We created Mayrose because we weren’t satisfied. We knew there was a better way.
More craft. More creative. More tailored processes. More considered action.
Most importantly, more simplicity and efficiency in the right places.
We’ve selected the very best people from across the industry and beyond to be a part of what we’re doing:
We’re making truly great content that makes people feel good. Content that people enjoy and remember for the right reasons.
Our inspiring culture and clever processes mean that we feel good when we create it too. And so will you.

Marty started his career developing film concepts and trailers for Hollywood studios, eventually found himself on reality TV *yikes*, and has since found refuge in storytelling that gets to the heart of the human element.
He’s driven by a deep curiosity for just about everything, and seeks to capture resonant stories that revolve around the human condition and our relationship with the spaces in which we find ourselves intertwined.
