David Kamatoy
David Kamatoy is a juggler figuratively and literally. Working predominantly in the fields of entertainment and entrepreneurship. Kamatoy Media Group is about blending those two worlds.
As an entrepreneur, David spent more than a decade working with start-up and emerging companies as a consultant, coach, speaker, investor relations director and executive. Bringing that experience into the media production world is why fellow entrepreneurs feel comfortable working with David in communicating the vision and intent of their project.
As an entertainer, David is known predominantly as a juggler-comedian. Having performed across the country, mainly on the West Coast, he constantly is recognized as “that juggling guy.” It has happened in the boardroom, on the set and even in prison (he was visiting). Additionally he is a professional pianist, tenor, actor, and musical director.
As a producer, David is known for Jump Television Studio's Big Biz Show, Sully’s Biz Brew, The Capitalist and America Trends. He is currently launching a series of new TV shows created in San Diego and available for syndication including his own “DavidKamatoy.com Show” based on his original Radio Show and Blog.
He is the co-founder of Jugglemail.com an email marketing and CRM platform that helps entrepreneurs juggle and manage multiple projects and teams.
David Kamatoy's vision is to bridge the gap between traditional media and new media. Taking advantage of the lack of traditional production values in new media is a limited opportunity. KMG is looking to work with a handful of clients on business and content development in tandem with building their own projects.

Stephen Prendergast
Stephen Prendergast is the lead writer and editor for Kamatoy Media Group. An experienced educator with over two decades of experience teaching English up to and including community and technical college level, he brings a well-trained eye to all of the team’s project writing needs.
As an educator, Stephen began his career with a U.S. Navy college education program teaching writing and rhetoric skills to crew members stationed aboard local ships. He moved on to work in private, public, and currently charter schools, where he taught history in addition to English Language Arts. During this period he partnered with regional, state and national education organizations to plan and develop workshops for teachers in both English and Social Studies.
During a break from education, Stephen worked as a freelance writer to cover local events, sports and business projects. A highlight during this time was covering multiple championship seasons by the San Diego Sockers for an online soccer magazine. He has since returned to the classroom, but continues to produce the majority of Kamatoy Media Group’s written communications. With KMG, he has written business proposals, press releases, blog and media posts, and other related communications.
After beginning a career in social work with the elderly, Steven David Elliot became interested in marketing after learning sales technique from a cousin. Remembering what his elderly clients had often said to him while in social work about regrets for things they had not done, Elliot decided to follow a dream and open up a bookstore. Eventually he had four successful bookstores, two each in North Carolina and Miami, Florida, which he ran for 15 years. Even in an era of growing online book sales, Elliot’s stores thrived because of his emphasis on networking.
Elliot goes on in the interview to explain how this networking event then grew into what today is the Rockstar Connect series of networking events. His theory, which he has shown to be quite successful, is that if people did a consistent networking event every month, they would never have to do any other form of prospecting. This is the power behind Rockstar Connect events which focus around an event host who is featured through social media pushes. By building an event designed to provide attendees with what they need to be successful, the host earns their gratitude and their connections. Many times a person who was never at the event is inspired by an attendee to connect and do business with the host.

“Filming VR in the dark usually is very costly,” explained Hou, who is a Co-Founder and Creative Director for production studio CreatorUp. “We had to be very creative on camera placement and remote monitoring to make the camera angles feel like an audience so viewers can feel like they are really there.”
