The setup is now used by undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in sound for picture, advanced music mixing, and immersive audio. I supported many of these courses by doing multiple "Intro to Dolby Atmos" workshops, one-on-one training sessions, and writing step-by-step guides on how to operate the Dolby Atmos System
​
My MFA final project culminated with the production of Dolby Atmos content for Music and Sound for Picture. The main focus of these works was the exploration of best practices for object-based audio mixing.
