A life in
film & sound.
I’m Sam Neufeld.
A filmmaker, trumpeter, and a curious person.
People.
Places.
Real stories.
I make documentary-style films about people and the things they care about.
Through Noof Designs, I work with artists, organizations, and businesses to turn those stories into something you can see and feel.

there was
the trumpet.
Twenty-plus years of finding my voice.
Still listening. Still playing.
I’m drawn to melody, space, and the feeling a single phrase can leave behind.
Music has taken me from Milwaukee to stages around the world, alongside artists including Brian Lynch, Dafnis Prieto, Leslie Odom Jr., Chris Botti, and Gonzalo Rubalcaba.
Good things
start with
a warmup.
Make practice
part of your day.
A place to keep growing.
I created Trumpet Warmup to help trumpet players build their practice, with guidance from artists who live and breathe the instrument.
It brings together two big parts of my life: making music and making videos.

more to
get into.
A long run. A good coffee.
A game of pickleball.
Somewhere I haven’t been yet.
A few of the things that keep me curious.
