Peter Young
Hey, I’m Peter. I’m a Belfast-based actor and filmmaker, and I have a passion for cinema and television. I love to immerse myself in a role and portray complex characters. I always knew acting was something I wanted to pursue but I never thought I could until recently. Now I’ve spent the past few years gaining a wealth of experience in acting for screen, and I’m confident in my ability to walk on set and give my best performance. I love what I do and I hope my talent as an actor continues to grow with my career.

Skills
I have a BA in Film Studies with Queen's and I'm an emerging director in the NI film and television industry. This is something that both informs and is informed by my acting profession, and experience in one tends to aid the other.
I also have further education in IT, I can swim and I can drive.
