Ricardo Martinez is a multi-hyphenate Editor, Writer, Director, and Dad.
An NYU Film grad and "art school nerd", he dove into documentary production after living abroad in Paris and studying French film and art.
His award-winning documentary, The Wall, launched his career as an editor and producer and won the Audience Award at the 2010 SF Latino Film Festival. The film played at several festivals including the Newport Beach Film Festival, Chicago Latino Film Festival, Tulipanes (where it won the Best Feature Award) and was screened on PBS. The Wall Trailer went viral on Youtube racking up 1.4 million views.
After directing and producing the edgy documentary series, Seed to Strain, for Snoop Dogg's Cashmere Agency and the horror nature short, Creatures of Earth, for Nat Geo and All 3 Media, he was inspired by current events to return to narrative writing.
Recent projects include Citadel Scavenger and the underground hit The BloodStone comic series.
