Mathias K. Tom Yew is a production management and design specialist and a graduate of Humber College’s Film and Television Production program. After finding his passion for film in high school, Mathias worked his way through various roles before discovering his strengths in the production and art departments. While at Humber, he’s been involved in a number of projects, and he’s always ecstatic to throw himself into each one. He has an extensive list of credits in the art department and is always willing to go the extra mile. Previously, he’s been a production designer, an art director, a costume designer, a 1st assistant art, and an art PA on various Humber short films. He also has a strong list of management positions under his belt. Most recently, he produced two PSAs for Canadian organizations. He’s also been the production manager on a Humber Capstone film, and produced a short Humber documentary in his second year.

He’s always had a passion for visuals and aesthetics, and is particularly interested in special effects makeup and practical effects. After six years of keeping makeup a hobby, Mathias took the leap and began pursuing SPFX makeup professionally. As a self-taught artist, Mathias’ passion for SPFX is visible from miles away-- he’s always happy to get his hands dirty, or bloody. Moving forward, Mathias intends on pursuing leadership roles in art, as well as improving his creative and design skills. He’s also looking to further his skills in special effects makeup and practical effects, as it’s been a longstanding passion of his. Alongside this, he is working on his abilities in production management and producing for future projects and his career in the industry.
