Moskauer Bluthund - Kallejassesauta

I made a couple of music videos for Moskauer Bluthund, reusing some old footage. This is a video for a song called Kallejassesauta. I thought that the imagery I had made for my film Reflections fitted extremely well.

Scener fra Victor B. Andersens Barndom (part one)

Last week I got contacted by a guy asking me to make a couple of films for the magazine "Victor B. Andersens Maskinfabrik". The magazine was throwing a party to celebrate the publishing of the latest issue and wanted some kind of moving tapestry for the breaks. ... and I only had a week to do it. How could I resist such a challenge?

The title roughly translates to "scenes from Victor B. Andersen's childhood." Victor B. Andersen is a fictional character, which made it a bit challenging to find pictures from his childhood...

Update: I've re-edited the film, making it tighter and replacing the background music with a less irritating tune (still by yours truly). I think it makes the film much more enjoyable and entertaining.
