I would LOVE, LOVE, LOVE to work with Ski Doo snowmobiles. I’m currently in the phase of becoming a “master” at my craft and building an online presence.

[@ChaimGlass1]

I'm 17 years old and I have a strong aspiration to work with either Netflix or Warner Bros. In pursuit of this goal, I have already created several short films and am currently in the process of developing a feature film that I am eager to present to these great companies. Joining these companies would not only fulfill my passion for filmmaking but also offer me an incredible opportunity to learn and grow in the industry, surrounded by professionals who share my enthusiasm for storytelling and visual artistry. Thanks sam once again for never failing to inspire me 🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@SkyPathProductions]

Dude keep up the great work! I'm 16 and have very similar goals, keep working hard and I'm sure you will one day work with those companies.

[@rprbeck]

Go for it! Similar goals, you can get it :)

[@Mcgeee]

Ayeee this is awesome man! Loved hearing Cody's side of things too 🤘🏽

[@RobertEFuller]

Nice 👌 good advice go above and beyond 😊 I have started working with DJI filming my wildlife adventures The equipment they make is incredible I just got the Ronan 4D

[@Smamaj]

I always dreamed about working for Salomon running , and took me some time :) but finally I am making first project directly for them and super excited about it!! :) First I worked with them locally doing little even shots , slowly getting more and more traction and one day international department noticed one of my projects for norwegian market :) and this is how it went :)

[@ChristopherBalladarez]

Youre freaking story telling is like none other bro! Im so stoked for you and your future!! ily

[@andrew_serbs]

Sam blessing us with 3 videos in a month ??! Somebody wake me up !! I must be dreamin’ 😂❤

[@andrew_serbs]

Oh, and regarding of what you said at the end, DJI would be a dream for me too ❤️ always watching till the end Sam 🎉

[@suranpun]

Awesome video Sam! My dream company would be GoPro. Simply because I love their products. I just love how a small camera can capture great images and gives me freedom to record action videos.

[@vasekcernosek5977]

I just recently got DJI drone and felt love with it and for sure now it’s for me dream client that I would like to work with because the drone just move my production to next level and I use other DJI products like gimbals or the microphones.

[@ChrisRogers]

Yeah Sam! Love the hustle and dedication you put into your videos!

[@ashton_gray]

Love how dedicated you are to your audience not only to inspire them, but also give tangible ways they can improve in the industry and gain real methods and tools for success. Dream client is hard to choose, DJI is a close tie, but Davinci would probably be number 1 since I owe most of my videography growth to their free version and the ability to learn from their platform.

[@EasyTigerCreative]

Love the insight Sam! Always inspiring to push myself to reach those milestones!❤

[@Almendarezwilliam]

Sony my dream company

[@IsomPhilips]

I'm fairly new to the DJI world but I own two of their drones and an Action 2 camera. I love their products and their dedication to their customers is second to none. It would be a dream to work with them someday but I have a lot of work to do in building a portfolio. Thanks for your input Sam. This video was inspirational

[@martinbaran1265]

My dream company is RedBull. i like like they always impress me and I am thinking, damn, how they did that, i want to shoot that! I'm often forgetting about this dreams that I have, but videos like this are reminders, that I didn't have to fall a sleep on this dreams. Love you Sam 💙

[@jaysonhindle]

Yo Sam. I just wanted to say thank you. Thank you for being you and providing us with the GREATEST Cinematic Films on KZbin. Your visuals, your values are amazing bro. So cheers 🇬🇧

[@jemlang]

Such a good video Sam. Great tips and advice. Appreciate that you’re sharing your success so others can succeed with you. For me, it’s Sony hands down. I’ve been using their gear for years now and couldn’t create what I do without them. Got a couple of ideas I will pitch to them when I’ve got them ready to go.

[@Silvasvisuals]

I did dream of working on a turtleneck ad and it came true 🥹 Super insightful video dude! Absolutely loved it

[@lukepalms_]

Awesome video mate! So good to hear the real stories behind landing things like this! WANDRD is my dream client personally - I love what they're doing!

[@aaron_hall]

Love this Sam, super useful! I’d love to work with Nat Geo always been a dream to be able to film people in all corners of the world and show how they live in harmony with the land🤟🏼

[@faithful_films_official]

Super inspiring as always, thanks Sam!

[@GuidanceGrowth]

Great video, Sam! My ideal company would definitely be Dji. The reason is simple: I have a deep affection for their products. The way a compact camera can effortlessly capture incredible images and provide me with the liberty to shoot dynamic action videos is something that truly resonates with me.

