Bio & background

Sam Walker is a commercial director who bridges advertising and cinematic storytelling with a twenty-year career spanning major global brands and award-winning narrative work. He directs for Superprime (US, UK, Netherlands), Exit Films (Australia, New Zealand), Pulse Films (US), and Creators Inc globally, while serving as Global Creative Partner at Uncommon Creative Studio. His recent commercial work includes Airwallex "Sparks," the stunt-driven Avios "Everyday" featuring 35 people performing tasks on e-foil surfboards shot almost entirely in-camera, and Formula E's "Progress is Unstoppable," where he threw a car from a plane rather than rely on green screen. Walker has directed campaigns for British Airways, SiriusXM, EA Sports, Supercell, ITV, B&Q, Britbox, De'Longhi, and numerous others. His short films won top prizes at Clermont-Ferrand, San Sebastian, and ICA, and he made his feature debut with horror film The Seed (2021), acquired by Shudder/AMC. Walker spent over seven years at Mother London before serving as Creative Director at Fallon and Executive Creative Director at Karmarama, giving him deep understanding of translating creative briefs to screen while collaborating with agency partners and clients.
