Hi, my name is Matthew Bright.

I’ve been an avid photographer for as long as I can remember.

Though, I spent most of my military career in film,

as a military combat camera & broadcast journalist.

Family is my most important influence.

I’ve worked at historical monuments,

on major training productions,

with celebrities,

and with senior military leadership.

I find inspiration in the simplest of things.

The happiest times my family’s had, were in Hawaii.

As a child, it was expected I’d work in the arts.

My mantra is Productive Procrastination.

When I’m stuck on one assignment,

I look outside the work and find inspiration elsewhere.

I studied Political Science at Radford University,

and Video Production at the Defense Information School.

I earned Adobe Certified Expert status in 2011,

acknowledges that

Matthew S Bright

[ID #ADB271435]

is an Adobe Certified Expert in Premiere Pro CS5

presented August 11, 2011

and a degree in Mass Communications in 2014.

Inspiration is everywhere.

When I left the military in 2014,

my family and I moved back to Germany.

I began studying Computer Animation

in 2015, through Full Sail University,

where I’ve maintained a 3.26 GPA.

“You can't use up creativity.

The more you use, the more you have.” - Maya Angelou

Everything I do is for these two beautiful girls,

and for their incredible mother.
