Started watching him at 15 as an inspiration, now watching him at 22 as someone evolving, raw, relatable. His work has spoken to me in every phase of my life
Same
sam i have seen you from when i was 14 year old now im 22 blessed so follow you as a mentor love to see you grow and thanks making as all grow
im 14 rn lol
2016 seems like yesterday man
same!! love his work.
"Fulfillment often lies in the process rather than the outcome" , this one hit home
This is great! I am surprised Sam didn't include storytelling. His storytelling has grown SO MUCH over these last few years. He has always been amazing at capturing beautiful moments, but his latest videos aren't just moments; they are beautiful stories with a wonderful story arc attached. I love this!
Wake up guys Sam uploaded new video.
Wake *
@@itshakimjr thanks 👍
yes sir!!!!
Wait is over…
2 Kolder videos within 2 weeks? Yes please.
YES. PLEASE.
Damn you just popped up after so long! Started watching your videos when I was 16, I am 26 now! I felt this video to the core! You changed my life, Thanks Sam!
I feel so good just by seeing sam talk while sitting on these amazing spots. Thanks for this video. Time to take notes.
Legend is back. Stronger, happier and still true to himself. Good to see You again Sam. Keep the great editing and visual storytelling spinning the way You like it. Those who understand will always appreciate. Those who don't get will never understand. And now... Shall we keep on pressing that replay button again and again and again and again...
Honestly you were like an artistic god to me back in the day. I used to live and breath making films like you, Jay Alvarez (lol now), Brynn North and Rory Kramer. It’s crazy hearing almost a decade later you were experiencing a lot of the same feelings I was.
As you say I used to get really stressed about my projects and you (and other major creators in this space) made it look SO easy. I had zero clue so many of the same things I was thinking and feeling you were too despite the fact that I thought your work was literally flawless. I genuinely thought you and other big creators just had some magical talent where this stuff always worked out for you and it was never hard. This was also back when influencer culture was SO strong and young people like me couldn’t see past it.
Hearing about your real experience really re-contextualizes a lot of my journey with filmmaking back then.
Glad you’re doing well and keeping up the great work.
omg i have no words. I just discovered your channel and your editing is INSANE!!!!!!!!!!!!!
it's a good day when i see Sam uploaded a new video!
I'm so glad I found you when I found you, because I've seen you transform so much and I'm even more glad that you're finally posting consistently!
This is valuable not only for filmmaking but for any type of research and creative work. Enjoying the process is much more rewarding than just focusing on the final results. 🌱
A few years ago Sam uploaded a video and I couldn't watch it because I was on a tiny remote island in the Philippines during a thunderstorm in a bamboo hut with limited reception. Coming from a small farm town in New Zealand my life was so dramatically impacted by the visuals of the world you explored and showcased. Thanks for everything you do, and create. Incredible as always and forever evolving!
My favorite thing to watch is how artists evolve over time. Sam, thank you for the BTS on this one! It’s awesome to watch your style evolve, your goals change and how you’ve been able to take the original feels your videos delivered and make each new one even more meaningful. Cant wait to watch the first series directed by ya 😉
I've watched your ART since I was 15 now I am 24 much has changed & still you are one of my masters. I am now living my life at full speed with the love of making films. You Sparked Creative Revolutions across the world.
you have been the inspiration for me to start my creative journey ❤ thank you
Great tips! I’ve been trying to spend more time on pre-production recently and it definitely makes a huge difference! It’s a time commitment upfront but worth it!
Man I first saw your videos in 2016 when I was 16 learning to edit. I remember you being a huge inspiration back than and fast forward now im 23 and Ive made Videography/Video Editing a full-time career working for a performer filming his shows nightly and traveling to amazing gigs like the Warriors NBA game, and Hawaii. I honestly don't know if this would be my career right now if it wasn't for seeing you and other creators as a 16 year old kid. Its fun to see your insights growth in production and relatability when it comes to creative challenges.
Great tips! I think Sams videos are a great way to showcase growth, change and reflection. I for one remember watching them years ago and being in a completely different place and chasing different goals, now having grown and improved in many aspects I also am excited to see how Sam and other creators grow, change and revolutionize their way of making videos. Change is important and necessary!
Happy to see you back!
You’re the reason I started to make videos and got into editing. I hope you know how much impact you’ve had on so many people!
when kold uploads, I watch. simple
So helpful and inspiring Sam. I am a Kiwi photographer and videographer based in Hamburg - learning from your 16-year journey has helped me reflect and realise some things about my own journey. Thank you! 😊
you are such an inspiration sam!!
After 9 years miss this video like this !!! Your my inspiration bro ☝️
Sam you've been one of my biggest inspirations and I love to see that you are feeling better :)
More than just a BTS, it's really good life advice you are sharing with us! I love this style of video, it seems like you had a lot of fun making it and it feels very genuine!
Amazing work Sam and Musti! ✨👏
Off to see ODESZA tonight here in Boulder thanks to you, Sam! You gave visual life to their music in the best way possible! Keep it up amigo!! 🤘🏻♥️
Thank you so much Sam! You are one of my biggest, if not the biggest, inspiration for me and I love to see how your style develops and I hope that I get to meet you in person someday :)
Been following since hey Tim when I was a teen. Been great to see you grow iver the years
Sam continually evolves and never disappoints. Sometimes, true growth is found in slowing down and reconnecting with one's roots. 🌱
always my favorite uploader
Really love your new style of framing/ producing. Cannot wait to see other insights of your evolution !
