Streaming Stars, Then and Now

Born in England, Martyn's family immigrated to Australia when he was six years old. They moved to the coastal suburb of Cronulla in Sydney where he spent his early teenage years.

Leaving school early, Martyn's career in the movie industry began at the age of fifteen when he commenced his first job as a spool boy at the local Cronulla Cinema. After twelve months he moved to the city (Sydney) and worked for Hoyts cinemas where he was promoted to assistant projectionist, and two years later, projectionist. Working the suburban relief roster, he screened a double feature at a different cinema every night, ten different movies per week. He credits this with creating his passion for cinema.

Having a strong affinity with the Renaissance men of modern cinema,Martyn epitomizes the do-it-yourself attitude and self-immersing approach to movie making, an approach more akin to a solo artist than a conventional writer/director. When working as A Lonedog Production, he routinely takes on all the crewing roles, working entirely on his own. This solo method of filmmaking also continues through the post-production process. His Lonedog style is best described as auteur-driven minimalism, in which he tells intimate stories on a cinematic scale.

[on his approach to post-production] Take the picture, the sound, and the music - tie them to a chair inside a dark room - then slap them about the head until they tell the truth.
