Matt FeuryABOUT MATT FEURY
In Matt’s words: “As Director of Marketing for Pro Video, it’s my job to lead the marketing strategy of Avid’s video editing systems and their related storage and infrastructure solutions. A big part of my job, and certainly my favorite, is the creation of content that educates and inspires existing and potential customers. A prime example of this is our podcast The Rough Cut. It’s given me the opportunity to connect future filmmakers with industry pro’s such as Morgan Spurlock, Kevin Smith, Doug Liman and Ben Affleck. Since joining Avid in 1994 I’ve had the good fortune to meet and collaborate with customers from all over the world, in every kind of project. And I’m deeply grateful to all of them for letting me be a part of their journey.”

barry_frechetteABOUT BARRY FRECHETTE
In Barry’s own words: “I’m an ad guy and I’ve grown up in production. TV ads, videos, websites. All that stuff. But what I really love is helping people make things. When I came across this story, I knew that this was something that really needed to be told. That is why I have jumped in with both feet. The people in the production community and ad community here in Boston have been so incredible thus far. I am very lucky to be around these people. I know it sounds lame to say it, but I am still in this business because of the caliber of the people it attracts.

I live just north of Boston, in Billerica, Massachusetts. The real joy in my life is my family. “
