Laurie, you are so much the glue that holds our media community together, with opportunities and information - and we’re so lucky!  Thanks for continuing with the newsletter’s publication!

​The most important thing I've learned about being a filmmaker in Sacramento is that the CFAA has your back. I'm just getting started with my journey, but at every turn, CFAA has been there with information, connections, and most importantly, encouragement.  ​
I highly recommend you join so you don't get left behind. Thanks, CFAA!

CFAA FILM TALK
with Matt Salvo,
owner Salvo Image, LLC

"Making Your Passion Your Business"

Like many local creatives, Matt Salvo did what he could do to maintain his passion for photography while working a day job. Then one day that all changed, and he went from being the employee to being the employer. He hasn't looked back since, even when times were really tough... and now his business is booming while his reputation grows! Join us for this webcast and learn about his journey, what he's looking for in the future, and how to maximize your own potential.

BIO:
Matt Salvo has been interested in photography and film since age 7. His first after school program was at Roseville Public Access at age 15 where he learned editing. With a strong focus in psychology in college, Matt landed his first big job at age 21 at a local ad agency crafting international ad campaigns. After that he went to work shooting for a publication and television show both named California Bountiful where he found his love of agriculture and learned valuable interpersonal and business skills. During that career he started making short films as a hobby during his down time and gained local and international recognition for his HBOs Project Greenlight submission. With that he decided to quit the day job and start Salvo Image LLC. When Matt isn’t working, he’s cooking and spending time with his talented daughter Arianna.
