I wanted to share my joy and passion for creating and to experience how it is to work alongside others to bring a project to life.

I first caught an interest for this field of work by watching animation films as a kid! First from Disney and Pixar movies, and then also caught an interest for the Marvel movies. I always thought it would be such a cool thing to have my own name in the post credits of such big movies. So that is what made me want to start learn how to model 3D object and now 3D animation as well!

Growing up I was always interested in making movies, whether it be action and adventure films with my brother, or hand-made stop motion films with legos. Throughout it all, I wanted to learn visual effects and implement it into my movies. Being short on money and tech knowledge, that never came about. Years later, I find myself studying Visual Effects, making stuff the young me could only dream of!

I've always loved being creative and working with technology. Visual effects have been the perfect way for me to combine being logical and artistic in the best way possible.

I've always had a passion for movies and films, so when I started editing in my spare time I realized I wanted to take a similar path.

I first realised it when I was watching some of the marvel movies, and i saw how much VFX there is in the movies. Because of that I wanted to start learning about it.

I worked in radio and realised that i wanted to have a more visually creative job.

I used to love animation films and heavy vfx films when i was little. When i was 14 - 15 I decided that i wanted to be able to create the same effects and inspire others.
