The Carrot

Ever since I was a kid I’ve had a love for storytelling. This manifested itself in the form of episodic drawings at first, then as I learned to write these childish illustrations were replaced by written (often bizarre) stories. But I never thought filmmaking was something I could seriously pursue. Growing up in Norway with no friends or family in the creative industry, that profession seemed like one only reserved for mythical names such as Spielberg and Tarantino. But that changed when I enrolled in the Film Course at Arts University Bournemouth, where I specialized in Directing. Suddenly I was surrounded by like-minded people and what had always felt like a pipe dream suddenly felt attainable. Since graduation I’ve done many jobs within film, but most of all, I’ve worked as a freelance editor. Something I believe has helped improve my storytelling abilites massively. And troughout the years I have of course continued to hone my writing and my personal work which most recently lead to The Carrot.
