“All artists who break new ground have to be massively technical. Director Robert Rodriguez (Sin City) once said that a creative person with technical ability is unstoppable. And I’m geeked. Ever since I made my first movie at about age 12, I’ve wanted to understand every aspect of how a movie is made - not just the creative process but also the technology. I really believe that in order to be creative today you have to know your tools like the back of your hand. We have a very unique methodology and workflow at Mars. The crux of it is that it is universal with respect to our work. Whether for our commercials, music videos, short films (like our recently released Waiting or our upcoming feature film, The Tokolosh), the same workflow and production methodology is applied. Mars has strategically invested in the infrastructure that allows us to do this. I have always said that If a picture is worth a thousand words then moving pictures are worth 10 times that’ so click on ‘Making of a Mars Production’ below to learn more about the Mars way.”

“Mars is a very unique production company. Practically everything required for producing and post-producing world-class commercial and film productions is executed by Mars in-house and as a result, our value proposition is that we are able to offer clients production value that belies the actual spend. When it comes to commercials, we can bid out into a client or an agency at tremendous savings to what their expectations will be while at the same time ensuring the production values that they want to achieve within budget. Even better, we make it look like they actually spent 10 times as much on the commercial.”
- Mayran Spiro, Executive Producer
