About

Hello, my name is Matt. I used to genuinely enjoy making films. I say “used to” because I have not actually finished a piece in several years. That seems weird to me, because I don’t ever remember disliking filmmaking. So what happened? Life happened: I moved on from my dream of “becoming a filmmaker” and took on various full time jobs of a more practical nature to pay rent and student loans.

I have started this blog in an effort to more closely examine why I stopped filmmaking in the first place. After all, a wise person once said:

“One can only evolve through self examination and criticism.”

Who said that? Nobody. I made it up. My goal with this blog is to help myself evolve as both a person and as a filmmaker, or like a Pokemon. Just wait until you see my cringe-inducing Pokemon short!

Anyway– I have 19 (mostly awful) short films that I was either majorly or solely responsible for and will be uploading piecemeal on a monthly basis, providing insightful criticism and commentary along the way. If you somehow stumbled upon this work, either by chance or through my own nagging, I am so– so sorry for what you are about to endure.
