WORK HISTORY I’m a filmmaker, graduated from the Turku Art Academy, specialized in a children’s media culture. I'm working for an organisation, Videootit, starting a new project called Video wagon. It will offer practical media education to children around Finland. I've been working as a media educator in Finnish National Broadcasting Company's (YLE) Media bus - project running workshops for teens, teaching them to make short films from they own perspective to the Internet. Best of the produced films are being shown in the youth program called “My news”. I'm also working for the organisation, Videootit, organizing workshops and media happenings and Nordic and Baltic Kids for Kids competition. I am also in the process of writing a TV series for children while working on my own video and photography art projects. From 2002 to 2010, I have been working as a media pedagogue at the Pirkanmaa Film Centre in Tampere, Finland. My duties consist of planning and teaching various training programmes, mainly with children and their teachers. I hold practical workshops designed to guide children into the world of fiction, documentary and, ever increasingly during the last few years, animation. I was also the executive and artistic director of children's Videotivoli Festival and Nordic and Baltic KFK, which are organised jointly by the Tampere Film Festival and Pirkanmaa Film Centre. I am also collaborating with the Children's Programming Department of the Finnish Channel Two, writing a series Moving Images while holding animation workshops in conjunction with the series. During a year 2007, I made three music videos to for Tohtori Orff (Dr. Orff), a music group aimed for children for their commercial DVD. I’m also going to make several music videos to National TV’s children channel. Years 1991 – 2002 worked for two media organisations: Videootit and Media Metka organizing a youth film festival “My Film” (Minun Elokuvani) That time I also run several workshops from short fiction, documentary and animation field. I'm a member of CIFEJ, the UNESCO-based International Centre of Films for Children and Young People. I held a seat in the Board of Directors of CIFEJ in the years 2006 – 2009. In Finland I hold similar positions in the boards of the Videootit ry, Satakunta Moving Picture Centre and the Pirkanmaa Film Centre.
