Hello!

My name is Sam Quak. I’m a 23-year-old creative producer from Rotterdam, Netherlands. I mainly create film, animation, visual art and music. I’d like to welcome you to my website where you’ll find it all.

My whole life I’ve been obsessed with movies, cartoons, games and music. From my first few years on earth till my final year at elementary school I could dream all day and share my dreams with others in great detail. This was mostly film-related. In 2012 I started creating my very first animations with a Nintendo 3DS. Later on, I started creating more content on the computer. This includes VFX, Flash animations and electronic music.

Since 2015 I’ve been describing myself as a fanboy. I began sharing my love for Fandom culture and started visiting several fan conventions. In 2018 I started contributing to these conventions. I had three guest appearances and made several opening animations.

I am a graduated junior motion graphic designer with a secondary vocational education level 4 diploma. I am currently studying Digital Arts & Entertainment at Howest University of Applied Science in Kortrijk. My goal is to change my hobbies into a dream job in the film industry.

Today, I am able to work with the following software:

I have been using Adobe software since 2014 and I am still using it to this day. After Effects and Animate are my number one animation tools as I work mostly in 2D. In addition, I create my own electronic music and OST’s for my videos. This is all done in FL Studio 11. While I use Photoshop for background design and photo editing, I mainly make my drawings in Animate as I prefer the tools inside this program. For 3D animation and modelling, I use Cinema 4D. Sometimes I create a full animation inside Cinema 4D, while in some cases, I like to animate 3D objects inside of After Effects with Element 3D. I do my video editing inside After Effects or Premiere Pro.

Curious about what types of media I create? Feel free to check out my portfolio!
