About me

I am Lill Karin Saltermark, a twenty years old girl from the suburb around Oslo, Norway. I love traveling and taking photos of nature and animals and I love to work with concept development, brain storming and problem solving.

My life started the 22 of November 1989 in a hospital in Oslo. That night there where no curtains in the hospital and my mom could watch the first snow of that winter fall down from the skies. A few days after that my parents brought me home to our house in Ås. My first years I do not remember much from, but my mom have told me that after watching some commercials about organ donation my mind was set on a profession for adulthood. I was going to sell my body. Luckily my childhood dream did not come true. At least not yet.

While finishing my 10th year at school I started wondering what to do next. I have always had a creative mind but did not know that creativity was a talent that could be used in the way I use it today. So I went for what I thought would be my thing back then. Making movies. So, I applied for Media and Communication for upper secondary school. I started on a M&C school in Oslo and soon figured out that I liked still pictures more than moving pictures. I also grew a little passion for story telling and design.

My years at upper secondary school went fast and I was soon in my third and last year. Again I was unsure about what to do next dude to mostly poor schools within all kinds of media in Norway. But then during a Christmas dinner at my aunts place, my cusins girlfriend told me about Hyper Island, a great digital media school in Sweden.

So I applied, got in and moved to Sweden to go to Hyper Island where I am still studying today. Halfway thru the program I had to find an internship placement for my seven month internship period. I browsed the web, talked to graduated Hyper student and met some interesting people in London before and during a party my class and I hosted. After some back and forward I found a place that I liked, Euro RSCG 4D, Amsterdam. An office devoted to their interns.

I have now finished my seven month internship at Euro RSCG 4d and will be starting another internship at De-construct April 1st.
