Although he has not directed many TV commercials he is not a stranger in the world of advertising.
Before his directing career, he was the Head of Art and sometimes also the Creative director at Saatchi, London where he created ads for clients such as The National Lottery, Powergen, Castlemaine XXXX and British Airways, to name a few.
Together with Perfo Production House he has made two TV ads for T-MOBILE Macedonia.
Matt says:” Every brand has a story. Every script should tell a story. My job as a director is to make sure that all disciplines in film-making are harnessed to make sure the audience engages with the story. If you’re lucky, very lucky, you get a script with a great story."
