CIRCLE OF CONTEMPT: THE INCEPTION
Pori, Finland - Sep 6 / 2017 The biggest props for this one goes to Yrj� "Yk�" Nordling, and Sami Minkkinen. They made my visions become reality: Yk� built the wire-cam himself, and Sami produced the lightshow for the song, like it was a live performance. The outcome was amazing especially when you know a drillgun pushed the RED camera forward ;) Ha. Hope you like it as much as we do. Check out the BTS from the link too!

REEBOK CROSSFIT GAMES 2017
Madison, USA - Aug 2-6 / 2017 My 5th Games. Moving away from Carson to Madison, this was exceptionally exciting for us in the Rogue media team because everything looked different. And that's a good change! Check out this playlist for our videos of the events. Once again the moving camera ("The Ronin-shots") are mine. Big thanks to Bill & Caity, Juha & Anu, and of course Todd. R U ROGUE?

PERIPHERY: THE WAY THE NEWS GOES
Helsinki, Finland - Jul 28 / 2017 This is an official music video for Periphery released by Sumerian Records. I used my one-take technique again!

Funny how things go...

HONKATALOT: WAVE
Mikkeli, Finland - Jul 15 / 2017 This house is from a different planet. A great piece of engineering and design by Honkatalot (PolarLife Haus) for Asuntomessut 2017. I was very excited for this shoot and super happy for the song we chose for this project. Bring that beat back!

CIRCLE OF CONTEMPT: IMPULSE
Pori, Finland - Feb 13 / 2017 This video was inspired by my one take -productions for Periphery and Veil Of Maya back in 2015.

This came out super sweet with all the cold and humid breaths and all.
