Matt Mazereeuw
Hi, I’m Matt (they/them) and I'm a director-producer working across fiction and commercial projects, with additional expertise in video and film editing. My work centres on authentic, emotionally resonant storytelling—often exploring identity and human relationships. Alongside narrative work, I have experience directing and editing documentaries and instructional content.
I like to tell genuine stories about people that evoke emotion, with a focus on (Queer) identity and human relations. Together with Jordi van der Plank I created a film every month from 2019 to 2020 under the name Outcast Creatives. I made Aller en France in the pandemic and his most recent film Moe is in the festival circuit. A film about surviving in a chaotic household and having to grow up too fast.
Check out I DON’T F*CKING KNOW CLUB - An immersive theatre, rave and film project. I am the Creative Director and editor for the film.
New Wave Queer Cinema
It is not news that in the last 100+ years of cinema, people with a “different” sexual preference, skin colour, belief, gender etc. were barely represented or used as comedic carcatures and discrimanted against. But lately there is a slow, uphill movement of creators putting in extra effort for inclusivity. My passions lie in representing people from the LGBTQ+ community and our allies in a way that they can see themselves back in a positive light. My goal is to contribute to normalizing being “different” from the Hollywood norm and creating queer content that is engaging and hearfelt.
