Matthew Taylor Ruggieri’s work lives at the intersection of music, story and human connection. He’s drawn to the moments behind the spotlight - those unscripted beats where the light falls softer and reveals the person behind the performance.

At the age of 17, Matt joined Warner Records as their first in-house video producer, creating original content from concept to completion. After graduating from USC’s School of Cinematic Arts, he went on to produce documentaries, concert films, press junkets and branded content with Smokey Robinson, Michael Bublé, Andrea Bocelli, Idina Menzel, LeAnn Rimes, Disney, Spotify, Rock the Vote and Universal Music Group, among others.

His work - including the concert documentary Jack’s Mannequin: Live from The El Rey Theatre - blends heart and craft to capture the soul of creativity. Matt’s focus remains simple: tell stories that feel real, human and full of life.

Matt is also the co-founder of award-winning skincare and fragrance brand, Onekind.
