Matthew Jones

As an aspiring young actor I started performing with my first role as, the "Woodcutter" In Puss in Boots.
A children's production of the classic fairytale. The success of this role led me to pursue many other
community and civic theater roles. I soon landed in a semi-professional troupe called JLO West, a Light
Opera group performing a series of Broadway Musicals and Drama's in the regional area. I also pursued
acting at my local high school. This elevated me to from class clown to leading man in most every
production possible. Even roles I did not land afforded me the challenge of supporting roles as the "Radio
Voice" in the suspense play, The Bad Seed. Officially this was my first Voiceover job. I later was asked to
add my voice talents to many side jobs, which led me to pursue a bit of training and demo work for my
Professional Reel.
I have enjoyed working in the professional entertainment world all of my life. I am known as a proficient;
Producer, director, designer and technical director over many years and achieving hundreds of successful
productions and special events. I am accomplished in all aspects of pre-production, through project and
post production.

 Ausbildung

Such a Voice presented a seminar about voiceovers and I was hooked. Always told I could do Voice work but never did. Now I do! Demo reels and several projects later I am on the move.

Introduction and the following representation
I was interested in an introductory presentation for those who might be interested in voice-over
work. I attended this presentation which resulted in much interest in me as a voice talent. I took training
