Martin Sommerdag

At a very young age, Martin Sommerdag began to experiment with short films using his father's old super-8 film camera and in the 90's he began using worn out VHS tapes - today he still has a very strong predilection towards these two extinct formats, which is reflected in his work. However, not being able to get into The Danish Film School, he chose an international film school in Germany called Filmtrain Film School and graduated with the critically acclaimed documentary Dead Man Singing in 2006. In 2008, Martin Sommerdag presented the scary biological research film Ebola Warning which is CDC-footage from a covert and classified virus outbreak. Ebola Warning has already been screened at both New York Film Festival and Los Angeles Film Festival. Martin Sommerdag was also the original creator of the shocking and provocative film project NOT4COPS, which delivered free film footage of various crimes shot from the criminal's point of view. The project nearly got Martin Sommerdag arrested, because of the high realism in the footage. But the master tapes proved it was all a hoax, directed masterfully by Martin Sommerdag. In 2014, Martin Sommerdag directed the short film Tunguska Diaries - a suspense story that revolves around the KGB and an eerie unidentified flying object. Tunguska Diaries has aroused keen international interest by US producers and has already been screened at NOFI-Yerevan Film Festival. Martin Sommerdag has also worked as an in-house video producer at Stylepit, producing interviews, web series, promotional videos, and TV commercials worldwide.
