Curtis

About Björn Curtis

I am a 25 year old man who lives currently in Oslo, Norway. I moved here for my passion and to pursue my new career within film, camera and lighting. My journey started in 2008, where I chose to quit my job as a copper and tin smith, taking up a loan and going to film school. From there my passion for the visual part of film started to grow, and I soon realised that I wanted my future career to involve cinematography. After two years of studying film and working on different projects in Norway, I decided to move to Cape Town, South Africa, for a year to finish my Bachelors degree within cinematography. This was a tremendous learning experience for me culturally, mentally, and as a filmmaker. Constantly being in a creative environment with people who are in love with what they want to become is extremely inspiring. So from here on my passion for film and storytelling grew immensely.

As if the project wouldn’t be hard enough on it’s own, we had to add a few scoops of toughness to it: we are making a fiction film. After having made documentaries for a while I was eagerly looking for an opportunity to dig […]
