FILM LONDON LODESTARS: Martha Hood
PRODUCER
"Martha is a future mega producer. She has huge energy and commitment to the work, eclectic and exciting taste, razor sharp development notes, a growing network and is calm under pressure. She deserves to be recognised for all her efforts behind the scenes to get new writers and directors seen and heard."
Georgia Goggin (Co-producer on Canvas 5)
Martha Hood is a London-based Producer and Development Executive. Her passion lies in finding bold projects from distinctive voices and her short films have played in festivals across the UK and Europe.

It premiered at London Film Festival 2021 as part of LFF for Free.
