Frankfurt: Maik Scharfscheer

Frankfurt/Main-based photographer and director Maik Scharfscheer has implemented several films and shoots for a range of companies and agencies. He develops scripts in conjunction with agencies and often takes on the role of producer.

In the last year Maik has been nominated for over 10 awards. He won a Bronze Lion at Cannes for design project 'The Paper Skin' for Fedrigoni in cooperation with agency Geometry Global. He was also responsible for the Leica campaign with Danny MacAskill in Cape Town which won Gold at the annual Multimedia Film Awards.

Maik also shot the latest TV spot for DHU-Schüssler Salze, Leica T Polishing ('the most Boring Ad') that attracted widespread media attention, the new Leica T image film, and a trailer on the strip in Kitzbühl for Huck Netze.

Maik loves to combine photography and film in one project and enjoys working with manageable creative teams - which explains why he is so often accompanied by cameraman Thomas Stoll, with whom he has developed and implemented numerous projects.
