Based in Toronto, Canada, Chavin Martel is a multidisciplinary filmmaker known for blending 8mm film into stop motion, projection, and collage techniques to craft visually compelling and emotionally resonant stories. Their work explores memory, identity, and the surreal spaces between reality and esoterica.

With a background in both visual arts and experimental film, they merge analog and digital processes to create layered narratives that challenge traditional cinematic forms. Whether working on short films, documentaries or music videos, Chavin transforms everyday materials into poetic, moving images that captivate and provoke.

I’m currently available for consulting engagements.
