MATTE Projects

Founded in 2012, we are a creative company and collective studio. We offer multidisciplinary strategic, creative, and production services for brands and artists. Our services include Strategy & Insights, Branding & Identity, Content Production, Content Management, Experiential Design & Production, Entertainment, Virtual Experiences, and Innovation. We are a film production and creative agency.

We blend strategy, creativity, and production to craft live and digital experiences that inspire and entertain audiences, bringing immersive worlds to life. This includes world building (envisioning brands as immersive worlds and covering brand strategy, design systems, content, and community engagement), creating experiential events with entertainment elements, and offering talent direct services (connecting brands with talent by managing scouting, negotiations, and logistics for collaborations). We also provide branded design, crafting visuals and narratives to elevate brand presence, and operate a content studio that produces high-quality content for various media platforms.

We work with clients across industries like Advertising Services, Media & Entertainment, Music, Fashion, Lifestyle, Hospitality, and Luxury. We also develop our own intellectual property. Our main office is in New York, with another in Mexico City.

Our purpose is to inspire and provoke origination. Our core values define how we work:

• Great, Not Good: We commit to high standards in all our work.
• Collective Responsibility and Passionate Crew: We foster a team environment where everyone shares responsibility and deeply cares about our collective work.
• Risk-Taking and Cultural Shifting: We embrace risk to drive cultural change and champion new ideas.
• Relationships Define Us: We prioritize authentic relationships built on trust and shared passion with our teammates, partners, and clients.
• A Never-Finished Evolution: We commit to continuous change, improvement, and adaptability in a dynamic environment.

We are a high-performance, high-touch creative company with 51-200 employees. While based in New York and Mexico City, job postings also mention locations like Los Angeles. Our work environment is diverse and creative, fostering a passionate crew where individuals are encouraged to actively participate.

We value Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) and integrate these principles into our operations. We celebrate diverse perspectives and experiences, ensuring equal access to opportunities for growth, advancement, and recognition. Our goal is to create an inclusive environment where all voices are heard, respected, and empowered.

For our work model, we generally require on-site presence Monday through Thursday, with remote work allowed on Fridays. We also offer a “Remote Month” perk, providing additional flexibility for employees.

We offer our employees a range of benefits and perks:

• Health and Wellness: Medical, dental, and vision coverage (with plan options), 12 weeks of paid parental leave for all caregivers, a Health Savings Account (HSA), a fully covered mental health app, and discounted services for fertility and family building.
• Time Off and Employee Perks: A comprehensive Paid Time Off (PTO) package, four full Summer Fridays, a Remote Month perk, and End of Year Recharge paid time off. After three years of employment, a Sabbatical Program is available.
• Financial Wellness: A Vanguard 401k retirement plan with a company match up to 4% of annual salary, a Flexible Spending Account (FSA) for healthcare expenses, commuter benefits, and a fully paid Citibike membership.
