About Me

THOMAS SCOTT

I am an award-winning documentary photographer and filmmaker delivering impactful stories through creative media. Having achieved a First-Class Honours degree in Marine & Natural History Photography, for which I specialised in video production, I have worked on a range of documentary, commercial, and social media projects.

This includes self-producing a documentary about regenerative farming, which made the ‘Official Selection’ in the Cornwall Film Festival 2024, a commercial photoshoot for Ocean BMW, and a promotional film for Cornwall Wildlife Trust.

My goal is to engage audiences with underrepresented subjects through visual storytelling. Working with Cornwall Wildlife Trust, I produced a film to celebrate their Marine Strandings Network, a group of 200 volunteers that monitors dead marine wildlife. The film raised the profile of their pioneering research and showcased the everyday heroes working at the forefront of marine conservation.

My practice has led me to work on projects with BBC StudiosLightbox Film Co.Cornwall Wildlife TrustOcean BMW Falmouth, and Lay’s Auctioneers. It gained national recognition when my photograph, “The Dispute” (below), received first prize in the RSPCA Young Photographer Awards 2020 (16-18 Years).

I take an innovative approach to all my projects, using my creative and technical experience in cameras, drones, and gimbals to tell impactful stories. If you have a project that you would like to collaborate on, please get in touch.
