Matt is a director person from Canada. His wry sense of humour and cinematic eye come from being reared on a steady diet of Kids In The Hall and Art House cinema. Before IMDb Matt was the friend you’d call to settle a bet about who played Lt. Bogomil in Beverly Hills Cop.
Matt put himself through film school by working in casting houses where he honed his skill for working with actors and finding awkward comedy in small human interactions. Since then he’s worked as a writer, editor, and actor, which has helped define his strength as a director of performance-based comedy.
Matt has directed campaigns for big-shot brands such as Google, Visa, Ford, BMO, Meta, McDonalds, NBA, Kraft, among others. He also wrote and directed the award-winning feature film Room For Rent which won Best Feature at the L.A. Comedy Film Festival, Chicago Comedy Film Festival, The Canadian Film Fest, and both Best Direction and Best Writing in a Feature at the Canadian Comedy Awards.
Matt credits his decade-plus career as a director to his collaborative nature, and willingness to accept other people’s good ideas as his own. When Matt’s not watching movies he’s eating, sleeping, has a family, and jogs on occasion to counteract all the eating, movie watching and piggybacking. What else… uh, he can air drum Led Zeppelin’s ‘Good Times Bad Times’ almost perfectly… he’s worked with professional athletes, Hollywood actors, VFX, animals, explosives… oh, and Ronny Cox played Lt. Bogomil in the 1984 hit action comedy Beverly Hills Cop, so, take that Internet.
