About Matthew Selznick

As someone who makes his living producing, creating and release releasing transmedia content for major motion pictures, small business, independent creators and myself, I’ve interacted with clients, colleagues, entrepreneurs, "cewebrities" and fans online and off since 1998. In that time, the way we treat activities and behavior in the "real world" and on the Internet has merged until the two ... are practically intermingled. In this conversation age, the standard of behavior online and off must both follow the same standard. We must always be human.

That's the approach I apply. The Matthew Wayne Selznick you encounter on this site, in e-mail, on a social network or in an instant message is the same person you’ll encounter should we have the good fortune to meet in person. I treat the client I only know through e-mail, social networks or a Google Plus hangout as if they were a customer I was serving in a brick and mortar store.

Through MWS Media or working for you on contract or full-time basis, remotely or on-site, I bring to the task a quarter century of experience in producing DIY, independent creative endeavors and fifteen years experience in online content creation, audience building and personal branding.

In addition to the wide range of services provided through MWS Media, I am available to speak at your event on online marketing, personal branding, storyworlds and story franchise creation, transmedia, podcasting, and being human online and off. View More
