Overview

Skyskraper is a Norwegian production house, holding company and cluster of cooperating companies based in Oslo. According to its own description, it is one of Norway's largest independent environments for the development and production of advertising and entertainment, working especially with sound and film across all media. The group is headquartered at Maridalsveien 89 in Oslo, in a building painted with blue sky and white clouds — the literal "skyskraper" (skyscraper) that gives the brand its name and serves as a visual landmark. The house brings together more than ten companies and around 70 people, with an annual turnover of roughly 200 million Norwegian kroner (approximately 20 million euros). Its activities span the full production chain for advertising and entertainment: TV and radio commercials, podcasts, TV and radio programs, sound design and jingles, concert productions, artist booking and management, casting of actors and talents, animation, VFX, postproduction, music production and distribution, and related back-office, accounting and IT services. Skyskraper organizes its customers into four main groups: media channels such as TV, radio and podcast providers; advertising and media agencies; advertisers; and artists and talents. The group's companies include Både Og AS (with units for podcast, advertising film, radio advertising, sound design and TV), Skyskraper Artist AS, IndigoBoom AS, Cannibal Casting AS, Digi Treat, Ergo;ego AS, Schweinhund AS, Wirkola Casting AS, Vindlyd AS, Kurder King Production AS and Teigen Total AS, alongside ownership and administration entities such as Skyskraper Holding, Geosenso AS, Pluss & Minus AS, Enda Mer AS and Hovedkvarteret IT AS. Skyskraper was founded by Geir E. Osnes, who serves as chairman and acts as a central point of contact for clients navigating the group's many specialist companies. The brand positions itself as a one-stop creative and technical environment where advertisers, broadcasters and talent can find "everything they need and the one they need" for producing advertising or entertainment. It is privately held and independent, describing itself as one of Norway's largest independent environments in its field.

History

Skyskraper is a Norwegian production house and holding company based in Oslo, built around a cluster of cooperating companies under one roof. It was founded by Geir E. Osnes, who continues to serve as chairman and as a central point of contact for clients. The group describes itself as one of Norway's largest independent environments for the development and production of advertising and entertainment, with a particular focus on sound and film across all media. The brand's identity is tied to its physical headquarters at Maridalsveien 89 in Oslo, a building painted with blue sky and white clouds — the literal "skyskraper" (skyscraper) that gives the company its name and makes the building a landmark. The house accommodates around 70 people across more than ten companies, with technical facilities for most of what happens in sound, film, media and entertainment, and an annual turnover of roughly 200 million Norwegian kroner (approximately 20 million euros). Over time, Skyskraper has grown by assembling specialist companies rather than operating as a single monolithic studio. Its portfolio includes Både Og AS, which covers advertising film, radio advertising, podcast, sound design and TV; Skyskraper Artist AS for artist booking and management; IndigoBoom AS; Cannibal Casting AS and Wirkola Casting AS for casting of actors and talents; Digi Treat; Ergo;ego AS; Schweinhund AS; Vindlyd AS; Kurder King Production AS; and Teigen Total AS. Ownership and administration are handled through entities such as Skyskraper Holding, Geosenso AS, Pluss & Minus AS, Enda Mer AS and Hovedkvarteret IT AS. The group serves four main customer groups: media channels such as TV, radio and podcast providers; advertising and media agencies; advertisers; and artists and talents. Its services span TV and radio commercials, podcasts, TV and radio programs, sound design and jingles, concert productions, booking and artist management, casting, animation, VFX, postproduction, music production and distribution, as well as back-office functions including accounting, board management, business development, IT support and media training. Recent activity reflects the group's continued expansion into new services and venues. Sangskaper.no, a new low-threshold service from Voice Bank AS, was announced to launch in February 2026, allowing users to produce their own song with unique lyrics and melody for NOK 298. In Tønsberg, Oseberg Kulturhus was renamed Teigen Scene, with Teigen Total AS starting the new year with "its own" cultural house. Både Og has also been recruiting, seeking an experienced advertising film producer.