[@AndrejGanow]

Mercedes Logo with Tesla Clip 😀Still Love it haha

[@eleventhvision]

So cool, Sam! Goals right there. reeeeeeeeeeallly goals.

[@gaston_luna]

Such a great story Sam! Love that mindset.

[@jordiher22chanel33]

Hello Sam, Ever since I was five years old, my aspiration has been to collaborate with a turtleneck👚👚 company. There's something incredibly comforting about the way they feel, and I'm truly drawn to them 😂😂. Just kiding my true dream brand, without a doubt, is Ferrari. My fascination with cars started during my childhood, where I found joy in creating edits using my toy cars. Now, my ambition is to venture into the world of filmmaking, specializing in crafting captivating car advertisements, particularly tailored for Ferrari. The prospect of combining my passion for film with my love for cars is a goal that continuously fuels my drive. 🚗🎥

[@shredthegnar_]

Canon USA!!!!! Would love to work along side amazing creators like you Sam!!

[@JamesBottomleyProductions]

Sam, this video is awesome! Not only did I get so much value out of it, but I couldn't stop smiling and laughing the entire way through! My dream client would probably be either DJI or Canon because these are products/brands I've been using since the start of my videography journey and I have a deep respect and passion for. Creamin and Dreamin is probably my new motto😂 what a gem

[@Wasmm_]

Sam is one of the few creators that really cares for his audience to achieve their goals. Never change brother, you're the best❤

[@user-dh7re5ct5r]

Really love you brother ❤️.. Love from INDIA 🇮🇳♥️♥️🫡

[@PickleballRevolution]

That was very helpful info Sam! Thanks for an uplifting video on what it takes.

[@jeffreyyahiro9704]

I’d love to work with KZbin honestly. Not sure what i would do for them but I’ve always admired the platform and how they have pushed creators. That’s my dream company! i think it really has allowed people to push their creative boundary and given a place for creators to thrive

[@Epicframesmedia]

Such an amazing video man! My dream companies are Dji, Canon, and Insta 360 I am at the beginning of my career as a filmmaker and I know I have a long way to go to get there! You are such a huge inspiration! Thank you for sharing so much knowledge!

[@DanielEllender]

My man! I had an absolute blast competing in that competition. Super valuable information right here. Love the behind the scenes look at how you strike these partnerships and deals, thank you for sharing 🙏

[@mildbang]

I think DJI is my dream company also, thank you, this video is so helpfull!!

[@SkyMaus]

oh wow! what an amazingly in depth and equally beautiful video! Thanks so much! 🐭🐭🐭

[@rprbeck]

Aye man, had so much fun shooting and making the music! Also, great input :) And your delivery is getting sooooooooo good! Love just watching you do your thing

[@TheDukesOfDerbyshire]

Hi Sam, your content always amazes me, it's super professional and high quality, you should have way more subscribers!! Keep up your hard work, it is an inspiration to others

[@PandaVisuals1109]

I love making action-filled and inspirational cinematic videos, and therefore I stand between the three brands for different reasons: 1. DJI - I love the cinematic shots that you can create from an aerial perspective with their drones. 2. Gopro - Nothing beats the amazing high-quality action shots the GoPro cameras can deliver. And 3. Artlist - No doubt the best platform for cinematic music and sound effects (always makes me shiver haha)

[@bychris_official]

Creamy storytelling and information Sam. Thank you. Beautiful Destinations is my dream company to work with. That will be a dream come true. Traveling the world to share its beauty with everyone.

[@johntsavi]

It's the Sony Alpha that I want to work with, holds a special place in my heart. While my experience with other brands might be limited, there's an emotional connection that I share with the Alpha. It's not just about technicalities; it's about a feeling that ignites my creativity.

[@OliverPalocko]

Tha waterfalls are so beautiful

[@familialatina.]

Love you brother!

[@kenzeon]

My dream brand has to be Aputure. I’m a beginner in the industry and always walk away extremely inspired from any one of your videos. Cheers dude!

[@hitmakerzmedia]

Man … I miss Kolder, High On Life & Jay Alvarrez!! We need that time back! 😍🔥

[@Settoautofocus]

Great video. 1st time coming across your channel. You officially got a new subscriber. All good on the Lut's. I'm a filmora fan. Keep up the great content. Looking forward to viewing thru some of your videos here soon Piece

[@larsschlaper1173]

Grandios work! My dream company is Nikon, I using theire product since 5 Years and I love them!

