At the age of ten, Martijn moved from The Netherlands to Ann Arbor,
Michigan. He studied film at the University of Michigan where he
directed a number of award-winning student films. After graduation he
went to Hollywood and directed five music videos for alternative bands
including Deke Dickerson, The Sprague Brothers, Randy Fuller (The Bobby
Fuller Four), and Fortune and Maltese. Martijn has since made a

Clowes (Eightball, 'Ghostworld'). While enjoying a successful career as
a Gaffer, he has since written and directed the animated educational
