ABOUT ME

Hey! I’m Sam, a Sydney-based colourist. I grade commercials, music videos and narrative shorts, and teach DaVinci Resolve on the side.

On every project I grade, I aim for a naturalistic, beautiful image, using advanced film emulation and photometric techniques to bring out the best in every frame.

​

When I was 9 my parents sold the house to take my sister Caitlin and I around Australia in a caravan for a year. I picked up mum’s video camera and started shooting random little short films with Caitlin, and I haven’t stopped since. I’ve directed my own award-winning shorts, worked full time as a senior video editor and colourist, and was DP on all of my partner Danni’s films.

 

I've also had the pleasure of working with brands like Commbank, UNSW, Vacheron Constantin and Kuhn Rikon.
