Since a young age, Elijah has always been interested in filmmaking and cinema. In 2018, Elijah finally started working on making his own original short films, beginning with fan-films of his favourite monster movie character, Godzilla. Following his two fan-films, he began developing entirely original short films with "The Invisible Teacher" in 2021 and "Bio Project."
In 2023, Elijah started to develop higher quality short films while still embracing the low budget feel of his productions. Entering into the Amature Video Contest at G-Fest, the world's largest kaijū convention in both 2023 and 2024 with original giant monster movies "SOS: Seek Shelter" and "Edo Kami no Gyakushu."
In the world of sequels, prequels, and remakes, I've learned that indie films provide a unique and interesting place for original narrative storytelling. I would like to continue this for generations to come!
