This might not be the Busiest Blog on the Interwebs, but I'll try to keep it more or less up-to-date of what goes on in my mind. And that is not much...
Now shooting: Klassefesten 3
Currently I'm doing the production sound recording for the shooting of "Klassefesten 3". As the number indicates, the third movie in the series of danish comedy blockbusters. And yes, it IS fun to shoot it!!
Spilprisen 2015
"Spilprisen", the Danish Producers Association's award for games, has got a new category this year, which is "Best Sound Design", and it happened to be so that two of the five nominated games this year were made by Press Play, and thereby with sound design by me!

“Max” – Year 1 stats
According to Press Play's Meld-update in "Max - the Curse of Brotherhood", the game has been played by more than 1.5 million gamers during the first year. On average each player has spent 11 hours in the game, making it 1800 years of playing the game - and thereby listening to my sounds. Or well, it might be that 1600 of these years have been with the volume turned down. You never know... I guess 200 years is still ok then.
Video about the audio design in “MAX”
This video was produced by Microsoft Studios for the launch of "Max - the Curse of Brotherhood" for XBOX ONE. It's about the music and audio design, and it stars composer and audio programmer Asger Strandby, and myself.
