THE HISTORY OF SNERTS

Matt Coneys is an original member of the Snerts comedy troupe founded in 1996. He has served as head writer and sole director since inception of the company, and boasts a Quarterfinal prize in the International Screen Writing Awards.

With his love of making movies across all genres, Matt is constantly striving to expand the Snerts Entertainment brand. As the company grows to incorporate production, marketing, and distribution Matt plans to be at the forefront of each endeavor.

Adam Contini has been an assistant editor covering television and film for over three years.  Adam’s television credits include ‘Paula's Home Cooking’ for the Food Network, ‘Sharp Talk’ featuring The Reverend Al Sharpton for the TVOne Network, ‘The Chappelle Show’ for Comedy Central, and ‘Major League Gaming’ for USA. 

Adam’s film work includes “The Night of the White Pants,” “Coma,” “Soul Masters,” and comedian Michael Ian Black's directorial debut “The Pleasure Of Your Company.” 

A Snerts co-founder, Chris Salierno has primarily served as an actor and writer with the group.  When Snerts initially formed, Matt and Chris co-wrote the majority of the material as they share the same twisted sense of humor.

Chris has also served as lead actor in most of Snerts Entertainment’s early work.  His quick wit, gift of improvisation, and comfortability with making an ass of himself quickly made him the number one choice for Snerts’ on-screen talent.

A founding member of Snerts; Daniel has appeared in several Snerts projects. More recently he has moved behind the camera helping with casting calls, sound engineering, lighting and even some stunt work.

Daniel is a graduate of Hofstra University with a degree in Computer Information Systems. During his off time he works at ZStrata, a technology firm he helped start several years ago, and also helps administer the Snerts Entertainment Website.

In the meantime he is looking forward to working on future Snerts projects, such as the documentary “Marbles: How a Boy Became a Man; then a Woman” and hopes to find some time to delve into writing.

Amy is the wife of co-founder and Director, Matt Coneys. They met in 1997 as freshman at Ithaca College. While slightly put-off by Matt's "Newborn Evil in a Jar," she quickly realized he was the love of her life. Having a profound love of movies herself, and giving Matt a good run for his money on movie trivia, it is easy to see why they are the perfect couple!

Amy currently works for Integro Insurance Brokers in the Human Resources Department. During her free time, she supports Snerts Entertainment by coordinating their public relations and organizing all logistics for filming. Amy is thrilled that Matt has finally been able to make his dream a reality, and she looks forward to sharing this next step in their lives together.
