About Matthew Heath:

Cancer threw me for a loop. But what I learned was invaluable as a producer. What that would be…July 24th, 2011: 11 AM. My niece jumped on me. There was sharp pain in my testicle. Unbearable pain. On a scale of 1-10, 10 being the most painful, my pain was 100. I took myself to the ER to get some tests done at The Hartford Hospital, where it revealed that I had testicular cancer. My first thought: After looking at your test results, we found a lump in your testicle, and we believe it’s cancerous. He said a lot more after that, none of which I heard. Only this question swirling in my mind: “Why me, God?”. I had an operation to remove my left testicle, but it spread into my Lymph Nodes. I had to have a Lymph node removal surgery, which was the hardest thing I have ever done in my life. After I was done being in the hospital, I had six weeks of chemo treatments. One of the reasons why I want to tell this story is because it taught me a valuable lesson to never give up on yourself.

Learning not to give up on myself has made me a better producer because it takes a lot to become a producer. Like my team, The Montreal Canadiens, so many people questioned where this team was going, but with a calm mindset, they built a great foundation, and that’s how I look at producing. Sometimes, people will question you on how to produce a film, but as long as you set up a good foundation, you can build a great movie. It’s great to please everyone, but sometimes, it’s not the case because you must make tough decisions that will upset some people. That is what you will get from me. I will try to please everyone, but I have the confidence to put my foot down to do what needs to be done. I learned all these great tools from getting degrees in Graphic Design, Web Design, and Film Directing, but with all those false starts, I realized that I was destined to be a Film Producer.

I didn’t always want to be a Film Producer; back in 2006, I wanted to be a Film Director. In 2007, I remembered making a Documentary Movie called “Autism,” you meant wondering why I was talking about this movie because of what my professor told me after watching the movie. She told me that she was a judge at “Doc Fest,” an event in Toronto, and she was a judge for that Film Festival. She told me that if my movie were part of the Film Festival, I would have won the best short documentary, which made me very proud. It doesn’t stop there; another thing that made me proud was winning Best Portfolio at the Art Institute of Pittsburgh, where I got my bachelor’s degree in Web Design and Interactive Media. Winning the best Portfolio is nice, but nothing compares to completing my master’s degree in film production because I’ll become the first in my family to have a master’s degree.

Getting my master’s degree is great, but sometimes, you must know when to kick back and enjoy myself in my free time. If I’m not at the movies watching over 1000 movies by now, you will catch me home watching a good old movie on any streaming service that I am in the mood for. Movies are great, but nothing beats watching a good old-fashioned hard-hitting hockey game. Where can I begin about hockey? I love everything about it; I love the moments when my heart feels like I am having a heart attack or when you scream so hard that your roommate is knocking on your door to keep it down. There is so much to talk about hockey because it is the most fantastic sport on earth, and if anyone wants to challenge me on it, I can tell you that I have named every Stanley Cup Champion since 1953. I know, that is enough about hockey; oh yeah, did I mention that I love hockey? Besides watching hockey, I love podcasts on YouTube that talk about movies, do trailer reactions, and try not to laugh at challenges. If you got this far, I am happy that you care to get to know me, and I hope that this Bio will result in me getting a phone call from you wanting to interview me for a position that you think will work with my experience.
