About me
Matt Nye is a writer, director, producer, and editor. He began his career in 2004 at the age of 17, adapting and directing "Caligula C.E.O." for his high school's theater program. At 20, he wrote, directed, and produced a no budget indie feature while attending his junior year at university. The film "Two for Three" screened at Tribeca Cinemas later that year and received distribution through Amazon. Since graduation, he's self-funded a number of low budget short films, has written seven feature-length screenplays, and two pilots for television.
His scripts "Throne of Blood" and “The Man Who Left His Wife and Had a Nifty Time” have both been recognized as Second Rounders by the Austin Film Festival. "Venor" has recently been acknowledged by Hollywood Horrorfest and was in the top twenty percentile of the Academy Nicholl Fellowship.
As a working professional, he's been employed by national organizations, government agencies, and global corporations in Chicago, Washington, D.C., New York City, and Los Angeles. His recent credits include work for both Warner Bros. Discovery and Rolling Stone.
In 2024, his short films "Anyone for President" and “Happy Hour” screened at the TCL Chinese Theatres in Hollywood.
