Director Biography - Matt Genesis

I began my career in production as a choreographer and dancer while being featured in various mediums: music videos, commercials, and television shows. Most notably, I performed on the television series “America’s Best Dance Crew.”

Through my experience as a performer, I fell in love with production. I’ve spent most of my career as a director in Los Angeles working with brands such as Sony, BMW, Turtle Wax, and Quest Nutrition. I am currently based in Minneapolis, MN and primarily work in the LA and MSP markets.

My background in choreography gives my work a distinct rhythm and pace. It also influenced my love of moving the camera. I often view the camera as an actor to be choreographed in relation to the action of the scene. My work is extremely stylized. Communicating a feeling of grandeur, surrealism, and inspiration are at the forefront of my creative process.
