The Nettford Chronicles
One Story at a Time
This series will tell the story of a magnificent family mansion in the heart of Cheyenne, Wyoming and the lives of those who've passed through its grande entry since it was built in 1911.
But that was then, this is now--and The Nettford is in dire need of upgrades and repair. Follow Matt Hanger, whose great grandparents purchased the building over a hundred years ago, as he and his restoration crew fight to save his family's legacy and restore The Nettford to her original glory.
Matt Hanger, Producer "Adjacent"...I was the General Manager of Spiderwood Studios in Texas for nearly five years. During that time I crossed paths with many creatives and it changed the way I think...all of my past and current life experiences are obviously hit tv shows! Okay, maybe a little too ambitious but when I share my story around The Nettford the response is always the same--You gotta do something with that!
What the show would be? A fixer-upper with a tremendous amount of heart and a strong focus on community engagement thrown in. Restoring our family name in the community is a priority of mine while highlighting the amazing attributes Cheyenne has to offer along the way. The show would not be focused on the "reveal" at the end of the episode or season, but focused on the journey and the love it's going to take to bring this building back to its former glory. That gives us so much more opportunity to expand the show with different storylines. Their are many stories to be told, not just in The Nettford, but around as well.
MatadorRED
While at Spiderwood Studios I created my own production company, MatadorRED. Below are a few snippets from my latest completed project, Eat Drink and Be Meri! produced with colleague Jason Russel Waller. This delightful cooking show features my very charming sister Meri and my devastatingly handsome nephew Walker. I love nothing more than sitting at the kitchen counter and watching those two interact. So we decided to capture some of their magic. Meri and Walker genuinely have fun together. She's teaching him how to cook his favorite dishes as he sets out on his own.

With a production background and an understanding of how television series' are produced, I have naturally formulated some of my own ideas about The Nettford Chronicles. However, I am open to collaborating with others' ideas and talents in order to unfold and present this story in the most effective way possible.
