A behind the scenes documentary for the Danish film, Remix, produced by Zeitgeist Film. The idea was to focus on the overall theme of the film, rather than showing clips and sharing anecdotes from the production. The documentary is made in a simple "talking heads" interview style. The feature was included in the DVD release.

I was hired by the Royal Danish Theatre to make a video design for their installment of the Oscar Wilde play, "Bunbury". The design should be used at the beginning of the play, where Oscar Wilde himself sits on the stage and surfs on the net. The movie itself does not show you anything exciting in relation to the play, but anyway, here it is...

One of my old musician colleagues and bass player, Jens Christian Nielsen, was making his debut album and I used the opportunity to go out and record a few hours of footage, which became a sort of mini-documentary - without any journalistic insights though... The original is approx. 15 minutes long. The video above is an excerpt.

Logo sequence (which movie companies show just before their film begins) for the Danish movie company, Zeitgeist.
The version you see here is from the final test movie - therefore you will see a lot of information around the logo animation (frame numbers, etc.).

I was hired by the movie company Zeitgeist to do an intro and credit sequence for a series of television shorts for the Danish Broadcasting Corporation (DR). The samples below are from my own renderings, and the static backgrounds were replaced with recorded footage and music was added.
Shown here is the credits sequence.

This little thing was made back when some old colleagues and I created the award-winning web site for the Danish underground sci-fi movie "Skyggen" (aka. "Webmaster"). Created in After Effects by only using still images and some sounds I dug up from the library.
