About

Kristoffer Hanghøj

Video producer and motion designer in Copenhagen

I shoot, edit and animate – and I’m the person you’ll be talking to from the first email to the final delivery. After many years in the industry, I still find the same joy in seeing an idea come to life on screen. Good chemistry matters to me: working together should be enjoyable, and when the collaboration works, it shows in the result.

Background

From film and TV to my own production company

I hold an MSc in Digital Design & Communication from the IT University of Copenhagen and a BA in Film and Media Studies from the University of Copenhagen. My path went through Nordisk Film as Digital Creative & Developer and TV 2 as Digital Art Director. That is where I learned to deliver on deadline, and how much a good story matters for whether people actually keep watching.

Since 2013, Made by Kristoffer has made video and motion graphics for larger brands and companies, including TV 2, Warner Bros. Discovery, Red Bull, Tivoli and Nordisk Film. Whatever the budget, there is always a story to tell – and that is where the work starts.

How I work

  • One point of contact

    You brief me and you hear back from me. No middlemen, and I know the project from the first email to delivery.

  • Craft at every stage

    Design and animation in After Effects; filming, editing and colour grading in my own setup. That gives a consistent look and a faster process.

  • Own kit, short notice

    A cinema camera that records up to 6K, a wide range of lenses and professional lighting and sound. That means I can head out at short notice – and if the job needs a studio or specialist equipment, I’ll arrange it.

  • On time, every time

    Many years in the industry have taught me that a good deadline matters as much as a good edit. You get a realistic schedule from the start, and it holds.
