Elijah Simmons

I've been working in video production since 2015 and I've shot and edited projects for Adidas, Taylormade, Coldwell Banker, Slate Digital, Illumina Genetics, FoundmyFitness and more. I am passionate about seeing companies bring their visions into fruition through the use of technology and the creative process. After years of experience on-set in a variety of roles and capacities, I've found my niche behind the camera, usually in run-and-gun scenarios where I'm responsible for lighting, audio and the camera work itself.

Originally I got my start working in post-production, and my well-rounded proficiency with the Adobe Creative Cloud will make me an asset to any team. Over the last two years, popular demand led me to delve into the world of livestream production and I've been producing multi-cam shoots for local companies around San Diego.
