About
Our brief was to help Millenium Promise reach out to young adults and involve them in the fight against poverty.
Avoiding the usual desensitizing images of squalor, we instead made a campain based around an interactive line on the web, where people would line up for limited edition American Apparel t-shirts, not initially knowing that the point of the campain was something completely different than the usual "limited edition" clothing line extravaganza. When they reached the entrance, the users would be exposed to a very different kind of limited edition, the one found in Africa.
I was part of the concept and development stage of this project, and I played a significant role in the scripting, design, motion graphics and the editing of the above movies.
About
In this project our task was to find ways for SVT, the public broadcaster of Sweden, to communicate more effectively with a younger audience.
We pitched a revamp of their, at the time, horribly broken web-tv service, focusing on ease of use and up to date technology. SVT relaunched their service this year, with some striking similarities to our proposal. My role: Concept, development and design.
About
The result of an individual project at Hyper Island, NRK ALFA is a radical redesign and rebranding of the NRK (Norway's state broadcaster) web-tv service, opting to make the service more accessible when used on regular televisions, as well as to improve and expand the presence and usability of the current online features.
About
For our design-specialization project in the Digital Media course at Hyper Island we made a campain for Stockholm's ficticious bid for the 2020 Summer Olympics.
In addition to the logo, which symbolizes the three Swedish crowns meeting in front of the sun to create a lively shape, I also made a graphic language which I applied to a variety of uses, and the layout of the final document containing our work.
About
For our first real project at the Interactive Art Director program we had to find a new use for Loci-Loci, a triangulation-based friend finder system.
Our solution, IKEA BILA ('bil' means car in Swedish.) would reside on the IKEA website, giving users a chance to find a lift (and maybe some help carrying all your new stuff) to and from IKEA.
About
I was involved in the production of the Guldeken-winning, FWA "site of the day", crew11.net. The site is a portal to the portfolios of the students in my class.
My role in the project was to design boxes for 10 of the toys that act as avatars for the students.
