Summary

Matt Yocum was the guest lecturer. Matt’s main point of discussion was how to make it in LA. What type of work did he do and do in LA? What was it like to work on a significant Emmy-winning show, The Last of Us? We also talked about equipment and setups that work for him at home and at his studios. This was super enlightening and entertaining. We had an awesome turnout for this meeting, with many college students in attendance.
