SAM SNEADE’S WORK ON ‘SEXY BEAST’ AND ICONIC GUINNESS ‘SURFER’ RECOGNISED!

A look at standout work from echo’s Sam Sneade, whose editing continues to be recognised across film and advertising.

Jonathan Glazer’s ‘SEXY BEAST’ (2001), edited by echo’s Sam Sneade, was recently featured in The Guardian’s ‘The Seven Best Films to Watch on TV This Week’, highlighting the film’s enduring impact as a modern British classic. The film is available to watch on Channel 4.

Sam also edited the iconic 1999 Guinness ‘Surfer’ commercial, directed by Jonathan Glazer and created by AMV BBDO, which was honoured during the British Arrows 2026 celebrations, marking 50 years of British advertising. The commercial was ranked the 3rd best British ad of all time in a poll announced in March 2026.

A testament to the lasting impact of Sam’s work across both film and advertising.
