#10 Sebastian Jacobsen: The Law of Jante, Chile & A Different Mindset

#5 Marius Hansen: Business mindset & creative work

Filmmaker Marius Hansen works with clients around the world including Red Bull Norway and JCP. Using a simple setup like a Sony A7S III and a 24–70 lens, he developed a style that stands out without relying on a lot of gear. We talk about building trust with clients, why networking takes time, and why being a good person to work with matters just as much as creative skill. Marius also shares his mindset of treating creative work like a video game — where every project becomes a mission and every payment is experience points toward the next level. We also dive into one of his early breakthroughs: creating the documentary series “Døds or Die”. Marius wrote the script, developed the characters, filmed and edited the entire series himself before it aired on TV2 through a media agreement with the Døds Diving Federation.
