Selected clients include Gucci, Givenchy, Rick Owens, Patrick Wolf, Hercules and Love Affair, Austra, Marc Jacobs, Mykki Blanco, and Stefano Pilati. His work has been featured on Channel 4 UK and BBC and in publications such as Dazed, Fader, and Vogue.

Matt has a gift for spearheading delicate and moving music videos, focusing on powerful topics such as gender inclusion, diversity, and sexual identity. His most awarded work, a long-form music video for Mykki Blanco’s “High School Never Ends,” screened at the 2017 SXSW Film Festival and was shortlisted at the CICLOPE Festival, nominated for two UKMVAs, and won “Best Cinematography in a Music Video” at the Camerimage Festival.
