Welcome to My Portfolio

I grew up in the contrast of a small inland town and the exotic sounds and colours of my father's Pet shop. Nowadays I study digital media design at Hyper Island. It's an alternative school that focus much on group projects and hands on experience. Before Hyper Island I studied sociology and went for field studies to Bangladesh and Nepal. This was great inspiration. Colour, form and words fascinate me and putting them together in a digital form is great fun! At Hyper Island I've worked hard to develop my skills in design and making ideas come true. I'm hard working and eager to learn. If your interested to know more about me or my work, it's easy to just drop an e-mail.

 

Pineapple

This was a project where the goal was to discover new photoshop techniques that I hadn't tried before. In the beginning I played around a lot with flares and different filters attached to it. It did look good but I found that the simple version looked better.

Affärsvärlden reklamfilm

Affärsvärlden wanted a commercial that should get visitors to there new website. This was the first commercial I've done and I hope to work more in projects like this in the future. The film will be online soon.

Major IT Award

Guldmusen is the major and most well-known award in Sweden for the information technology industry. Every year they have a gala where they invite the most important people from the industry and give out their price, the golden mouse. I got the job to create the whole digital presentation for the gala night. Me and my brother created the concept of presenting the nominees through a profile, like that on Facebook. We contacted the nominees and had them answer some questions, I later used the answers to create their profiles for the presentation.

 

Graphical Elements

The Museum of Modern Art in Stockholm had an exhibition about art originating in the creative cultural climate that permeated the city of Rio de Janeiro in the late 1950s early 1960s. I created the graphical elements for movies shown on monitors in their exhibition hall. They wanted an animation where the text faded in and then out. This was a very simple project with strict guidelines when it comes to typography and colours. The feeling I had when I saw the movie inside the museum was great.

 

Logo for a webshop

This was a project with a very tight deadline because the shortage of money involved. The client wanted a fresh logo that should look trustworthy. The webshop name is Cigarett Huset (Cigarette House in english) and I thought that the shape of a cigarette package was a good way to combine the two words of the company. I think the three shapes show what the business is all about and that they have a good range of products.

 

Promotion video for Matti Makela

Mats Paulsen contacted me to edit a promotion video about the MMA fighter Matti Makela. Paulsen wanted a video that should be extremely violent and after the viewer had seen it he/she should either want to see more or become disgust. He also wanted me to focus more on the editing then on the special effects. The client was satisfied and I learned much about cutting thanks to his great response. In this project I used the following tools Final Cut, Adobe After Effects and Photoshop.

 

The Young Lions competition

I got in contact with Young Lions and they told me they had a banner competion for young creatives. So I thought this was a possibility to get some work going and to work with my friend Staffan Estberg, I contacted him and after a couple of weeks the competition started. We worked a whole weekend and came up with this interactive banner. The banner was for the non-profit organisation "Håll Sverige Rent" (Keep Sweden Clean) and they wanted an online campaign that should inform teenagers that littering is also a climate threat. The project was great fun in much thanks to gettyimages who let everyone use their database infinite.
