The story
Matt Meese is a co-founder of JK! Studios, an original Studio C cast member, and — alongside Jared Shores — the co-creator of Studio C itself, which spun out of Divine Comedy, the BYU student sketch group Matt helped run. If you've spent any time on YouTube and ever quoted a clean-comedy sketch back at someone, there is a non-zero chance Matt was in it, wrote it, or co-built the show that produced it.
He's the cast member who can commit so completely to a premise that you forget the camera is there, and then break frame at the exact moment that makes the whole take work. Studio C ran for nine seasons under his watch, drew close to 2 billion views, and built the audience that made JK! Studios possible.
Behind the scenes
Matt is reliable, prepared, and almost certainly funnier than you remember. Quietly the studio's secret weapon. Loudly the studio's loudest weapon when needed.
Favorite sketch
"The one where the premise is dumb and the commitment is total."
