Me and my friend Therese Larsson teamed up to make a commercial for Barncancergalan 2008, we came up with the concept, the design and the storyboard. Therese did the illustrations and I was the animator.
By the way, we hate the song that plays in the end, but our clients wanted it, so what could we do?

We had a motion week at Hyper Island and one of our assignments was to make a 15 second movie in After Effects. I was a bit when I started to make this move, so had 24 hours to make a cool movie.
So after 3 cans of Jolt cola, some vitamine C, a lot of pushups and a sleepless night, I had my 15 seconds movie.

This typography movie was inspired by an interview with Bruce Lee. He talked about how your mind should be like water. And I thought that philosophy was so cool that I had to make an animation too it.

One of my first motion graphic videos, the scene is actually a wallpaper made by little-gamers.com. So I depict the wallpaper in Illustrator and imported the illustration to After Effects and had some fun with the character.
