Forty<br />

years of doing what we love <strong>to</strong> <strong>to</strong> do — it it doesn’t get much<br />

better than that. For me it all started when my Dad used <strong>to</strong> <strong>to</strong> drag me around<br />

<strong>the</strong> studios <strong>here</strong> in Hollywood when I was only eight or nine years old. I was<br />

infatuated with <strong>the</strong> facades on <strong>the</strong> back lots and all <strong>the</strong> gear, and people involved<br />

with <strong>the</strong> process. Today I I am still enamored by <strong>the</strong> art of imaging and so proud<br />

<strong>to</strong> be a a part of this industry. Much has changed in <strong>the</strong> forty years since Mat<strong>the</strong>ws<br />

was born in in a a Hollywood garage <strong>to</strong> what it has become <strong>to</strong>day a designer,<br />

innova<strong>to</strong>r and manufacturer of very high quality Lighting Accessories, Camera Accessories<br />

and Grip <strong>Equipment</strong>.<br />

From <strong>the</strong> back lots of Hollywood <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> streets and stages in South America and<br />

Mexico, all <strong>the</strong> way <strong>to</strong> Europe, Asia and <strong>the</strong> Pacific Rim; Mat<strong>the</strong>ws now exports<br />

its its products <strong>to</strong> over seventy different countries. We are still very passionate<br />

about what we do and so grateful <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> many employees who have helped us in<br />

our growth, continually raising <strong>the</strong> bar of excellence in quality, reliability and<br />

service for that which we offer. We have earned many awards and accolades over <strong>the</strong><br />

years, but <strong>the</strong> most rewarding accomplishment has been <strong>the</strong> number of relationships<br />

we have formed and <strong>the</strong> many friendships that have endured <strong>the</strong> test of time.<br />

As we look <strong>to</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>the</strong> future we see many more exciting opportunities for <strong>the</strong> art of film,<br />

digital and television production. And as <strong>the</strong> world population and <strong>view</strong>ing audience<br />

expands we look forward <strong>to</strong> making many new friends in <strong>the</strong> years <strong>to</strong> come. We invite<br />

you <strong>to</strong> use this new catalog as your reference <strong>to</strong>ol, and don’t hesitate <strong>to</strong> call upon us<br />

w<strong>here</strong> you feel we can be of assistance.<br />

We recognize that you have choices — we thank you for choosing Mat<strong>the</strong>ws.<br />

Thanks Dad.<br />

Sincerely,<br />

Ed
