About
Charlotte is a London-based director and production designer, originally from Norway. Blending raw emotion with sharp visuals, and doing it her way. Music videos, short films, a few commercials here and there (if the vibe’s right).
Her background’s all over the place; photography, interior architecture, and project management, basically she knows how to build a vision. Neurodivergent too, so her brain’s wired different. She sees things sideways - in the best way.
When she was around nine, her chest literally started shifting. A rare condition. Changed how she moved, how she breathed, how she saw. That shift runs deep in her work. It’s why she’s drawn to the quiet stuff, the overlooked stuff, the real stuff.
Her style’s not about clean lines or shiny surfaces, it’s about feeling something. Even if it’s messy. Actually, especially if it’s messy.
“There is always perfection in imperfection.”
