The L.A. based production company, More Media, needs more Matthew Ray.
This past summer Matthew Ray moved out to Los Angeles for an experience that he will never forget. He left June 17th and started his production internship at More Media. He began as an unpaid intern and quickly moved to a paid position within the company.
“I learned more about the industry and how big productions work. How to write up a package and treatment to send to a client for a commercial,” says Matthew. He learned how the pre-production process works and felt that “this was the most important thing” he learned during his internship.
“Some of the productions that I was a part of was Blink 182, Kim Kardashian, and a lot of commercial shoots,” says Matthew. He worked hand-in-hand with the directors and was able to live the life of a Hollywood production crewmember.
He says that he “worked on multiple projects at the same time and there were always deadlines” that needed to be met. This was the stressful part of his internship “but completely worth it.”
More Media found trust in the Troy, OH native and have invited him back to L.A. to work for them once again. “I will be leaving in January to go back and engulf myself in the inspiring city,” Matthew says with a huge smile on his face.
He will finish his E-Media degree taking online courses from UC and enrolling in a Spanish course in Los Angeles.
I worked with Matthew last spring on our Senior Project, a horror short called Coming Attractions. I could tell that he had passion and confidence while on set with him. I wish him luck as he moves to L.A. and works with More Media.
