Big Hearts
Music video for SWAYF
I was inspired by the old footage from a leaded paint commercial (illustrating how painting a house with leaded paint, makes it able to resist a nuclear explosion…)
We adapted the colors, the format (4:3) and the compositions in the material we shot with Morten and Kaja at the white cliffs of Møn.
We ended up using the old footage as an extra layer in the video.
Godspeed
Music Video for Frithjof Toksvig
A 10 minute visit to an old lighthouse with actor Kaja Mærk Egeberg, at a stormy night, turned into 5 minutes of handheld footage. The footage inspired musician Frithjof Toksvig to create a song. Half a year later, I looked at the material and played around with som subtle effects using old footage I shot with Kaja. Frithjof sent me the song Godspeed, and together we worked out this little film.

Northern People
Music Video for Sleep With All Your Friends
A summer party on a houseboat turned into this music video for the track Northern People on the album Small Victories.
Running With Insanity
Music Video for Alcoholic Faith Mission
Inspired by Roy Andersson’s En Kärlekshistoria, I cut up the film to the song, not creating a story, but a mood and an atmosphere. With that in mind, and a subtle storyline, we spend three days shooting it in the area where I grew up.
Modern Man
Music video for E Bird
I am inspired by the song when I’m writing the script for the short film Closure,
In return for using the song in the end of the film, I make this video for E Bird.
Oneirodyni
Music Video for Clemens
Oneirodyni is a single from the Danish rapper Clemens. Returning to his roots, and resuming the hardcore rap style and sound that started his career.
The songs sinister tone and lyrics are a visual portrait, in a mix of nightmare/amnesia atmosphere and old horror film footage.
I Drink I Fight
Music Video for Sleep With All Your Friends
This was my first music video – shot on a Panasonic DVX100 (still love that old DV camera). I guy in England had made and converter to use SLR lenses and suddenly you were making film!
I had found the two actors and talked the story through. On the day and time of shooting we had no ekstras (the band were supposed to take care of that part). We started working on an emergency plan – a weird scenario of the band playing for a complete empty ball room with only the two youngsters sitting alone. Suddenly all the extras turned up though – as the band had ensured they would,
Comedown
Music Video for Andi Müller
I find it quite hard thinking in naratives in electronic music. It usely strikes me more as a state of mind than a story. In this case i just had an idea of this guy running in his own thoughts.
I cut up a lot of old footage and made it in to a stream of consciousness, to project in the streets as the thoughts of Andi Müller running in the dark. It’s shot from a bicycle cab containing me. a camera, a projector mounted to the camera, a laptop to feed the project and a generator to power it all. It was har not to attract attention.
