Arttu has background in independent films. He has worked in production, AD’s and location departments on multiple projects and holding various positions depending on the production scale. In professional productions his tasks have included assisting the Location Manager on and off the set, casting and coordinating background actors prior to and during the shoot, and also directing them in conjunction with the AD team.

Arttu’s strengths lie in his social personality and dedication for the industry. He is in his element when working with other people – may they be crew, cast, background actors, location owners or by-passers. But he also takes distinct pleasure in methodical and detail-oriented spreadsheet work.

In the future Arttu is hoping to gain more knowledge with call sheets, directing crowds and running the set. He is open for trainee positions and assisting work in which to learn more of these duties.

Ps. Arttu is also a film fanatic – if you want someone with great movie trivia knowledge, he is certainly your guy!
