Phiew!

Just one year ago if someone would have said to me: "all of this will happen", I would have not believed it.

The hard work is slowly but surely paying off. For the first time, and despite being a foreigner, not knowing the language completely, and working in a very tough business (independently) I am saying NO, quite often, to jobs. It is not the fact the I say no, but that there is people constantly ringing and wanting my work... it is really priceless: specially when you work within the creative market.

I am proving myself, after some psychological abuse (females, you are wrong) that males ARE CAPABLE of multitasking... he he. Right now I am editing and postproducing a music video, have some hours workhopping students at UiB, editing a short film, marketing an animation film, developing a documentary, developing a short film, writing 2 scripts, having a wife and a house, playing tennis... and trying not to get bored ;-)

All of this involves at least 5 different film companies in Bergen. Which is great cause one of my goals is to be able to establish a much more inclusive and participative way of making films here in Norway... a true creative environment in which we all work together and see others not su much like competitions, but like partners.
