Meet Sam, the film director, photographer, camera operator, and video editor with a flair for the dramatic and a penchant for dark humor. With a Bachelor's degree in Film Directing from Escola Superior de Teatro e Cinema, Sam has honed the craft to a fine art, directing several TV commercials for Rádio Megahits and Rádio RFM—one of which even snagged a nomination for "Best TV Commercial". When Sam isn't behind the camera or in front of an editing screen making the mundane look magnificent, you might find him indulging in a bit of nature (sans snakes, of course 🐍🚫) or chasing the next adrenaline rush. And let's not forget the Photoshop wizardry—turning "meh" into "wow" is just another day at the office. Sam's dark humor and fun-loving nature make them a joy to work with, even if you need a thick skin for the jokes. Whether it's capturing the perfect shot, cutting together a compelling narrative, or simply cracking a joke, Sam brings energy, creativity, and a touch of mischief to every project.
