news from the world of Matt Johnson
New Video! New Contest! Check them out!
Hey all! I'm back with news from the video interweb - a new video and a newcontest! Both videos are commercial parodies this week, but that makes 'em super short.
First up, I directed a new video for The Apple Sisters - it's a commercial for one of their "sponsors" - Corndy.
Check it out here.
Also, a video I directed for The Royal We a while back has been entered in the Crackle.com "Moving Targets" Contest - it's a commercial for Cherry Pop Jeans, the perfect apparel for the oversexed tween pop star in your life.
Go take a look and rate it if you can - you may have to join the site to vote, which is a lot to ask, but if you have the time and inclination, would be great.
Thanks for watching - look out for more in coming weeks, including a music video from Cherry Pop! As always, if you enjoyed what you saw, pass it on!
Thanks!
Matt Johnson

Also - I directed a short for a group called The Apple Sisters (you know them from the postcard) and it made it to the final four of the 10-Items-or-Less Contest at the San Francisco Sketchfest! You can view it here:
