His contributions have received international acclaim, resulting in 14 awards for his work in the Cape Flats, despite his decision to withdraw from community engagement in the performing arts. Nic holds a degree in sectional title management from the University of Cape Town and will continue to pursue this field full-time,\u201d says Brink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-optimism\">Optimism<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>While many are saddened by his departure, there remains a sense of optimism regarding the opportunities that lie ahead. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Since 2021, Matthee has designed, directed, and managed 11 film projects, involving talented individuals and helping to secure careers in the performing arts for some participants. These projects featured historical locations and included a diverse array of participants of all ages, as well as training and workshops in stunt and martial arts, practical make-up, and special effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>READ MORE:&nbsp;<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.news24.com\/news24\/community-newspaper\/tygerburger\/touched-by-styles-new-community-film-out-20230411-2\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Touched by Style\u2019s new community film has been released<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cWe are currently engaged in a significant transition and handover process due to Matthee\u2019s extensive portfolio within the TBS programme, as Lategan will assume the project manager role. New and exciting community projects are set to commence in March 2025, including the Zombie Apocalypse Challenge aimed at school students across the Cape,\u201d says Brink.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-will-be-missed\">Will be missed<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Touched By Style project was established to provide a transformative and unique experience for talented individuals in the Cape Flats, and it has evolved into a successful programme over the past three years. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cMatthee also served as the chair of the Belhar Neighbourhood Development Forum in 2012, vice chair of the Freestyle Dance League in Mitchells Plain from 2011 till 2014, and founded the Floorkiller Hope Foundation, continuing to achieve success by winning six international dance competitions.
