Who is the man inside the tutorials?
If Video Copilot is the most popular site on the planet for After Effects tutorials, then Sam Loya must be the most recognised tutorial talent. Appearing in dozens of Andrew Kramer’s tutorials sometimes wielding a light sabre or machine gun and other times being blasted to pieces, Sam’s style has given the tutorials a professional edge. In this funny episode, learn more about Sam, his work with Video Copilot and his “love” of sport!

Sam Loya is a legend! He makes the techniques Andrew is trying to teach so much easier to follow.
Much kudos to him

Sam Loya is exactly what I expect to see, he has a great sense of humor ! keep it up Sam.

Sam Loya is the world’s greatest stunt man! …It’s rumored, in certain cirlces, that Steve Railsback modeled his character after this real life legend of the industry.

Awesome, awesome, and more awesome. Great interview John, and thanks for interviewing such a cool guy who should be in the spotlight more often.
GO SAM! And Andrew, if you’re watching, let Sam live in at least one tutorial.

Very interesting ! and for sure, Sam rules ^^;

Hey MotionWorks
lol
Thanks John
it was really fun watching this particular interview but I have enjoyed all the others too.
Would it be ok if we suggest potential names for interview ?

Good interview John
I hardly recognize him.
Not burned, not disappeared, not exploded.
He is great guy and certainly is crucial for the many successes of the institution “Video Copilot.”
Without Sam – no good tutorials.
John, as always, an excellent move and interview. Thanks and a greeting.

Unplugged is such a great show, John! This was a great episode.

Glad you enjoyed it John. Best wishes, John.

Sam is the main man!

PS
Sam needs a page on imdb.com

Sam has definitely been a part of the success of VCP. I hope to see him on the big screen, or TV someday.

Awesome interview john, though he did stutter on the fringe question, uhmm conspiracy?
Aha what a cool bloke.
July 11, 2010 at 7:40 am |
Thanks Richard and all of you for your comments. Not sure about Fringe
Best wishes, John.

July 12, 2010 at 9:27 pm |
You just have to smile when you see Sam’s face, he looks like he’s constantly on the verge of cracking up laughing, I love that. Awesome interview John, good call on having Sam on unplugged. Thanks!
July 13, 2010 at 8:57 pm |
I’ve always like Sam, he’s down to earth and has a great sense of humor. But now that I know that he’s not a keen sports follower and prefers to watch documentaries I like him even more !
July 15, 2010 at 11:58 am |
Great video! AK may have started VC, but we all know who the real star of the show is

I found this website the other week through a link on Rober Leger and I absolutely love it here! I first saw the interview with Rob Redman, asolutely brilliant and then I suddenly saw Sam Loya! What?!? Fantastic!
Thank you very much, John for all these inspiring videos/interviews. Sometimes I’m just listening on the background while working with C4D….
