Factotum Pictures was founded by Jaydon Martin in 2021.
Jaydon Martin is a multidisciplinary filmmaker and artist whose practice is deeply rooted in the exploration of maligned cultures and mundane existence. Working class expression is at the forefront of his work both in front and behind the camera.
Martin draws a direct line between reality and the subconscious in pursuit of an ecstatic truth. Blending documentary with fiction in the urgent exploration of spirituality, nationalism, masculinity and class. Pushing his cinematic language towards a more emotionally charged aesthetic that absorbs the primal eye.
Jaydon’s films have screened internationally at venues and festivals, including at International Film Festival Rotterdam, Sydney Film Festival & Melbourne International Film Festival. His work has been written about in publications including The Guardian, Variety, Screen Daily, Criterion, Sight and Sound's Weekly Film Bulletin & The Monthly.
