About Matt

Robert Warzecha and I are writing and directing partners. On the writing side, our feature animation screenplay JUNK ISLAND reached the semifinals in the Academy's Nicholl Fellowship competition, and we've had 2 other screenplays reach the quarterfinal round: 1) our most recent project, PROXY, and 2) our first screenplay STRAIN. We've also written a couple of television pilots as well.

As far as directing, we've only completed short films. Here are links to our work:
