'S e an glasadh-sluaigh, ri linn Covid-19 a thug air grunn dhaoine cruthachail an cuid obrach a chur air loidhne agus Marcas nam measg. Le sin, thug sin air sgilean ùra a ionnsachadh a thaobh cruthachadh is deasachadh bhideo, fuaim agus ùrlaran meadhanan-sòsisealta a chleachdadh gus luchd-èisteachd is -leughaidh seana is ùra a choinneachadh.
Tha Marcas air a bhith beò air na meadhanan sòisealta fad ùine mhòr le deagh shluagh ga leanntainn air Facebook, Twitter is Instagram. Ann an 2020 chruthaich e pròifil air TikTok agus 's ann an-sin a tha an luchd-leantainn as motha aige - còrr is 9k.
Bidh Marcas ag ùrachadh an sianal YouTube aige gu cunbhalach le film-dhàin agus bhideothan-ciùil. Tha e a-nis am measg nan sgròbhadairean as motha a bhios ag obair le film-dhàin ann an Alba gus dreach lèirsinneach a chur air a chuid fhaclan. B' e am film-dhàn aige 'An Leabhar II' a choisinn àite am measg nan Dàn as Fheàrr de 2020 aig Leabharlann Bàrdachd na h-Alba - a' chiad film-dhàn a bha riamh air an liosta sin.
