Please go HERE for the new blog.
My new website will be spilt into four parts:
My Blog
My Portfolio
My CV
and my crazy idea: The Archive.
The Archive is an idea of using all the web 2.0 sharing sites, like YouTube, Veoh, Flickr etc. and put all my digital media online and make this portal “The Archive” where all these services are easily accessible. I will try and sort the sites by the way you access them, ie. RSS and podcasts etc. In other words, you will be able to either view, download or subscribe to any of the media.
It’s not all done yet, but Im working hard on getting it ready asap.
On another note, I’m now almost finished with my film My Singing Girl. I pretty much have the locked picture, the music is sorted, the titles, visual fx and rollers are in place. Now only the final it’s only the final track laying, grading and sound post which is needed. This final step will be done out in Beaconsfield at the NFTS.
]]>Long time no blog…huh
Well I had myself a little tour of London today and here is the spoils:










Here are the first stills:





Finally the January Jaunt music video is finished. We screened it saturday night at the chocolate factory at January Jaunt’s Album Release party in Århus and right after the guys gave an awesome one hour concert!

Had a great day today! I finished and handed in my application for the NFTS directors Masters course! and I started casting for my next film “My Singing Girl”. I loved getting back into directing. It’s such a kick! I know that this is what I want to do for the rest of my life. We went through a simple scene and just used improv for most of the dialog and action. I also found that I got loads of good ideas for the scene just from watching the actors make up stuff!
Also, We’ve almost finished Malika’s application film. We worked thoughout last night finishing the special effects and doing the titles. I still haven’t heard from her if she’s actually finished it for tomorrow (the application deadline) but I’m sure she’ll make it. The shot above is from malika’s film and the youtube video underneeth is one of our special effects test we did before shooting the film.
]]>
Im shooting from the 28th May for 5 days. Can’t wait!
]]>YouTube:
Quicktime:
I made a little video of trip, even though its more of an arty music video than proper documentation of the trip and the festival. Enjoy:

Quicktime:
Mmmmm two weeks off
]]>Just watched a great live mimas video on YouTube of Mimas - One of my favorite bands! check it out:

Rock on guys!
]]>Im much better now and I am currently working on my first Personal Project at school. I have finished my treatment for my film and I am working on the casting and location scouting at the moment. I don’t have much time though as I will be shooting next week. Im not too worried about the time issue as I have gotten a good producer, James Heath, to help me out and I have my dream team for a crew: Bertil Mulvad on camera and Steen Bondrop on sound. I will try and update some more over the next few days on how everything is progressing. That is if I don’t get too stressed… lol
]]>With me luck!
PS. I have started putting up my animations onto YouTube, so go and have a look, my handle is hann992
]]>Im still alive, but only barely… I’ve been sick for the past week and a half, going back to achool asap…
Wish me well.

Back in early december when I went back to denmark to attend the premiere of “Maria”, my last short film, I met up with the guys from January Jaunt and thay said that they, FINALLY, wanted me to make a decent music video for them. We then started talking ideas and it all ended up with me pulling one of my old ideas out of the hat. The whole concept is a bit weird, so bare with me:
The whole concept is that they boys will be playing in a studio where serveral studio camera’s will be filming them. Next we have a guy to produce the images and mix in a mit of graphics once in awhile, finally this is all projected onto them. They wore some white shirts and t-shirts so we could see the motives on them and best of all… It all worked!
We shot the video last wedensday and everything went well. The guys must have played the song over 40 times that day (evening/night/next morning) and we got everything on tape. HDCAM tape!!! hehe
Anyway, The video is being edited at the moment and when I get the word from the band I will release it on my site. I will see if I can’t be allowed to show off the dummy video I did of it.
Thats it.
]]>This first one was for a info meeting about film schools:

This other one was about a film I wanted to do:

