Samarra Studios is the culmination of over a decade of work from multi-disciplined business owner, Adrian Samarra. From humble beginnings in the UK, Adrian put himself through film school, graduating top of his class, and went on to found and operate one of the UK's most reputable outdoor film-focused media agencies - Coldhouse Collective, before moving to the USA to be with his wife Jordan.
Adrian's journey has seen him directing and producing films on every continent on earth, and using his knowledge of 10+ years in the industry he now runs Understate Media, a film production company based in Provo UT, specializing in corporate/commercial film production.

As a lifelong adventure sports lover, Adrian has always owned and converted cargo vans into adventure-ready vehicles for work and play. Now on his 4th personal van build and with countless others under his belt, Adrian decided to establish a van building venture to run in parallel with his film work. Converted Van Co. was established in November 2020 where Adrian and his team professionally convert vans into bespoke custom adventure campervans, from their workshop in Provo, UT.
