NRK - Under Overflaten

From the summer of 2019 to the summer of 2020, I lived aboard a sailboat together with the rest of the crew at SV Havblikk, were we made an 8-episode documentary for NRK.
The series features our daily life and struggles aboard the sailboat, and the world we discover under water. 
Working closely with NRK for three years, was truly some of the most educational years I’ve ever had. In spring 2022 the series was nominated for a “Gullruten’s Fagpris” award. The series also won NRK’s internal price for “innovation of the year”.

Testimonial:

“… Through 8 episodes in the series, the viewers get amazing nature experiences and through Lars’s camera lens get access to places they probably had not reached on their own.

In “Under Overflaten” Lars and co have done something completely new and innovative.

I experience Lars Korvald as serious, innovative, and with great execution ability.”
