Martin Amiot
Martin has been working as a director since 2012. He has to his credit several brand content projects, documentaries, and a documentary TV series: VolteFace. This series, broadcast on ICI Explora, earned him the Gémeau for Best Documentary TV Series Direction in 2015. His web series "Mon précieux déchet" for Bell Média won the Gémeau for Best Digital Magazine in 2021.
From one project to another, Martin switches between director, director of photography, and editor. His documentary "I BIKE" about Montreal's fixed gear cycling scene has traveled to festivals, receiving special mentions in Germany, Belgium, France, and the United States. Martin recently received a production grant from SODEC and CALQ for his first fiction short film, "Blitzmusik."
