Film Inquiry review
SKY MELT is a small production company formed in 2014 to house our passion projects.
After working in LA for a few years we (Matthew Wade & Sara Lynch) moved back home to make our feature film debut, How the Sky Will Melt, in late 2014. We created Sky Melt as the banner under which we would self-distributed the film on VOD, to festivals, and eventually licensed while continuing to create new work.
Sky Melt’s films have been covered in Filmmaker Magazine, Film Threat, Moviemaker Magazine, Deadline, iOnCinema, NoBudge, Cartoon Brew, Hammer to Nail, In Creative Company, The Journal of Religion & Film, Horror Buzz, Brooklyn Magazine, and more.

WRITER DIRECTOR COMPOSER
Matthew is a visual artist who cares little for the sensibilities of the masses. When he’s not writing or directing, you might find him animating or drawing his cat. He’s also a damn good ramen chef.

PRODUCER ACTRESS ART DIRECTOR
You can see Sara in reruns of stuff your parents watch on TV. After leaving LA she made the choice to only focus on producing personal content and character acting (choosing to sling cocktails in order to avoid having to audition for bank commercials).
