Mathew Savage, Senior Audio Artist (Speech Lead), Electronic Arts
Mathew Savage is a Senior Audio Artist and Speech Lead at Electronic Arts. Born and raised in Vancouver, British Columbia, he spent most of his time outside, but thanks to an abundance of rainy days, his passion for video games grew and eventually led to a full-time career. He broke into the game industry in 2019, joining Electronic Arts to work on the NHL franchise, and has never looked back. Mathew is fascinated by the search for ways to bridge the gap between live sports broadcasts and video game commentary. He believes AI-assisted tools can help close that gap by supporting talent during recording sessions, reducing bottlenecks, and improving workflows. When it rains these days, Mathew tries to find time between family life, friends, and work to continue a seemingly endless game of Factorio because, well… The Factory Must Grow.
