Classes Department Coordinator
Sebastian Martinez got his start in the entertainment industry as a child reporter for the YouTube channel, iKidsnowdotcom. There, he and his brother would interview many young celebrities in entertaining short segments. Some past guests include Selena Gomez, The Jonas Brothers, and Ariana Grande (the latter interview having recently resurfaced on Tiktok, and amassing over millions of views).It was this experience that led to him signing with an agency and becoming a working actor. Ever since then, he’s garnered many different roles and guest star appearances on shows such as The Last O.G, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt, and Blue Bloods. Other projects include commercials for clients such as Canon, Jell-O, and Mastercard!
He is now a proud graduate of NYU’s Tisch School of the Arts, where he focused on writing/directing for episodic television. During his time, Sebastian ran one of NYU’s premier sketch groups, Comic Sans, and was a member of one of NYU’s premier improv groups, Home Improv-ment. In addition to producing a variety of intermediate and advanced student films, he also amassed internships at development companies such as Dive (What We Do In The Shadows, Reservoir Dogs) and Jax Media (Russian Doll, Emily In Paris, Desus & Mero). Through all this, he manages to still make time for live-comedy in NYC. He’s currently performing improv in NYC as a part of BABY BUMPER CARS, a two-person improv group and GO TO YOUR ROOM, a four-person improv team. In the future, his dream is to continue in the comedy realm in a variety of roles and eventually, create his own original comedy series!
