Film making

Bored of the generic content we’re fed on a daily basis, Sam strives for originality in a world of copycattery. If you want to be different, you’re in the right place.

Specialising in shorter films, adverts, and content video for marketing campaigns Sam’s unique approach sets him apart from the crowd by removing the boring, super slick but say-nothing style, and replacing it with imagination, humour and a creative viewpoint.

This new moving image work is informed by years of commercial photography,  a critical eye for composition, colour and narrative and content being applied to both disciplines with unwavering high standards. Whole video and film production is dealt with including editing, colour grading and an option to have your own music written.

Industry/Business

These images have appeared in brochures, portfolios and publications worldwide. Showcase what your business does best.

Education

Sam is extremely proficient at directing groups or individuals in order to achieve natural looking but striking images for your marketing.

He is used to working with design departments directly often shooting images for specific composition and purpose. Having worked with many designers he understands the importance of composition and copyspace and communication with you.

For the last four years sam has been working with the University of Chester, and also University Centre Shrewsbury. He was tasked in the beginning with creating a portfolio of images for use in print campaigns, website and of course the ultra important prospectus.

The relationship has been a success as images created appear genuine and authentic due to the models being actual students and familiar locations on campus being used as backdrop.
