Who I am:

Matt Mattson

What I do now: make movies, write screenplays, web materials, and score music to film.

My background: treasure diver & aviation fiend . . .

Flew everything single engine I could get my hands on including large radials, and biplanes. Learned low level flight ops for Ag and film work from WWII pilots Johnny Neill, John Boggs, and many others (the same guys who perfected skip bombing at Rabaul Harbor) at Ayres in the early 80's and helped them pass their special skills on to A-10 IP's out of Dothan AFB later. Operated everything up to A-300, B-757, DC-10's, and Lockheed L-10ll's at Eastern Airlines and others.

Aviation Films:

Worked with some of the greats chasing treasure in the 80's and had a blast -- located the Civil War blockade runners at Bayport Florida for the State of Florida and used that knowledge to do the underwater films you'll see below on gold and located thousands of other sites available here free, along the way becoming a 100 Ton licensed Coast Guard Master:

Diving & Exploration:

Boating Films:

Documenting my on and off again 4400 mile journey by boat around the United States.

Boating Section:

20 years after the original publish, it is still used by researchers today to find shipwrecks and dive sites.

(this is the only forum I oversee)

Movies: there are almost 100 films I have made or collaborated on hosted at various sites and servers worldwide, with many on Youtube for free download:

Since 1996, 24 hours a day, someone is downloading a film, music, website, or using something I've collaborated on in their work & that's pretty humbling for a skinny little kid from Clermont, Florida.
