Already unlocked? for access

Be amazed! Fasten your seat belt and dive into 24 films in less than 60 minutes. Here is the Nordic-Baltic Competition program for Commissioned Films, including commercials, music videos, information films, identity work, and one or two exhibition pieces. In other words, all the fun the industry makes for a customer. A diverse, but very commercial program that the jury should have a tough job to judge and fun to watch for the rest of us.

The films are competing for the festival award for Best Commissioned Film.

A digital campaign for "Natur og Ungdom" association, that focuses on the development of the Wisting oilfield in the Barents Sea. The campaign consists of six short informational films that describe the potential negative consequences as a result of the development. We decided to go for a very distinct and slightly unusual style for this type of film. Touching into the grotesque to make it stand out and attract attention when it appears on social media.


Since leaving Volda in 2008, Bjarne has focused on character animation and design. After several years in the industry, he has gained extensive experience in series production with the development and production of animated concepts from start to finish. He worked on Fanthomas and Sex og singelsiv, among other things, before he helped start the animation company Dragesmith in 2011. Here he helped create the award-winning animated Christmas calendar "Familien Andersen" for Startour, as well as several commercials. Since 2014, he has worked at Animaskin as a classic animator and director, with several award-winning projects, such as Ytterst på tissen and Den magiske kroppen, under his belt.
