TELL US ABOUT YOUR EARLY FILM WORK, AT THE AGE OF 13! A very long, long time ago -- OK, actually a decade ago -- I discovered the world of cameras and cartoons. I was moving to a new city almost every year as a child/teen, but I was lucky enough to always get a simple digital photo camera and very basic editing programs around me, so I started to create stop- motion videos. I was writing short stories or creating parodies of popular fairy-tails, but you know, these vids were really amateurish! I was just playing around with a camera in my room. My very first actors were Lego
Northern Denmark. Filming the macro world puts
you in another state of mind. (I have huge respect for camera operators working for National Geographic Channels). The task requires absolute control over
your thoughts, words, and deeds and hours of waiting, but is a very meditative and open- minding challenge for a cinematographer, especially when it comes to pulling focus on macro lenses!
bricks and toys, which I was sculpturing in modelling clay! Nevertheless, my interests and fascination in film and cameras started to grow and, when I was about 15, I firmly decided that I would dedicate my life to film production and story-telling.
CURRENT EQUIPMENT YOU USE? Sony NEX FS700, Canon C300, Canon DSLRs, and when I work as
an AC, I am mostly surrounded by Arri Alexa or RED Epic.
OTHER GEAR YOU HAVE ACCESS TO? Sony PMW-F3, Sony FS100, and various Canon DSLRs.
HOW DO YOU FIND DSLRS? WHAT ARE THEIR GOOD POINTS? BAD POINTS? We all know the disadvantages of DSLRs, and we shouldn't compare them to professional film cameras, but I have to add that I am a huge fan of Canon DSLRs. They have saved me money and ‘my life’ many times. DSLR is a great tool to develop
your camera-skills, and learn working with focal length and light. Moreover, they are very useful while shooting sport videos, events, reportages - especially in extreme conditions or small spaces, or while you are on the road. Moreover, I would never
replace a DSLR with these handy semi-professional tv-cam- recorders with non- interchangeable lenses. I love working with focus/sharpness
