Scott Grummett is a photographer and director based in London but shooting worldwide.

Scott’s work centres primarily around food and drink but can cover large scale sets, portraits, documentary, travel, you name it. His work has a vibrant graphic advertising look and focuses on good looking food and wholesome touches of real life.

This particular Showcase focuses on a recent piece of personal work entitled JELLY. For months he has wanted to create a series of stills and a music video style film of jelly dancing to the beat, sometimes with an elegant rippling wobble, at others a thriving mosh pit of head bangers. It’s a self confessed silly boy project, a juvenile and joyful dance around a subject that crosses all generations and can’t help but bring a smile to your face.