[@andreasstaicu]

Thank you for these informative insights, man! Ever since I started my photography / videography journey, I wanted to work with Porsche. No matter how surreal this idea might be. But getting the opportunity to take one of these amazing pieces of engineering out on the streets and experiencing the adrenalin coming with that would just be mindblowing. However, great video as always. Stay creamy!

[@GDavisLunch]

Well the cool part is that I already have your Immersion pack and it’s 🔥. As far as my dream company, I think I’ll go with Zhiyun. I’ve been a fan of their gimbals for awhile and their new line of lights dope!!

[@cjhaye1259]

beautiful destinations, dji, and sony 🥹🥹😓

[@SkySurgeDroneAdventures]

Cheers for that, some really good advice I can apply to my work when approaching potential clients.

[@heykelseyj]

Great informative video Sam! You killed this partnership, so creative.

[@PropulsionSwimming]

Big up this video 🙏🏻 Been following Sam for a long time for inspiration and enjoyment. This year we secured a channel changing deal with the biggest brand in our space, Speedo, after an initial 1 month trial project that blew doors off expectations ‘Go above and beyond’ advice to live by.

[@inospect]

Awesome video Sam!

[@zakariasnagy]

I would be pretty much down to many extreme sports projects. Motorsports, skiing, on the mountains, on the sea..Also DJI sounds great :D cheers

[@livesongs82]

If i could, it would have to be pelican. Ive been in the miltary for the past 12 years and seen 1st hand the quality of their products that it wasnt a surpise when i startedt transporting my camera equipment stateside, that i knew id be in good hands, well more so my gear. The ability to organize and manage your equipment is a fluid process and with so many siez available, you dont have to worry about over/underpacking packing.

[@kaloyantsilev]

Awesome Sam! My three would be Sony, DJI and PolarPro (currenlty I love their filters) but that list can go on.

[@AdamPovison]

i was really inspird by this video and I even created a commercial for the dji air 3 in order to work for dji and they got back to me . thanks sam

[@InfiniteFlightGuy]

How did you get started? I’m interested in working with them too.

[@richardgille]

my dream client would be a bike brand like canyon. i just love their desing and the performace of their bíkes. i always wantet to shoot a comercial for a new bike of them.

[@JackyLi]

This was extremely insightful with DJI and your experience. Gotta always overdeliver for dream collabs!

[@elodiegrenier968]

Thanks for the tips Sam ! My dream client is definitely Patagonia !!

[@White-Lizard]

hi sam thanks a lot for the motivation, it's surly the most important feeling to kept. there is so many interesting brand out there but i start my filmaking journey with a sony 13 years ago to definitly them, and then some outdoors brand like picture organic clothing

[@youknowwithMartyKauffman]

Great stuff

[@darylswalker]

Valuable tips dude to what ever industry we are targeting! DJI is definitely a dream client too 😮 one day!

[@johnwilliams2900]

Thanks for sharing. THat was incredible. I'm not quite sure the direction I wish to go in but I am working on it. You gave some great and honest advice. Peace!

[@mtmstudio7000]

My dream company is Sony, i wanna be the 3rd sony ambassador here in Perú, and i wanna be the youngest, thank you so much for the inspiration Sam, keep it going :D. Saludos desde Chachapoyas

[@BenjiSelby]

Aye this was dope advice! It’s cool to see your hard work pay off, it gives hope to keep going 👌🏾 I would say my dream brand is Nike, I’ve grown up wearing Nike all my life and my brother works there now and I’m working on a spec project with my brother, sharing his journey to working at Nike.

[@benowa]

Thank you for the great tips, Sam and Cody! Now I know what to do: make a really really good portfolio to work with Canon and Hoka One One!

[@rohanwilcox]

Such a good video Sam and some really thoughtful advice! My dream job in filmmaking revolves around collaborating with brands like DJI or North Face. With a passion for the outdoors and a thirst for exploring new horizons, i dream for the chance to craft compelling visual stories that align with these iconic names, capturing the beauty of nature and to inspire people to get out and go for their dreams!!

[@walterpphotography]

Hello Sam thanks for this video and information about how to go after your dream. I myself would love to work with dji and blackmagic because I feel that these are a great combination for me. I love all of dji products especially their drones and also their gimbals with their LiDAR technology. Well hopefully some day they will come around. Thanks again Sam appreciate you.

