SAM PROBST

Hey there, I’m Sam!

I pride myself on being someone who lives and breathes the art of filmmaking. It all began back in my childhood, where I roamed the neighborhood with a camcorder, crafting homemade movies starring friends. That early passion blossomed into a thriving career as both an independent filmmaker and a seasoned video editor for a Fortune 500 Media enterprise.

My professional journey started at film school from 2008 to 2012, and upon graduation, I dove headfirst into the world of digital video editing at OWN: Oprah Winfrey Network, where I dedicated nearly 12 years of my life. While making significant strides in my role at OWN, I also ventured into independent filmmaking alongside my husband, Colby. Together, we brought our debut feature film, "Pig Hag," to life, premiering it at SXSW in 2019. Last year, I bid farewell to OWN to focus on finalizing post-production for my second feature film, "Ganymede," slated for release this year. Colby and I drive our independent film endeavors through our production company, Neighborhood Pictures.

If you're intrigued by my personal projects as an independent filmmaker or my expertise as a digital video editor for client-based endeavors, feel free to explore my portfolio below. I'm always on the lookout for projects brimming with passion and excitement!
