Voice acting powerhouse Marta Svetek has built an incredible legacy across major global gaming and animation franchises. Gamers instantly recognize her iconic voice work in Five Nights at Freddy’s, Valorant, and Battlefield.
Svetek stepped out from behind the microphone to take center stage in the new survival horror film Savage Prey as both the lead actor and an executive producer.
A Multifaceted Creative Force
Svetek does far more than star as the resilient protagonist, Ava. She also stepped behind the camera as an executive producer, contributed to voice direction, and helped with post-production.
During our sit-down interview, Svetek opened up about balancing both creative sides of production and her intense role, and how her hands-on dedication helped shape the film into a deeply personal, atmospheric survival thriller.
A Desperate Search in the Highlands
Written, directed, and edited by David Ryan Keith, the indie thriller was filmed entirely in the breathtaking Scottish Highlands. The story follows Ava a year after her young son mysteriously vanishes in the countryside.
Returning to search for answers, Ava becomes trapped in a sadist’s twisted hunting game. The nightmare forces her into a relentless struggle for survival against a masked predator.

High Stakes and a Talented Ensemble
The feature delivers an intense, character-driven story blending deep emotional roots with relentless isolation. Alongside Svetek, the ensemble includes Steve Weston, Ryan Livingstone, Hannaj Bang Bendz, and Sara Figueiredo.
The production team cleverly uses the vast, unforgiving wilderness to ramp up pure claustrophobic dread. Ultimately, the raw scenery paired with Svetek’s commanding performance creates a standout indie horror experience.
