Career

Andem spent several years with the NRK's children's division. Jenter, which means "girls" in Norwegian, was created and written by the artist at NRK.

Skam began because NRK executives wanted to include more teenage girls in its programming. Andem and Mari Magnus, the series's social media director, spent six months traveling around Norway and interviewing teenagers about their lives. She then auditioned over 1,200 young actors and created scenes based on the script.

Andem was both the creator and showrunner of Skam, and she wrote and directed all 47 episodes during Skam's four seasons. In September 2015, season 1 premiered on NRK, and in June 2017, season 4 concluded.

The series was extremely popular in Norway and around the world. Many countries have made adaptations of Skam with Andem's talelines, including France's SKAM France, Germany's Druck, Italy's SKAM Italia, Spain's SKAM Espaa, Netherlands' SKAM NL, and Belgium's wtFOCK.
