Zach Math from his iPhone

Mobifest had a mobile lunch with Zach Math on his trusty iPhone. Well, actually his not so trusty iPhone; Zach's had a few ringer related issues lately. He mentioned that he felt forced to upgrade his mobile hardware after missing meetings by not receiving email while on the go. And boy, is he on the go.
Zach began his career in Toronto, directing commercials, and eventually moved to LA where he has worked on ad campaigns for Burger King and Orkin. As expected, Zach has picked up some skills on the West Coast, admitting "LA has taught me how to pee in a bottle when stuck on a freeway". Although an important skill, we think the most influential LA experience Zach spoke about was meeting Lesily Chilcott, producer of "An Inconvenient Truth", who inspired him to pursue documentary filmmaking.
Along with filmmaking partner Jonah Bekhor, Zach is currently working on a feature doc. He just recently returned from filming in Italy (the photo was taken there, Zach is on the right taking in a bocce game), Germany and soon to be shooting in Iceland. When Mobifest asked him about the doc, Zach admitted that he and Jonah promised each other not to speak about it until the first stage of editing had wrapped. Thankfully, Zach did provide a bit of info, he told us, "the film is about a collector and his quest to complete his collection, it's about obsession, Science and Society and one of the most absurdly hilarious and intriguing stories I¹ve ever heard".
