My first experimental film. I was out with my friend 'Richspoiltguy' and as i was lying down on this outdoor rooftop, I used my camera phone to shoot down this scene of my friend text messaging another person. I find that it gives a very mellow and subdued sad tone. So I came up with a storyline to fit this setting. So here it is. A very simple film about a boy who got dumped by his boyfriend, who found that he would rather lead a heterosexual lifestyle. The voiceover (done by yours truly) shows what is going on in our protagonist's head. The text apprearing on the screen is what our protagonist types on his mobile phone. I hope you enjoy it. Yours Truly, Matt Your Friendly Neighborhood Guy! (..less)

As part of the "Turn It On Tour" (sorry, "Turn It On SELECTION OF SHOWS!") Genesis hit my local city of Manchester (England, United Kingdom UK, Great Britain) yesterday. I support Manchester United so it made it extra special for me to see my favourite band play at my favourite football team's stadium. I did not film the whole show as I wanted a bit of a dance and a sing. Plus my arm started to ache after about 10 minutes of holding the camera in the air and it also was a bit annoying to keep checking that I had a good image because I wanted to watch the show! It is not excellent quality as it was only filmed on my mobile phone (Sony K800i). This is where Phil talks to us for the first time. As well as being a really good singer, drummer and performer he demonstrates his excellent ability to interact with the crowd. Just wait until you see the AUDIENCE PARTICIPATION bit before Domino which is featured in video number 9. They then go on to play "No Son of Mine" (..less)
