Video guy looking for help. Has movies instead of resumes Mar 08, 2007
Hey I'm Matt from Toronto, Canada. Home of the worlds largest freestanding structure... why are you Dubai people trying to take that away from us.. it's like the only good thing about the city :P I'm sort of looking to get out of the frozen north and get some work in a new, hip and warm place. Anyways I'm completely lost on how to find work in general and the whole it's another country thing is making me extra scared and lost (Sigh.) I'm a film and video specialist (I make pretty pictures for a living.) I do a lot of animation, web work corporate stuff etc and so forth.

Anyways before I put up my Resume in all it's glory. For those of you who want to see it here is my reel for my production company (It's a Tax thing in Canada.)

And here is a nice little movie I produced http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT8-g0uPGiU
