Born and residing in the suburbs of Toronto, Canada, Matt adopted a passion for visual storytelling in his teenage years through photography and studying the masterful work and meticulous attention to detail of the flawless Stanley Kubrick, the storytelling weaving of Paul Thomas Anderson, and the comedy virtuosity of Kevin Smith. In 2008, Rovet began his film career by working on Albert Shin’s (Disappearance At Clifton Hill, In Her Place) feature film debut Point Traverse.

​

Experimenting with a palette of genres throughout film school, Matt directed using Super 16mm film, Super 8mm film, and produced on 35mm film, in addition to various digital formats. He then traveled through Israel before pursuing further education in Media Studies and Digital Communications. At the University of Guelph-Humber, Rovet won the first Emerge Media Award for Videography in 2015 for his student documentary project, Internment, focussing on the difficulties of starting a career in the film industry while struggling with entering adulthood.

 

After four years in his self-designed studio producing and editing corporate video for Multi-Health Systems Inc., Matt pursued his Canadian Drone Pilot Certification. He is currently a Senior Videographer and Content Producer at Moneris, as well as freelancing on his own and with Fook Communications. With a combined 12 years of experience working on film, television, web, and corporate productions, Matt continues to pursue his passion for creating authentic visual stories.
