Martin, a talented individual, was born in 1970 in Cranhill, Glasgow. It wasn't until he reached the age of 27 that he discovered his passion for acting. During his training in film and television productions, he was simultaneously directing his first short film. However, his acting debut took an unexpected turn when one of the actors failed to appear for his scene, prompting Martin to step in and take on the role himself. This experience ignited his enthusiasm for acting, and he subsequently obtained an agent, leading to a rapid succession of acting opportunities.
In the year 2000, Martin made his feature film debut in "Pasty Faces," a production directed by David Baker, produced by Christopher Figg, and Noel Gay Motion Pictures. He played the role of Bobby, a disheveled and unemployed actor who resided in the back of a dilapidated Greyhound bus in the Hollywood hills, accompanied by his friend Steve (Gary Cross). The film received a theatrical release and garnered positive reviews in Scotland. Following this success, Martin received offers from other filmmakers, and he went on to star in "The Ticking Man" for Steve Simpson and Scottish Screens, portraying Johnny Munroe, a drug courier. Throughout his career, Martin has continued to work in various aspects of film-making, from short films to feature-length productions.
