Jeg går en Tur - A self portrait by Lasse Gjertsen

OK, this video is very ego, sorry about that! My dad suggested to upload it, and I though, what the hell.. The language is norwegian, but I did my best to subtitle it in english. If you hear the word "tits-machine", don't worry, it means "time machine" in norwegian, lol!

This video was my interpretation of the admission assignment for an animation school in Norway, which was to make a "self portrait in any technique". I was studying in England at the time (Spring 2005), but wasn't satisfied with that school, and wanted to try another place.
I got in!

How it's made:
Filmed myself infront of a green screen, made it to a walking cycle which could be looped forever. The rest are pictures from England and Norway and books, and are just mashed together in Premiere. The music is me, played guitar and harmonica myself (two instruments I actually can't master) but it sounds ok enough. Music edited together in FL Studio.

This sounds a lot like Welsh. Weird.

This are things I also have thought but it seemed to get nowhere at the time.

Nevertheless it does. You eventually get somwhere. Many things like this video has to get out to see what the world needs. My name is Miguel and I also think animation can change the world. If you want to contact me my email is alenz01@gmail.com I also want to do animation, 2d.

I saw this video years ago. Today I was assigned to make a self portrait video in college and I immediately thought of your video. I think that right there says how successful it is. Anyway, great video. I hope you find happiness in nature :)

I will never meet this man, but I really really admire him. Not in that creepy stalker way.
