New: Request a video message from Matt for your WordCamp

We’ve seen an uptick in requests for recorded video messages from Matt for WordCamps and community events. To make this easier and more consistent, we’ve created a simple request process.

Organizers can now apply for a short recorded video from Matt. These are intended as a community shoutout and may include brief comments or Q&A, depending on availability.

How it works:

• Events must be on the official WordCampWordCamp WordCamps are casual, locally-organized conferences covering everything related to WordPress. They're one of the places where the WordPress community comes together to teach one another what they’ve learned throughout the year and share the joy. Learn more. schedule and at least 8 weeks out
• Requests must come from WordCamp organizers
• We cannot accommodate every request, so priority will be given to milestone events such as first-time WordCamps, anniversaries, or significant community moments

Going forward, this option will also be included in event organizer emails so the process is clear and consistent.
