During his academic years at the University of Bordeaux, France, Mathieu Weschler directed the short film "Poursuite". This feature was noticed by a producer who gave him a chance to direct commercials. Since then, he has produced around twenty ads for Internet and TV. In the mean time, Weschler read scenarios for the Gaumont Company during two years. Among several film projects in development, the Trashmaster is the most atypical. This thriller made entirely with the 3D engine of the GTA 4 video game, based on an original screenplay, required two years of work.
