Richard Martin
Richard Martin is a filmmaker from Vancouver Canada. At 19 he began directing and editing documentary films at the National Film Board of Canada. He was inspired by the West Coast film scene of Dave Rimmer and Al Razutis and began his own explorations in cinema. "Diminished", produced in 1979 won Honorable Mention at the 9th Northwest Film Festival and screened at Ann Arbor. Gene Youngblood described the film as “A delicately structured non-verbal poem about loss, time and memory, closer in style to Michael Snow or Hollis Frampton than to Alain Resnais... A documentary of the heart.” He worked extensively in film and television before returning to personal work with Mixed Signals which premiered at the 55th Berlin International Film Festival. He has straddled the worlds of mainstream and experimental film exploring time, memory and cinematic convention.
