I began my journey in high school when I purchased a Sony FX1 prosumer camera. From there, I gained my Avid Certification and began my professional career. I have shot everything from sports to commercial videos for multi-national clientele. My previous clients include but are not limited to CST, CSS, Tribune Media, Signal Marketing Group, and The Baddish Group. I thrive in a fast-paced environment with tight deadlines. I like to be where the action is. Nothing is off limits for me when it comes to getting the shot. I believe in showing as much emotion as possible in every frame of video. Whether shooting a crime scene or a travel series, the emotion is there, and I will portray that in the best way possible. I shoot on the latest and greatest equipment in the industry. My weapon of choice, the Canon EOS Cinema series cameras with L-Series lenses.

My name is Matt Locke and I've been working in the Austin film scene for about 6 years now. I started as a PA at TBD Post while I was still in film school and worked my way up to graphics editor. Wanting to focus on production, I started taking PA gigs and getting on set. I got to work on a lot of amazing commercials and music videos. Around the same time I was head of video production on Austin Radiological Association's internet advertising campaign where I learned heaps about making high-quality videos on a tiny budget. I took what I learned started Brilliant Boy Media with some fellow freelancers from film school and spent a few years making mini-docs and music videos for Austin bands. Most recently I was an assistant editor on "My 600lb Life" at Megalomedia.

I am an avid videographer who has been making films since 2011. My first project was a short web series and from there I branched out into narrative filmmaking, commercial videography and production, wedding videography, and live streaming. As an independent filmmaker, I often find myself wearing many hats from pre- production through post production. My skills and experience includes directing, cinematography, editing, storyboarding, color grading and basic mixing and mastering of audio. I have also created simple animations and title sequences.

I work in large and medium format photography, color and b&w. I run a skate shop and clothing line called EVRYNG. I’m currently working in central Texas near Austin, though I travel regularly to southeast Texas (Beaumont, Orange, Houston, etc.), and am available for photographic commissions throughout the state. Abstract connections are what I seek in my photography—a collection of colors, lines, shapes and forms that tell a story which can not be conveyed by words. Please contact me via email for any questions or concerns.
