About me

My name is Matt Byrd and I am a graduate from the University of Colorado at Denver. While in school, I focused my studies on directing, editing, and cinematography and developed a strong passion for editing and cinematography.

I have since continued my passion outside of school by becoming a freelance filmmaker. I am currently engaged in personal projects as well as projects for small companies which include sporting events, photography shoots, weddings, and short films. In addition, I worked on several sets including, “Hana Ranch” where I was an Production Assistant for the film by Mitch Dickman and, “The Holly” directed by Julien Rubinstein. Even though these productions were small, they provided a solid experience and greater enthusiasm for creating films.

I am an extremely hard worker and a creative thinker that excels at working with others and a natural-born leader.
