His first feature film, Hamilton, which he wrote, directed, and edited on 16mm was released in 2006. Called a "minor miracle" by the New Yorker, Hamilton continues to tour festivals, museums, and art house theatres around the world (the Viennale, Centre Pompidou, Anthology Film Archives) and appeared on many year-end best lists at the time of its release, including John Water's 2006 Top Ten in Artforum International. A recipient of a media grant from the Maryland State Arts Council, Matt has begun pre-production on his second feature, Metal Gods. Selected for participation in IFP's Emerging Narrative Program, the screenplay won the Panasonic Digital Filmmaking Grant Grand Prize during the 30th Annual Independent Film Week. Locally, Matt's photography has appeared at the Current Gallery, Gallery 229, and in the Fall 2008 issue of Locus Magazine. brerrab@mac.com, website, (410) 516-5048 Suzanne Roos (Senior Lecturer, Film and Media Studies and Romance Languages and Literature Department) French cinema, film theory sroos@jhu.edu; (410) 516-8059 Robert Roper (Visiting Associate Professor, Film and Media Studies and Writing Seminars) Screenwriting roper@jhu.edu; (410) 516-6287 Meredith Ward (Lecturer, Film and Media Studies) Meredith Ward's interests include cultural history as it relates to film, sound theory and auditory culture, gender, and the history of film reception.
