Thomas Thors

I am a multifaceted craftsman, artist, and musician with a deep-rooted passion for technology and creativity. Since 2013, I have been the proud owner of a custom frame shop and art gallery located in the heart of Sandefjord, Norway. This venture has provided me with extensive experience in retail and customer service, allowing me to develop strong relationships with my clients and deliver exceptional service.
As an experienced framer, I take great pride in my high-quality craftsmanship. My creative journey extends beyond framing, encompassing various artistic pursuits and a strong interest in electronics, computing, and rapid prototyping. I am skilled in 3D printing, laser cutting, and CNC machining, always eager to explore new methods to innovate and create.
A lifelong passion of mine has been film and filmmaking, with a particular focus on special effects. I am currently studying 3D graphics and have a keen interest in CGI, VFX, and computer animation. However, my heart truly belongs to practical effects such as make-up, miniatures, and stop-motion/puppetry. My ultimate goal is to work in the film industry as a prop master/prop maker, a role I believe would perfectly blend my skills and passions.
I'm actively honing my skills as a prop maker and working on creating a portfolio to showcase my work, as I currently lack formal credentials in this field.
I'm also an active member of Horten Folkeverksted, a makerspace where I collaborate with fellow enthusiasts, share knowledge, and bring ideas to life. My goal is to establish a similar creative community in Sandefjord, fostering an environment where others too can embrace technology and creativity.
Whether it's through my art, music, film projects, or technological endeavors, I strive to enhance people's lives and inspire creativity in all its forms.
