About me
Hi everybody!
My name is Isabella, I’m 26 and I’m currently living in Copenhagen, Denmark. I’m looking for new opportunities in a junior creative role within the media industry.
I graduated from my bachelors degree in January within Film and Transmedia. An education that is centered around creating creative content across platforms (digital as well as physical) with storytelling being the heart of the experience.
Next to my studies I’ve been working freelance for the last 4 years primarily as content creator, director, creative producer and video editor. I’ve been working with international clients such as Universal Music, Warner Music, Reebok Nordic and edited for Danish National Televisions youth channel DR Ultra.
I’m creative at heart, have a strong eye for aesthetics, a natural feel for rhythm and strong storytelling. I’m very innovative in my way of thinking, is really excited about new media installations and sound designs.
I’ve been studying abroad for a semester in Melbourne where I developed my skills within script writing, graphic design and diffusion & spatial sound design for 12 speak system.
I’m curious by nature and love always seeking out new opportunities, challenge myself and research new ways of doing things.
I’d love to get in touch with anyone who’d be interested in sharing knowledge on creative agencies, in house production companies etc. that might be interested in having a virtual coffee together (until the corona is over) and have a chat!

Film and Media with Creative WritingVIA University College
- Aarhus, Denmark
The official title of my education is Multiplatform Storytelling & Production. But since most people look confused when you give that as the answer to “so what are you studying?” Then I usually describe it as “it’s something with film....”.
But it’s more than that. It’s under the department of Film and Transmedia and it’s main focus is storytelling across platforms (physical as well as digital).
During my studies I’ve touch upon everything from advertising, music video, new media (VR, AR, installations etc.), short film, fashion film, entertainment parks and a lot more.
Since Transmedia is at the heart of the education every production we’ve done we’ve been asked to develop a Transmedia plan for it. Not just for it but incorporate it in the to the actual development of the productions.
E.x. We did a short film thriller based on a kids tale. It should be the first of many short film thrillers based on different kids tales. The Transmedia element was that there would be an Instagram account connected to it where there 7 days before the launch of the new production would be thrown clues to what tale it might be. It would further more link to a website where people through riddles and other things should try figure out what tale it was. If they figured it out it would release a sneak peak and other extra features for the upcoming production.
