Martin Hawkes
Director of Photography

Emmy, Peabody, Canadian Screen, Juno and South by Southwest Audience Choice Awards. Martin has been at the helm of several award winning documentaries. 

Growing up in the 1970s and 1980s in Toronto's Cabbagetown area offered Martin the unique experience of being surrounded by art and artists of many disciplines.

His mother worked at a contemporary art gallery and his father was a journalist so he was no stranger to the visual and the written as forms of expression. The medium that finally found Martin was cinematography. He studied Audio Visual Arts at Seneca College. More recently he took part in the American Society of Cinematographers Master Class. Never stop learning is a lifestyle he believes strongly in.
