About Simon Wannehag Hagene:
In the last 5+ years I have gained a solid work experience with quality assurance, translation and creative writing for two global platforms (Apple and HBO/Warnermedia). I’m solution-oriented, curious, a team player and interested in all kinds of tech, media and entertainment. I also have more than 8+ years of working experience from writing, interviewing, directing, filming and editing projects in Asia, Europe and the US. Further, I have been part of several film productions, content developments, social media campaigns and employer branding projects for large global companies to small start-ups.
I grew up in Scandinavia, received my Bachelor of Arts in Film in Singapore, then my Master of Fine Arts in San Fransisco. Currently living the Californian dream in Santa Monica.
