Sheen Yap

Artist Bio

Before Sheen started bringing characters to life with her voice, she spent 16 years helping create entire worlds on screen.

Born in Singapore and raised internationally, Sheen has lived and worked across Singapore, the UK, Spain and Canada, collecting accents, experiences and stories along the way. Her first career took her deep into the world of Visual Effects, including a stint as a young “Padawan” at Industrial Light & Magic before going on to work as a VFX Supervisor on films including Captain America: Brave New World, The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes, Renfield and Slumberland.

After years spent behind the scenes, Sheen decided it was time to step in front of the camera and behind the mic herself. Following intensive training in Singapore, New York and London, she made the leap into acting and voice work in 2026, most recently completing a Diploma in Acting with Actors Studio.

Her years in film have given Sheen a unique understanding of storytelling, character and the creative process, while her international upbringing brings another layer to her work as a performer.

And when she’s not acting…There’s a good chance she’s upside down. Sheen is a keen flying trapeze artist and can occasionally be found teaching Aerial Yoga, Hammock and Trapeze. So whether she’s stepping into a new character or flying through the air above one, Sheen isn’t particularly interested in keeping both feet on the ground.