PS : Musti has landed the best job on earth
Kold has been an inspiration in life always, he is the one who made me realise that `Delivering a feeling’ is the actual goal I want to chase with my work :)) Forever grateful ❤️
Oh my God yes please Sam upload more often😭😭😭
What a masterpiece... you guy are insane :D I love you
Welcome back SAM 😉 for me as an older filmmaker it is always a pleasure and inspiration to watch your amazing videos 💪🏼 #filmmakingismypassion best cinematic greetings from an older german UA-cam filmmaker
Lovely informative video, Sam. You're the one who exposed me initially to the magic of storytelling+filmmaking, and I am definitely gonna jump into it soon. 🙌
Every frame is an inspiration for me sam.
You’re always an inspiration Sam! Great video 🙏
Always worth it. Thank you for this Sam
Great video Sam, another extremely well put together piece that was equally informational as it was visually stimulating and inspiring. Hope to see more soon
Kold's storytelling is just on a different level ❤🎞
The LEGEND is Back!
What a beautiful video, Came to me at the right time of my life when I just started a new journey as a fashion filmmaker, and after doing some projects, I am now looking for change, A change in execution or to explore something more in fashion and I was confused to try. But this video has given me the clarity to try and collaborate with new people,
Thanks, Sam Wish we can work together in the future.
Honestly I’m really enjoying the new style A LOT! I can feel a feature length film on the way 🔥🔥🔥
From harsh teal and orange to comfy 2383, you are really grown as a creator Sam!
I don't know why but if Sam is uploading any video it feels like it's not enough, thanks Sam for keeping me motivated.
Great video. I feel great when I see your work Sam. It keeps me motivated.
Was really fun being on this journey together! Excited for more brother 🤝🏽
babe wake up kold uploaded
Cringe 😐
The skeleton had my dying haha! I'm grateful to be in your community bro and that I get to learn from the master!
I'm in this position where I feel not good as an artist, video maker. I just started a project about sharing people stories and you know how much time, effort it takes you to turn your idea a reality and then you found out no one cares. It's devastating, but you know u have to keep swimming. So I'm writing this because you are my inspiration and when I feel low I always go to your channel to find out that what I'm doing is not useless.
Thanks Kold, you are my hero.
Just keep on swimming! Life is happening for you, not to you
Love the message here and where you’ve taken your work and life 🔥
Nice video,Sam! Not only good advice for content creators but also useful for everybody!
so good! thank you for the advice! (especially the deadlines one). I'm not a creator, Im doing something completely different. 🤣 But I've been watching you since I was young and your videos always push me to grow and be more creative. ALSO the fonts in this video!
2 videos back to back, love this shit!
happy to see you back kolddddddd
I love Music Bed. I use it all the time :) Also, super informative and amazing video as always, brother!
It is wonderful seeing you back at it again Sam!!!
Very good tips... Slowly but surely he's back people
thank you sam for sharing your insights & journey!
Growth in every aspect 🤝🏽
this should be taught in film school, another banger Sam!
Kold world, we need the editing classes my bru.. Love from South Africa
Wonderful video that I didn't expect, but it was very inspiring !
Thank you Sam :)
King is baaaaaaack! ❤
wakeeeeeeeeeee up baby Sam just uploaded
Started your course, and I'm learning a lot. Thanks Sam
What a video of story and workflow - thank you!
Needed this right now.. thank you for the fresh dos of perspective
I feel like you're able to do better pre production, planning and all that because you've learnt from experience so, I guess my takeway from all this is to just keep going and learning more
It's amazing to see how this man always creates his own niche 🙇🏻♂️
Wow two videos in such a short period of time, very cool!
Amazing video, Sam! Thank you for endless inspiration 🤙
2 videos in less than a month? I don't know what is happening but I'm liking it.
I love your calm vibe bro
enjoy the process - the most important thing
King of creators.❤
HAPPY TO SEE YOU BACK AT FULL ENERGY.
Awesome. I would wait for the next one.
im 14 seconds in and I have to comment that its so good, now I'll watch the rest!
this is the compressed bible of cinematography in 9mins. this is literally all that’s crucial to becoming a successful video creator
Wise words ! Thanks for always bringing so inspiring
maybe the video of your channel with the most value for a filmmaker. Thanks !
the importance of collaboration: 100% yes. BUT, I feel so alone in this content world as a woman. I´ve been trying to build my connections with other creators around me but it feels like their perception is about us being rivals when actually we are stronger together as creators and can uplift eachother. I´m still waiting for my time to find those creators and collaborate on stories I so badly want to tell, but I can´t do it on my own. I admire you got this far in the content world, I wish I worked harder to build my own community of creators that I can rely on and who in return can rely on me.
Babe new sam kolder video came out, time to reschedule the therapy session 🥰
Sooo good thank you for the push, sincerely
I needed to see this right now 😄 great tips !
You never will find happyness because are adictic to the adrenalin and the news experiences. There are a moment that you find that all are same every bucle rutin. Congratulation for your motivation and to do your dream true. I recomend you a new chalenge. To do a chain of favors in the worl. Help 3 people that they have to do de same and record the chain of favors from the begin till ... the happynes are in ti share energy and fill the people around you given you love and happys. You have the powerd. You have the big responsability. Congratulation 🙏💪❤️ Good luck
My man is back
Alright, let's see this video 🙌🏻🔥🙌🏻
Liked it before I watch this as always ! Peace ✌️
continue to believe in yourself
I think sam is now exploring more static shots which convey his Stories much deeply than those crazy moving shots which made him popular. But I like the new version of his work more because it's more deeper
Great video Sam! Thanks for sharing!
Mesheck from South Africa you inspire me bro!!!!!
Hey Sam, you inspired me. Thanks so much.
