Three Decades Behind the Magic of Film and Television
About Portrait | A vintage portrait painting reimagined with myself and one of my dogs, then placed into a staged still life with another antique painting. Created with AI-assisted elements and finished in Photoshop.
I’m Tim Matney, a senior visual artist and creative lead with nearly 30 years of experience across computer games, film, television, advertising, and digital media.
My career began in computer games before transitioning into Visual Effects (digital special effects) for film and television. That work developed my eye for realism, composition, lighting, color, detail, and production problem-solving.
Over the years, I’ve worked across 3D imagery, digital environments, compositing, image cleanup, final shot finishing, artist supervision, and production support. Often acting as a visual problem-solver, taking incomplete or difficult material and turning it into something polished, believable, and ready to deliver.
Indigo M Creative brings that experience into a broader range of commercial work: brand campaigns, graphic design, custom imagery, product and portrait finishing, AI-assisted content, video, motion, and visual effects.
I bring senior visual judgment, hands-on problem-solving, and experienced creative leadership to projects that need more than a quick execution pass - working directly with clients and producers, and delivering under real production deadlines.
Based in Atlanta and available for remote projects worldwide.
