One of Matthew's biggest challenges, which started in 2003, is creating the various character prosthetics and masks for the hit Broadway show Wicked . Balancing his film and TV projects, Matthew & his lab W.M. Creations, Inc. continues his work for the show's Broadway, U.S. tours and worldwide productions. After 42 years as a master of make-up effects, the artist moved to Texas and set up a studio for his loyal clients, including stars Robert DeNiro, Glenn Close and Tracey Ullman.

Terry is a member of the Motion Picture Academy, the Television Academy and on a committee to help develop exhibits for the Motion Picture Academy Museum.
After his training at the San Francisco Opera Wig and Make-Up Department and South Carolina's Spoleto Festival apprenticeship, he was hired by Theatrical Hairgoods Company to travel to regional opera and theater companies to run their hair and make-up departments for more than ten years.
