My name is Matt Disbro, I’m the Founder of Reel Good Impressions, LLC. The reason I started this company is simple. I am passionate about helping businesses communicate effectively to their target market through the production of high quality B2B & B2C video content.
After 10+ years of experience in the world of video production, I’ve realized that my most fulfilling work comes when creating video content for growing companies who are excited about stepping up their online media efforts.
Why is this work is so fulfilling? I get to witness the anticipation and satisfaction of my client as they see a video project grow from an initial conversation into a full fledged final product—a video product that actively assists my client in achieving new heights by engaging their target market with repeatable, really good impressions!
professional background & passion behind the work
I have had the privilege of working within a plethora of video production environments. Ranging dramatically in terms of key roles, scale of production, and distribution models. On larger productions, I’ve managed talented teams of 30 cast & crew as lead Producer for award winning narrative shorts. On smaller productions, I’ve fulfilled the roles of Producer, Director, Cinematographer, and Editor for promotional freelance contracts, marketing agency gigs, and award winning international broadcast television.
For an adventurous individual, “privileged” is the word that I like to use, because my work has sent me to roughly 18 different countries worldwide. I have been blessed to grow in expertise on amazing journeys filled with friendships won and memories made. All the while reaping the immense satisfaction of hard creative labor translated into engaging video content that clients have loved. I would not trade any of these experiences for the world… But alas, seasons change. My wife and I have embarked on a brand new epic adventure in June, 2021.

founding reel good impressions
Becoming a parent is a wonderful thing, but it’s undeniably a game changer. Priorities have shifted in our household. Previously, I would embrace opportunities that sent me to film in distant places on the regular. Now, whatever I do professionally, I want my world to revolve around the home life.
Reel Good Impressions is my shot at navigating this new path. Thankfully, I am certain to find equal opportunities for continued professional fulfillment, because the work that I am capable of and my creative motivations remain the same. To create engaging video content that communicates an intentional message to a desired target market! The only thing that is changing is the setting. I want to focus on relatively local opportunities.
My hope is that Reel Good Impressions will be a go-to resource for companies looking to step up their online video representation. Making available professional quality video production at a reasonable price through a highly skilled, well planned, low overhead approach.
Thank you for considering Reel Good Impressions as a partner to help your company grow.
