Jeppe reflects on his journey from directing international music videos to co-founding FERN., and how his perspective on storytelling has shifted along the way. What once felt like a fast-moving global career changed direction when family life demanded something more grounded – leading to a new way of working and creating.
The conversation explores where inspiration comes from today: not only from film, but from music, art and the unpredictable rhythm of everyday life. Between work, kids and creative ambitions, ideas often appear at the most unexpected moments.
Jeppe also shares the thinking behind his current projects, including a new tragicomic TV series about modern fatherhood – a story he felt was missing in his own life and now wants to bring to the screen.
