BIO
Collaborating with top directors, Matthew's narrative and commercial work have taken him to all corners of the United States, as far away as China, and back to his beloved backyard of New York City.
Matthew began his career in New York City in 2008 after attending a music conservatory studying jazz theory and then obtaining a Bachelor of Science with a Concentration in Marketing. Essentially self-taught, Matthew started out shooting music videos that led to commercials and eventually narrative projects.
Recent projects include the feature film "Acolyte" with its world wide premiere at Dances With Films LA, and the show "Before They Kill Again" on HBO Max.
Matthew continues to film cinematic commercials with clients such as Ford Motors, TIME, Ally Bank, Goldman Sachs, BMW, the NFL, Rolling Stone, and boutique fashion brands.
Listen to my interview on The Film Situation Podcast episode #48:
"We dive into his early days filming music videos in New York City, his passion for narrative storytelling, and how he uses framing, lighting, and subtext to enhance story and character. Matthew also opens up about the collaborative nature of filmmaking, discussing his work with directors, production designers, and actors, and how he balances meticulous technical preparation with on-the-spot creative instincts." - host Zef Cota.
