What a crazy two weeks it's been. The Coronavirus. COVID-19. In Omaha. Coromaha. Matthew got out of the house for the first time in over a week to keep his distance from everyone but try to get an idea of what things feel like out in the world. So join him as he checks out the riverfront in Omaha to not only get a sense of this new world we live in, but to try to work though just what he and Midland Pictures are going to do now that business has dropped off COMPLETELY and new projects don't seem likely any time soon. Do we pivot? Do we slash prices? Do we give up and go find "normal" jobs?Do we double-down on marketing and content and get ourselves in front of people to keep inspiring brands, businesses, non-profits to tell stories? Let's figure it out together.

WWDC '19 is in the books, and we thought we'd throw our own opinions around about the new Mac Pro and XDR Display AND that $999 stand. Matthew's chatting about whether or not the new Mac Pro is a solution for Midland Pictures and how photographers might be the MOST excited about that XDR Display and stand. Check it out!

It's time for a new Midland Pictures. We've been at it for two years, and it's taken us two years to really figure out what kind of company we want to be. We've loved working with our clients to bring their stories to life, but we want to go farther, we want to get *more* involved in the process, the collaboration - 2019 is when it all begins. So here's Matthew talkin' all about it. Thanks for watching! FOLLOW MIDLAND: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/midlandpict...

I earned a BFA in Acting after spending 4 years in an intensive theater program to become a professional actor. And I failed miserably. So then I moved to Florida and earned an MFA in Screenwriting after spending 2 years in an intensive film program. So next, naturally, I moved to Los Angeles. After three years in LA I failed, so I moved to Omaha. And I'm currently a failing screenwriter. So what now? Well, I started a production company - Midland Pictures - to create original content on my own terms, and I've never been happier. So what now? I have no idea. But I'm going to try to figure it out.
