Short introduction
I’m Matthew Detmer, a family man, farmer, chef, a writer, director, musician, [plus actor] working out of Upstate South Carolina. My work thrives on independent film, original music, immersive events, and hospitality — whether that’s producing a film, directing an event, or building out a full pop-up experience.
