Matthew Mascheri
Content Creator | Tech Innovator
Passionate content creator, project manager and technologist with 25+ years of experience turning complex ideas into engaging and memorable digital experiences.
I’ve created content and managed the world’s first digital planetarium, grew my own consulting business working on immersive productions worldwide, led technology for an exhibit house, and co-founded an interactive signage software company.
Using emerging tech I educate, inform, and entertain, and am always looking for new ways to push the boundaries of storytelling.

Fulldome Training
Not only did Matt help us develop a streamlined plan for how to develop and produce full dome content, he helped me understand the dome medium in a way that I didn’t before.
During his week here, I learned the process from start to finish: from animation, to rendering with a node network, to encoding videos for our particular system.

Planetarium Content
SpacePark360 is a lot of fun, and a great way to make astronomy fun and exciting. Children especially love this show. Imagine if your own introduction to astronomy had been a roller coaster on the surface of Mars, that is what we see when children come back again and again for this wonderful program.

Dome Theater Vendor Feedback
Matt is one of the most creative people I know. When we first delivered an interactive full dome system he produced a show that astounded me and still stands out as the pinnacle of its kind. I always look forward to seeing what he is going to come up with next.
