Samuel Skipp

About Samuel

I’m a creative and ambitious storyteller, always chasing ideas that push my limits. Whether through filmmaking, worldbuilding, or writing, I thrive on crafting stories that evoke emotion. Cinematography is my biggest inspiration—I love how light and composition shape a scene’s mood. Once extremely shy, I’ve grown into someone who values deep connections and creative collaboration. I’m a perfectionist about the details but also adaptable, always learning from every experience. My ADHD and autism influence how I see the world, making focus a challenge at times but also driving my passion and dedication. I’m a dreamer with a practical side, constantly imagining new possibilities while working to build something real. Whether it’s developing a film, writing a dark fantasy story, or wanting to create a choice-based game, I put my heart into every project. Above all, I want to create work that resonates, leaving a lasting impact. If I can do that while working with like-minded people, I know I’m on the right path.
