Melody Martišković was born in Zagreb, Croatia, where she completed her primary and secondary education. In 2024, she graduated with a Master degree in Acting from the Academy of Dramatic Art at the University of Zagreb.

During her studies, she took part in numerous theatre and film projects. One of the most notable was her first professional stage production in the Croatian National Theatre – the play Sorry (2022), directed by Bobo Jelčić, created as part of the European theatre project Prospero. The production toured internationally, with performances in Madrid (Spain), Liège (Belgium), and Maribor (Slovenia). That same year, she was cast in the play The Enchanted Forest (2022), directed by Lea Anastazija Fleger, produced by the Dubrovnik Summer Festival, which successfully ran for three seasons. She has also worked with various independent theatre groups and organizations discovering new and more experimental theatre forms.

In addition to theatre, Melody appeared in several short film exercises during her studies, collaborating with emerging directors such as S. Grgurić (Our first hit), V. Skerk (Aleksandar), and took on small roles in Croatian television productions, as well as an episode role in a Netflix series Medical police.

Beyond the stage and screen, she actively works with her voice — narrating audiobooks for children and young adults, recording radio dramas, and voicing commercial advertisements.

Apart from acting, she is deeply engaged in physical activities, especially sports and dance. She has attended workshops in contemporary dance and ballet at the Zagreb Dance Center, and is currently training in aerial acrobatics (silks and hoop) at Triko Cirkus Teatar. For the past six years, she has also been practicing yoga regularly.
Another great passion of hers is languages. She has been studying Italian for two years, including one month spent in Florence attending a language course at the Michelangelo Institute.
