Endorsements
Patrick Strömdahl
Sound Engineer/
Sound Designer
"For Björn, it was important to be alert and well prepared (script reading, etc.) He took his task very seriously and was well prepared and had a good attitude to the work.
He is socially competent and helps to create a calm and a serious working atmosphere.
He is talented and innovative and strives to seek interesting and unconventional expressions.
I can emphatically emphasize that he will become a dedicated future professional with an artistic expressiveness as an aspiring sound creator."
Klas
Dykhoff
Professor of Sound/
Sound Designer
"Björn has so far demonstrated good collaborative skills and a great desire to learn new
stuff. He is highly appreciated both by his fellow students and by the teachers. In the courses
and exercises he has done so far at the school, he has shown a strong desire to tell
with sound and has overall received very good results."
Samori Tovatt
Director
"Björn is a curious and artistic sound designer with an ear for the finer details. I highly recommend Björn to anyone looking to collaborate with someone who brings their own ideas while also being very attentive to others' visions."
Best Sound Award
Play Filmfestival 2022
"With a sound design that immediately catches the audiences attention and leads us into a world long forgotten. This sound design brings to life that which once was and shows us how through the medium of sound, internal images can be created which are just as colorful as the images we see.
The winner for best sound/music goes to Björn van Weiden for Äskhult, the place beyond time."
Jacquelin Andrén
Director
"I couldn't be more pleased with his work. Björn, on his own initiative elevated each scene with a solid and dynamic atmosphere. Björn's dedication to the project exceeded my expectations. He possesses technical wisdom, artistic freedom, and a warmth that would make him an ideal collaborator for every film."
