They say that I tried to hang myself with my umbilical cord before even being born to Northern Finnish small town Oulu. Might be a legend, though. Then I learned to act [mostly in New York]. Now I act as a Screenwriter-Producer-CEO of Whatevergroup. Thus far, 40 years later, I’m still alive – and happier than ever to be so.
Crawled into the world in 1978. Born and bred in Oulu. Still here. Only temporary plans of leaving. Studied screenwriting in Manchester. Screenwriter, director and general exorcist of bad ideas of Whatevergroup.
I am Antti Kairakari, originally a dancer and choreographer from Finnish Lapland, I’ve made a career in directing theatre before turning to tv and film. I produce live events, new media and TV, script a lot of stuff, photograph and direct.
I work as a designer on multiple storyfied locations, from conceptual design to 3D modelling and plain good old carpenter work.
I've directed two children’s TV shows and worked as a bartender. I love editing and colour correcting, I'm very interested of kinetic sculpting, classic theatre, contemporary dance, physics, history, cooking, fine arts, tech, culture, wine, producing, poetry, mushrooms and tomato soup, comics, corporate language, comedy, learning italian and a few more things.
