He made the artistic film The Lyre of Mesopotamia, which received an award for 'best video art' in the 1st Persbookart Contest on Facebook in 2010. In 2011 Dutch singer/songwriter Linde Nijland asked him to make a music video for her song "Traveller", after having seen a video he made for the song 'A Spaceman Came Travelling' by Chris de Burgh. Traveller has been the official selection of many prestigious music video and film festivals around the globe and has been screened in different countries so far. In 2013, Sam won the Royal Reel Award from Canada International Film Festival for this music video and it was also voted no. 1 in the Frisian charts in the Klipkar+TV programme.