[@caichen836]

Thanks for the much needed inspiration and motivation man! I would love to do an underwater campaign with Canon 🤞

[@yosoyfrancisco]

you killed it bro

[@michaelkosinski5671]

Me too DJI. In fact it was the original reason for clicking on the video. Even if it doesn't become a reality it's still ok to dream right. Thank you for the video though very informative.

[@zachwiegert2079]

Such an interesting and informative video, thanks Sam! I'd love to work with some big outdoor gear brands like Black Diamond or Mountain Hardwear. The big dream client is definitely Sony Alpha though!

[@kobebryt4269]

Thanks for sharing... Peace✌️

[@zachanayaa]

Move valuable video on KZbin right now

[@Spyrosdaf12]

ty Sam

[@schoeferfilm]

I am since Phantom 1 at start 💪🏼😉 flying without a monitor 😂 it was crazy 🙈 but legendary shots I never forget

[@oliverfrankphoto]

My favorite brand: a small, not that weird KZbin commercial for turtlenecks.

[@johnnoblemedia]

Great information Sam. I would love to work with DJI. Their products smash the competition.

[@MariusToft]

Thank you for always putting out ecouraging and inspiring content!🙏 I would personally love to work with Sony or DJI!

[@wilsonreavley]

One of my dream companies to work with would be Garmin because I think it would be super cool to try to tell a story that mixes outdoors/athletics with interesting data.

[@RecoveryoneDrone]

Good info to learn by

[@loganlear]

Your too humble, we all know those biceps weren’t photoshopped 😤👌

[@droneartmedia]

Great and inspiring video! 😉👌

[@aaronoakley6422]

Great video as always! I would have to say my top brands to work with are nomatic super big fan of their backpacks or Oakley since I’m already sponsoring them with my last name haha

[@jkfilmsphoto5299]

Thanks for the tips Sam! I am trying for a couple of years to be a Dji creator but I suppose I am not there yet as you mentioned. I won’t give up of course. Have a nice day!

[@yankey4]

Mine would be a fun video with you. I make videos for solar and homesteading stuff. But the real stuff I like are the vacation and travel videos I made over the years. Ps I had 2 shirts from Cuts but someone stole them out my truck after we left the air port. Well more like stole my carry on luggage. Thanks for sharing man. God Bless

[@futuron8946]

I want to work with Sam to learn to be as pro as he is 😎

[@MavericksDrone]

Just subscribed. Helps my ptsd. I own a mini 3 Pro and a Mavic 3 CLASSIC.

[@ivnprince]

Great video as always mate! I would like to work with you, since you're inspiring ,funny and makes really really good videos :)

[@user-wt7bv1ub3d]

Great videos man!! I’d love to work with any sports brand, or maybe DJI. Really just anything to get me out doing fun things that I love to do!

[@markhaic]

Hey, Sam, I've really enjoyed your tongue in cheek humor! I never though about a "dream company" because I just enjoy making silly videos right now but I do think making a video with the Pokemon Company would be cool to say I've done. Thank you for making the most ridiculous content with unnecessarily high production value I've seen here on KZbin and giving me an outline to aspire higher!

[@CreatorFXShop]

Saw some Creator FX 'Blue Future Transitions' in there! 🔥We are FX'n honored. Haha great video as always Sam. (Black ripped jeans & helicopters sold separately)**

[@TooGood79]

Cool video sir 👍🏾 My dream Co. to do a job for would be any clothing magazine. It sounds simple enough, but I have always been intrigued with the clean, sharp images in magazines since I was 6 years old looking at my grandmother’s SPIEGEL catalog 😂 To this day I look through Lucchese catalogs, Boot Barn, Nike, etc that I receive in the mail and think “I can shoot that” 😎 probably never will for any of those names, but I still enjoy making the same images with my own community for smaller clientele. 😁

[@thomascokerclips]

Great video as always! Sony because I would love to try out their other lense

[@solabomioyebiyi131]

My dream company is Audi because I think their cars are very simplistic and clean in terms of design yet powerful. I think I’m like that as well 😅

[@capturespixels_]

Thanks for these tips, i have a few companies that i would love to work with one is apple, Dji that’s few of the many companies and thanks for the info that’s really helpful and appreciated! =)

[@joann5915]

Nike would be dope! Honestly gotta start shooting more and practicing

[@Imageyenation]

Mine wouldn’t be a company per se, but a place. That place would be Newmarket Ontario. When I started watching KZbinrs, I found Matti Haapoja, then Peter McKinnon, then Howard Monteith, and Metropolis Coffee and they just feel like family. If I ever get to work with my dream “client”, I’d die a happy person.
