Course: BA (Hons) Film Production
Graduated: 2022
Since graduating, Elijah has continued to work as a sound designer and audio engineer working on a variety of projects. This included the recently released short documentary Beguildy, on which he was sound designer. The crew was made up of friends he graduated with at AUB, giving him the chance to further collaborations with alumni.
One of Elijah's greatest experiences after graduation has been working as an audio engineer in the video games industry, as part of the team at PitStop Productions. The first game he was lucky enough to work on was the critically acclaimed Baldur’s Gate 3, in which he was responsible for setting up actors' microphones and recording their performances. Most of these performances were motion-captured, which opened up wonderful collaborations. Elijah had the chance to work with voice directors, who focused on the vocal performance from the actor; performance directors who helped the actors actualise the movement and physicality of their character, and motion capture engineers who tracked all the motion data, solving technical issues as soon as they arise, so as to not inhibit the actors who brought the characters to life.
Elijah aims to continue working with collaborative, driven creatives like the team at PitStop Productions, who all experienced their hard work resonating with so many people – a powerful experience and achievement he wishes to pursue further.
