Lasse Gjertsen — the Norwegian animator and YouTube pioneer — released his iconic short “Rødmaling” (Red Painting). Known for his creative video-editing style and DIY animation, Gjertsen studied at the Kent Institute of Art & Design and has refused large media offers to stay true to his art. He records his own soundtracks using FL Studio, and his minimalist animations (made with After Effects) made him one of YouTube’s early stars.
