Ever wandered what the creative process is behind the films, tv shows and theatre productions you watch? Well, crew chats is a podcast going behind the scenes and chatting to the crew that help make these productions. Matt Reitsma studied at the Rhode Island School of Design with the intention of studying Fashion Design but later transferred to Textiles, when he found he had a passion for it. After graduating, Matt moved home to Philadelphia to set up a print studio and began working for the Philadelphia Opera Company and thereafter working for many theatres on both the East and West Coast of America. After working for a number of years in textile departments for theatres, Matt transitioned into the film world in Los Angeles, beginning with some dyeing on The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. This exposed him to film designers and supervisors, which subsequently led to working for designers such as Deborah Scott and Colleen Atwood. As a part of his working practices, Matt is aiming to reduce waste in his work processes, by trying to reduce water waste and to decrease the use of toxic chemicals in order to create a more sustainable and healthier working environment. Matt splits his time between the States and the UK and has worked on productions such as, ‘Titanic’, ‘Memoirs of a Geisha’, ‘Fantastic Beats and Where to Find Them’ and ‘Dumbo’ to name a few.
