Matthew P. Scott is an award winning cinematographer based out of London working in commercials and drama.

His work has been showcased in major festivals including Sundance 2025, BFI London Film Festival 2025, Cannes 2022, Brighton Rocks Film Festival 2024.
His passion and talent were recognised by BAFTA when he was selected for their Connect Program in 2022 and by the BSC when he was accepted into the Mentorship Program in 2026.
In his commercial work, he is known for his collaborative nature and bold imagery working with many major brands such as Hilton, Burberry, Barclays, Microsoft, Odeon, L’Oreal, Cartier, Sony Music and many more.
