Martin Roker (Film Production + Emerging Talent)

I'm a UK Managing Director at KAUS Films, a Brazilian production company now based in the UK, working across film, advertising, and mixed media. I previously led a global division of directors at Black Dog Films, playing a key role in shaping the company’s creative output and reputation—experience I now bring to KAUS.

My work includes collaborations with artists such as Beyoncé, Jay-Z, Bruce Springsteen, Rammstein, The Chemical Brothers, and Coldplay, alongside projects for brands and cultural institutions including Alexander McQueen, Madonna, Vans, Ninja Tune, and GQ.

I specialise in developing ideas from concept through to execution—assembling the right teams and ensuring ambitious work is delivered to the highest standard.

Supporting emerging talent remains central to my practice, through ongoing mentoring and partnerships with organisations including SWSW, BFI Future Film Festival, and Fomo House.


Information for mentees:

  • Please arrive 5 minutes early to check in for your mentor session. Late arrivals (anyone not present at the start of their booked session) may lose their slot to a walk-up attendee.
  • If a session is fully booked, you’re welcome to try as a walk-up in case a booked attendee doesn’t attend.
  • We would recommend preparing a brief introduction about yourself, along with any specific questions or areas you’d like guidance on from your mentor.
