Sam was awesome. Had him for TV Studio Production, TV Field Production and Internship. You will learn a ton. Makes you think. He helps you out a great deal.CMN1455 2019-01-20 21:54:48 +0000 UTC
Sam is awesome! It takes a LOT of time (like most projects took over 12 hours of extra lab time) and effort to do well, but it's well worth it. He might seem a little intimidating at first, but he's really down to earth and wants you to succeed.COMM4650 2018-04-12 11:47:26 +0000 UTC
Sam Lotuff is the creme de la creme of editors in our modern world. His knowledge of Avid and the Highlander Television Series is impeccable. mr. MCCLOUD.....HOLLYWOODVIDEO 2006-05-18 14:28:54 +0000 UTC
If Sam Lotif were a member of early 90s Nu Soul band "Color Me Bad" he would be a cross between the stubble guy and the Kenny G looking dude, except he'd know some stuff about TV production. If you like pancakes, Puffins, Rick Moranni's "Gravedale High" and have already had mono, take this class. But one word of advice to the ladies, WATCH your Mascara. Seriously.TVPRODUCTION 2005-09-23 13:25:25 +0000 UTC

good prof, learn a lot from him, but damn this guy is arrogant.AFEW 2004-12-11 13:57:57 +0000 UTC
Paces the class a bit weird, test questions are oh so random, and I sort of think he's a jerk/ student who just never wanted to leave, but I did learn a lot in the class, so i gues sit was all for the best.AVID 2003-04-29 09:48:39 +0000 UTC

Sam, is the man. Not only does he rock on the AVID system. But he enjoys his coffee. If you want to get on his good side, bring a LG coffee collata to class. If you want to get on his bad side. Drink it in front of him.CMN1455 2003-04-28 01:36:28 +0000 UTC
He likes to think he is tough, but he is a softy. If you show up and do the work on time, he will be very willing to help you out and cut you slack. That being said this class only has one absence allowed, so you have to go. He also sometimes brings food to class.COMM4650 2017-12-07 13:30:44 +0000 UTC
Extremely resourceful; knows the TV biz inside and out; always available to assist students; classes are challenging and tons of fun; young age allows him to identify with students - I HIGHLY recommend any of his classesTVFIELD 2004-04-07 19:46:01 +0000 UTC
Extremely knowledgable, down to earth, and always willing to help outside of class. But he does expect a lot, esp in Digital Editing. If he knows you're capable of doing good work and you slack off, he'll rip you a new one. But if you put forth a solid effort he will always do what he can to help you out. By far, my favorite college professor.COMM4650 2012-11-13 22:14:00 +0000 UTC
Sam is a very good professor. He talks to students like they are on his level, and is a nice guy both in and out of class. He knows editing inside and out, and is great at teaching and helping students with it. Recommended!TVFIELD 2003-12-15 20:51:34 +0000 UTC
