About Peter J Matthews

I'm a classically trained English actor and voice artist. I'm passionate about creating characters, bringing stories to life and always producing clear, engaging, high quality work. As a narrator I'm pretty versatile, with a warm yet informative soft RP accent, that I can easily switch up to the clipped tones of 1940's BBC or soften to a more modern neutral sound. I love working in all areas of voiceover, but as dad of two, I particularly enjoy throwing myself into children's stories, animations and anything that will make kids laugh!I graduated from the Webber Douglas Academy of Dramatic Art in London, having completed their three year diploma and subsequently appeared in numerous stage productions, as well as working in TV, Radio and short films. In 2021 I switched my main focus to voiceover work, investing in a home studio and training with several leading narrators, voice artists and studios.I love inventing character voices. Everything from mad scientists and posh twits to hideous monsters and evil villains! I also have a good ear for accents, covering nearly all regional British dialects as well as solid American, Australian, and other international accents.
