- And was nominated for Digital Tutors Instructor of the Year.

I was the Assistant Director for the Breckenridge Festival of Films for five years. Have been the Executive Director of the Epic Shorts Student Film Festival for fifteen years. Worked closely to the Director of the Tonkawa Film Festivals Inaugural year. Abd I have worked on several indy / student films, and was an honorary (non-union) crew member for “Dumb and Dumber” and “Christmas Vacation”.
My client list is very extensive and ranges from a long list of local to national / world-wide industry companies (ATT, Cingular, and Honda to name a few). I have also directed several student led projects ranging from a diabetes video game, to Keep Oklahoma Beautiful campaigns, to creating 3D assets for a documentary about America’s worst maritime disaster “The Sultana”. I was also one of the four founders of Digital-Tutors (the largest digital content creation training systems in the world).
Of course your know that I am a graduate of The University of Oklahoma. I've been in the television and film industry for more than thirty years. I have Taught for Arts Adventure Summer Camp for twenty years.
- I continue to teach, and am the director of the Digital Media Institute at Northern Oklahoma College, for twenty-one years so far.
Outwork your competition. - Brad Matson
