I’m Samuel Burns, a film and documentary student based in Woodquay, Galway, focused on telling emotional, human stories through strong visuals and careful editing. Across short documentaries and promo projects, I enjoy building the look of a piece from early mood boards and shot lists through to final post-production, while keeping the filmmaking process collaborative and organized. I’ve worked in roles including director, producer, cinematographer/DOP, camera assistant, and remote editor, including industry-style collaborations like the “Surf Mayo” promo and campaign work supporting The Simon Community. I’m especially drawn to narratives about relationships, memory, and personal change—whether that’s exploring life after a loss, growing apart from childhood, or celebrating the value of physical media through the senses.…I’m Samuel Burns, a film and documentary student based in Woodquay, Galway, focused on telling emotional, human stories through strong visuals and careful editing.
