1.4 Interview
with Bine
Bach

Bine stays lazy and busy.

Let it be known, we are huge fans of Bine
Bach Damsgaard
. The most recent addition
to our directors' roster is not just a great
hang, she is also an exciting director turning
heads internationally.

Case in point: the new interview with Bine
over at 1.4
, where she talks about her
hands-on approach, aspirations to make an
Old Spice ad and why being busy is
important – even for the bone idle.

What are you waiting for? Go read it right
here.

"I’m not a morning person and I’m also lazy,
so I prefer things where you don’t have
to move a lot. That made me think I was
better suited for filmmaking."

“...because I started in animation and VFX, I love magic realism - mixing real life and the fantastical. Anything that is truthful, magical or surreal, but not all in the same spot. My approach is playing it straight, even if it is a Tesla flying off into the sunset.”
