Matt Meese (born October 10, 1983) is a sketch comedian and actor who is best known for his prominent role as actor, head writer, and co-creator of Studio C, a popular comedy show on both BYUtv and YouTube.
Meese was born in New Jersey and raised in Phoenix, Arizona, a home he was fond of, as the second of four children. After high school, Meese served as a missionary for The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints in Chicago, Illinois, after which he attended and later graduated from BYU with an undergraduate degree in Psychology. Before and after his college graduation, he worked for the Monte L. Bean Life Science Museum for a total of 5 years.
It was during his membership of BYU's on-campus sketch comedy group, Divine Comedy that Meese and other original members of Studio C first conceived the idea for the show. The show was not considered by BYUtv until Meese personally met with content director Jared Shores, his best friend, and pitched him the idea. Meese is acknowledged as one of the creators of Studio C and the show's head writer. Matt is known for many roles in his sketch comedy.
Meese's most well-known role is as Scott Sterling, an unlucky soccer and volleyball player who continually receives blows to the head and by doing so ultimately helps his team to victory. In terms of views, the Sterling series are the most successful sketches of Studio C, being the only Studio C videos to exceed 75 million views on YouTube.
As confirmed in August 2018, while Studio C had a 10th season, he and the other 9 original cast members left after the 9th season to create and star in a new production company called JK! Studios. After sharing the news, he also expressed that he would like to do future guest spots for the show when the opportunity arises.
