RSA Films Photo & Art, the photography and illustration division of the Ridley Scott Creative Group, is launching in the U.S. with the current award-winning roster available to its growing stateside clientele.
Established in 2013 out of the Ridley Scott Creative Group HQ in London, RSA Films Photo & Art represents directors with accomplished photographic portfolios and up-and-coming, as well as established photographers, illustrators and moving image makers. The division works alongside RSA Films’ existing moving-image productions where any combination of commercial visual talent is possible, making the Ridley Scott Creative Group of companies a one-stop shop for multi-platform commercial campaigns.
RSA Films Photo & Art has created work for clients including the BBC, Cathay Pacific, Hugo Boss, Morrisons, M&S, Stella McCartney, Vans and Vodafone, with commissions from Elle, Dazed, Harper’s Bazaar, i-D, LOVE, Sunday Times, Vogue and 1843/The Economist, among numerous others.
Photographers’ agent and sr. producer Vanessa Griggs will be joining from New York to help launch the division in the U.S., bringing more than 20 years’ experience working across advertising and editorial for photography and moving image.
“We have really exciting artists located both in the U.S. and in Europe,” said Susie Babchick, global head of RSA Films Photo & Art. “We’ve really enjoyed the commissions we’ve worked on with American brands so far. Now, with Vanessa Griggs handling the U.S., there should be so much more scope to do so.”
Griggs said of the launch, “It’s a great opportunity to further combine the company’s longstanding expertise in the industry with the creativity of American brands.”
