Recently, I’ve recieved an increasing amount of questions, regarding my film productions, what camera equipment and lenses I use and even where I’m from. In addition, two months have passed since I last uploaded a Youtube video. Therefore, I decided to hit two birds with one stone, and make a frequently asked questions video.
It took quite some time making this video, even with the good help from Daniel Wetherell, but after several hours of hard work, I was finally content with the quality of the film, and published it on Youtube. The close up of me is filmed with the 50mm 1.8, and the rest is mostly the 18-55mm kit lens and Daniels 550D, so I could show my equipment.
HEI ESKILD! Du er kul. Og siden sin ser awesome ut!
Tusen takk for tilbakemeldingen Tanja! Jeg har jobbet ganske lenge med å få siden til å se mest mulig spennende og innbydende ut, og samtidig stilrent og oversiktlig. Alle nyheter om filmprosjekter, produksjoner og tilsvarende hendelser kommer jeg til å publisere fortløpende her. Foreløpig er det en kombinasjon av firmaside og personlig blogg, så får vi se hva det utvikler seg til etter hvert =)
Hi there. Thanks for your hard work. Your videos are inspiring.
I’m an English teacher from Russia. I got the info about your Youtube channel from an Internet post by another English teacher from France. I’m curious about your English that is extremely nice. Could you please tell me the story of your English language romance? Where did you study it? Can you speak any other languages? I’d really appreciate your answer. I’m going to make a good use of the story giving my students a pep talk:)
Thank you.
Hi! First of all I want to thank you for the positive feedback, I really apreciate it
Secondly, I can tell you that I have always been facinated by the English language – both because so many people speak it, and the many different accents and dialects. When it comes to grammar, I’ve learned most of my English at school (which mainly focused on Britisk English). Pronunciation on the other hand, I feel I’ve learned mainly from watching English and American films, TV shows and video games. In addition I’ve been to England and America many times, which also have helped my understanding of the language.
I don’t feel that my English is perfect, and I still have a noticable Scandinavian accent, but I’ve recieved positive comments about my language on several occasions, so I think it’s good enough. (Some people have even told me that they find my accent charming)
I can also speak German, but not nearly as good as English. My girlfriend studies Japanese, and I have several Norwegian friends who are very good with Spanish. I think most Norwegians are pretty good at foreign languages, because we are such a small nation with an equally small language, so we “have to” be able to speak other languages. Also, almost none of the films, TV shows or games are dubbed – they are only given subtitles – so we basicly hear English all the time.
Hope this helps! Best regards, Eskild E. Fors
Tack Eskil, för att du delar med dig av din kunskap
