  Computer Arts - Digital matte painting
Most matte paintings begin life as a verbal brief communicated by the film’s director: “A cold and bleak environment, not too alien in its feel” or “a historically accurate view of the Southampton Docks, circa 1912”.

  MacBook Pro 15" with "Grainy" Matte Display? - MacNN Forums
I was going to say that the matte displays simply look like crap compared to the glossy, but I was sure that I'd be crucified by the glossy-haters here -- so I refrained from mentioning that earlier.
I got the glossy screen on my new MBP even though I read some information via Google that the glossy screen wasn't that great and was, in fact, a supposedly inferior screen (matte screens are pricier to produce than the glossy was what the article said).
I've always used matte and I do photography and stuff and I heard that the colors are more true to life on a matte screen.

  The "simplest" special effect - matte-box photography!
Matte boxes in photography are devices that exploit the possibilities of making a negative by exposing its various parts at different times and under different conditions.
Matte boxes are generally used at the photography stage although a variation of the approach can be used at the printing stage.
The matte box also allows photographers to combine two or more different, unrelated, scenes together on one piece of film by using two or more masks that are complements of each other placed sequentially in front of the camera.

 14545. Matte anodizing of machined aluminium parts [Mexico]
Since I want the surface to have a matte appearance, I encounter the problem that with the anodizing process for a matte appearance, on the machined parts there appear the crystals as small shiny spots, which is undesirable.
Matte anodize can be achieved by matte etching the aluminum prior to anodize.
They become visible after the matte anodizing process where caustic soda is applied to etch the surface for a matte appearance.

 Matte Painting
These matte paintings are used to produce dazzling scenery that would otherwise not exist anywhere in the world and would be too costly, difficult, or impractical to build with sets.
Now the matte painter begins to carefully paint in the matte region which is the region that was previously fled-out on the film.
The matte painter may lightly place a little paint slightly over the edges of the matte region in order to make the painting blend more seamlessly with the film.

 Tracking a Matte in Effect*
In my matte, since it was trees, I had to make holes inside the matte where you could see through, because the creature would need to cast a shadow onto the structure behind the trees, and because there were areas in the tree where you could see through it.
We will be using this 2d tracker to track the movement of the matte object (the tree) through the scene and use that data to move the matte appropriately.
For subsequent mattes (the 'holes' in your matte), set up a tracker to track position, but instead of tracking the matte, simply import the tracking data from the main matte, and the sub-mattes will move with the larger matte.

 Matte Medium
GOLDEN Matte Medium is a pourable acrylic medium useful for extending colors for economy, increasing translucency and decreasing gloss.
If they apply a matte medium over the work and it is not to their liking because of the whiteness or opacity of the matte medium, there is little they can do to counteract it.
If a matte varnish is applied, such as GOLDEN Polymer Varnish or MSA Varnish, given they have followed all instruction on application and have applied an isolation coat, then the artist can remove the varnish and apply a satin or gloss varnish instead.
