Matt’s first feature-length film was made in an unorthadox way: as an interactive television model shot 90% on a green-screen stage. Recognizing the fact that some people want a lean-forward interactive experience, somewhere between a video game and movie, and that others still want to flick on the DVD player and do nothing, Genesi: The First Key was a designed to be a flash-based character-oriented interactive television model allowing a viewer to select one of seven characters at the outset of the film, and experience that character as the protagonist of the story. Afterward, selecting another of the characters would drastically change the impression of the very same events, making motivations clear and creating a viewing experience where the audience is not told who the ‘good guy’ or ‘bad guy’ is, and let to decide for themselves.