Nuff said. see the video
Been awhile, yet again, since I posted and as the title states, it’s become a practicle statistic that I post about 5 posts a month. But all the stupid coincidences aside!
It’s christmas and I have finished school for this year. I’m already back home in good ole’ Denmark to chill out and spend time with friends and family. The school ended with a BANG! We had Gilles MacKinnon come around and talk to us and the day before we had an Oliver Stone masterclass, so it’s been great! I’m still working on my final exercise of this year, our Spanish Steps films, but it’s still not there in the editing.
In the past few months I have been making a lot of music and I’m absolutely loving it! So I have actually put together a little collection which I’m just about ready to showcase. So I will be making some music videos over X-Mas featuring my own music.
]]>Long time no blog. At school we’ve been given a new exercise called The Spanish Steps. We have to make a 3-Hander scene (A scene with three characters) and this time we can write dialog in, so its at a whole new level now! I presented my idea to our teachers last thursday and they seemed to like it, so I’ve gone ahead and started writing the script, but as it is right now, it’s too long! or atleast I think so. Usually we say a minute a page, and we have been given the maximum length of 5 minutes, and… well you guessed it, I am over 5 pages… I have to present my script on wedensday, so then I will find out if its a problem, thats unless I sort it out by myself before then.
The second thing I wanted to blog about was that my last film project, Maria, has finally come to a close and we are screening it for the first time on the 9th of December! This is going to happen at ØST FOR PARADIS (East of eden) art cinema in Århus at ten o’clock, and YES I will be able to make it! awesome! Maria, for me has been one of the best film making experiences that I have had in a long time, and thats no mystery since we had an awesome producer, a great crew and cast, and last but least, Its one of Kasper Skovsbøls ideas, script and his great personality as one of the main characters! Im sure I have blogged about the film before, so look it up.
Finally I wanted to start a new tradition on my site, a show of my mobile phone photos. This ofcause means lousy quality, but it also fun because there are so many “moments” among them, a special kind of sponanity about them… or maybe its just because I was drunk while taking them… who knows… they are fun nevertheless! Enjoy:

Some of the most important stuff I brought back with me has been my external harddrives! I have my entire portfolio on there aswell as a lot of current and unfinished projects which I thought would be nice to have around. I also have a collection of editing, photo and sound resources like sound effects archive, photoshop templates for EVERYTHING and lots of other stuff.
I was digging through one of my old drives and found a film that I had completely forgotten that I ever made! So I decided to upload it and if you click the iPod Quicktime logo below this post you can watch it, or you could also do it the right way and subscribe to my PodCast! (click Subscribe in the upper righthand corner of the site for more info!)





We finished shooting our films now, I will post post on location pics soon, and here are some of the pics from us preparing on location:


I just got back from Denmark, was home to visit friends and family but also to pick up some stuff for my new place. Its in Bethnal Green which is in the Shoreditch area, really nice place. Today we’re starting our first exercises. The exercise we’re doing is called The “Breakfast” exercise and its basicly a breakfast scenerio. The special thing with this one is that we are not to use ANY dialog. I already got the idea for my film, so today I will be discussing it with the rest of the group and our tutors. Wish me luck!
PS. I will take some pictures of my new room and post them ASAP.
]]>I started sleeping in late, then went out to investigate the area I was in (after which I posted the photo in the previous post). I then got a call from Majken who hadent heard from the guy who she was suppose to stay over with, so I went down to Liverpool station to pay her a visit, and there she was, sitting all by her lonesome at a Nero Coffe shop. We talked and realized that we had met before. Majken had called me about a month ago to ask if I could cut her documentary but I had said no because of all the film school stuff, but this is not the where I knew her from. She use to come down at the film workshop in Århus while she was working on one of her previous projects. Anyway! She called me about 3 days ago when she found out herself, that she also was going to London. She is beginning tommorrow at the University here in Shoreditch. So we met and went out for a drink, as her friend/contact diden’t show up. She then finally got a call from him and we aranged to meet at the Golden Heart pub on Commercial Street and got a few drinks with him and his friends. The friends left one by one and finally we decided that it was time to head home. We went down Brick Lane and went into an Indian resturant, which was really great, well that food anyway. And thats about it. Doesen’t sound like a long day, but with all the walking I’ve done it has become an EXTREMELY long day, my feet are so sore I really don’t know how Im going to last a week in this city.
Wish me, and my feet, luck….
]]>
More to come…
]]>I haven’t written in awhile as I have been busy, working, tired, frustrated and so on, but that ’should’ all be over now as I DID GET INTO THE FILM SCHOOL! and it’s first now, the evening before leaving for london, that I have found the peace to write something here again.
Hopefully they will keep us too busy in the first week as I will try to make some videos and post them on my site, you know, just to show you how I am getting on. I must say that the most frustrating thing about going over there was wheather I had a place to stay. Which, for awhile, I diden’t even though I had already booked my flight! But now I have a place to stay, and its nice an close to the school.
The school is in central London, in the east side, in the Tea Building (look it up in google.co.uk).
Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait Can’t wait………………
Talk to you soon, SO STAY TUNED!
]]>
I have also started writing on my next project “The Golden Hummingbird”.
SO stay tuned.
The good news is that I made it in the top 8 of 39 interviewed and 370+ applicants, and that I did it on my first try. Now I will definatly make my latest story “The Golden Hummingbird” and try to apply with it for the next round, thats ofcause if Im not the lucky bastard who gets in anyway!!!
KEEP THOSE FINGERS CROSSED!!! ITS NOT OVER TILL ITS OVER!!!
]]>See the photos here:
January Jaunt Press Shots 2006
Credits goes to Christoph Polcin and Caspar Wiegell for helping me out with the shoot. I will also link to or post Cristophs photos later on. Thx Guys!
PS. also a new was that the gallery page was made in iWeb… is it any good? I certainly did it with NO hickups whatsoever! and I was in full control of how I wanted it to look… but maybe I will put them on Flickr, just for good meassure.

I was at my interview, it went really well, but I still don’t know if I got in!?! But they said ten days, so I should find out any day now…
Cross your fingers…
]]>Last night we(Los Marachas) played at the chocolate factory (Chokolade frabrikken) in Århus, and it was amazing. There was a really good response from the audience, and I coulden’t keep up with the CDs. I recorded the concert and started to burn audio CDs with the concert stright after the guys finished playing, and not only that, I also took some shots while they were playing and did a CD cover for the CD, and with my trusty cannon IP4200 I printed those covers and went out to sell the CDs. So a great concert and a great response. I wont tell you about the playing itself, you simply have to download the 55 MB (and 48 minute) recording that I have a link to HERE (This is NOT in the regular podcast I have!!! I might make some samples later though?!?).

Anyway, check out the video from the rehearsal.
Heres some fun from roskilde festival!!! This is Lasse (Check out Mimassite.com) and Leif (Check out januaryjaunt.dk) commenting on how they feel about all the policemen (and women) that were patroling the camping area at roskilde festival this year.


I got an email today that invited me to the interview at NFTS. I applied roughly 3 weeks ago, and finally today I got the answer. I have to go to london in two weeks for the interview, and im totally psyched…
Wish me luck
]]>Wish me luck…
PS. more videos to come soon!
]]>Just saw that Creativecow.net setup a podcast with VIDEO TUTORIALS!!!
Go check it out at http://www.creativecow.net/aepodcast/
]]>Recently I have been working on my application for The National Film and Television School in London. Its a lot of work. I have to fill out the general forms, answer some questions about myself and why Im applying, aswell as submitting a film, a treatment, and an evaluation of the film I sent. So there is plenty to tend to. Right now Im working on editing the film I will be sending, and its not going so well as I had hoped. The worst part is that I have to send it in a week or so! The reason for the late editing of the film is that its first recently that we shot it! so there was never much time to begin with. I will post some more info on how its going later, for now just enjoy my little crappy film which is all about getting no where in the editing room.
Enoy…

]]>I also have some video for this, which will be comming on soon.
]]>Since this is my first photo post there might be some problems, as I am playing around with Flickr for the first time, and I want to use that to post images and photos in the future, so I just have to figure out how Im going to do it.
