About Me
Hi There! My name is Matthew Collat, I'm a Videographer and videos editor and this here is my portfolio.
On this page you can find some of the work I've done. While I've had the opportunity to work on a variety of different projects my passion is coming up with ideas and writing.
I excel at seeing the worlds in ways others don't and also at coming up with unique and interesting solutions to problems. I hope you enjoy yourself as you checkout my works.
Here is a picture of me with my pet lizard Drazil.
Corporate Wine Video
This here is a fake commercial I made of this wine company for an assignment. It was made in what was leftover of my very rugged home studio that I put together during COVID.
Makeup Demonstration
This is a demonstration video of how to do fake burns using makeup. It was done with a team of video production students in collaboration with the makeup students of Durham College. The goal was to help them make a tutorial video for their own portfolios.
Durham College Safety Video
This is a video I made for an assignment with the goal being to make a video that can be put up on the Durham College website to help inform people on how to avoid sustaining injury from various hazards caused by icy or slippery surfaces.
​
This was also selected as best in class by the committee that was selected to determine which ones they might use.
Tank Diggs- No Cap
This is a music video I helped make for Mr. Diggs. In this production I was the lead camera operator. It was also the first project I ever worked on for an actual client.
Imagine If Live Concert Recording
This is a piece of a concert I recorded along with a team of Durham College students. On this project I was assistant director as well as filming using the gimble in the middle of the crowd.
Mock Interview
This is an interview I recorded of my friend for an assignment. Everything in this is shot and edited by me.
The Tragic Tale of Pants Man
This assignment I made while at TUS. It's a sequel to a video I made a few years ago. Made entirely by me it is a comedy piece.
The Man Under The Bed
This is a short video based on a silly idea I had. I made it for an assignment and I am very proud of how it turned out while editing this I taught myself how to better use reverb to make sounds appear as if they are coming from other rooms or directions.
Card Game Skit
This is a short skit I made myself, I wrote, shot, acted in and edited it together. It's just a brief comedy piece but I enjoy and I think it adds more representation of my own style of writing and editing.
Donut Edit
This short video is a piece I put together as part of a workshop in one of my editing classes. It was done in a couple of hours using only provided footage, the voiceover was done using a text to speech generator. I think this is one of my best pieces for showing off how I can find different perspectives.
My Journey So Far
Starting with a Video Production degree at Durham College in 2020. I have since made my way to Europe, where I am working on a Bachelor of Science at TUS.
In the future I hope to go into writing and directing and find work in both Europe and North America.
Work Placement at Filmcel
For my work placement I chose to apply to Filmcel as the more hands on approach makes it more appealing then many traditional work placement opportunites. I intend to learn as much as I can before moving on towards my career.
