HALVOR MYKLEBY

(Videographer, film producer, Firbeint Film & TV)

“The climate in Svalbard is definitely changing. Oh yes, it feels and is visible. Because of less snow, more ice and rain, and warmer and colder temperatures, this freezes the rain to ice, and makes problems for reindeer to access their food, etc etc. It is a very unfortunate chain reaction.”

United Progressive Fraternity is extremely grateful for permission to use the breathtaking footage of Svalbard that has been captured by Halvor Mykleby.

Norwegian videographer Halvor Mykleby is the owner of Firbeint Film AS, which plans and produces content for television, documentary, film and advertising.
