Matthew Brezina's journey into the world of performance capture and video game production is anything but conventional. Growing up on a horse farm in a small Indiana town, he initially pursued a career in politics and government. However, a lack of fulfillment led him to a new passion—acting. Inspired by the idea of embodying his childhood hero, Batman, Matthew dove into theater and martial arts during college, which later transitioned into a focus on film and television. His love for video games, cultivated during his childhood in the woods, eventually steered him toward the burgeoning world of performance capture, where he saw the potential to blend his love for storytelling and video games into a unique career path.

Upon moving to Los Angeles, Matthew quickly realized the challenges of the entertainment industry. Despite the hardships, including burnout from background work and the realization that not every project is driven by passion, he found his way into the world of performance capture. This pivot was sparked by his desire to merge his knowledge of film with his love for video games, leading him to the doors of Rouge MoCap, where he took on a producer role despite his initial reluctance. Matthew's willingness to embrace this new world, coupled with his determination to learn and grow, allowed him to thrive in the high-pressure environment of performance capture, where he now contributes to some of the industry's most complex projects.
