Jakob Grunert

His viral for Edeka ‘Supergeil’ for which he also co-wrote the song introduced him to the world of advertising. Kind of accidentally, because music was definitely his first love. He studied visual arts in Hamburg and completed a film degree at Pratt Institute in New York. He was the secret member of a mysterious band and has worked as a film composer, including various ‘Tatort’ episodes and ‘NEBENAN’ by Daniel Brühl. His two solo albums remain insider’s tips.

In 2011 he co-wrote and directed the great and weird musical ‘Icke – die Oper’ at Volksbühne Berlin. He has directed many music videos for the likes of Marteria, Seeed, Solomun feat. Jamie Foxx and others. His work is defined by a strong sense for visual comedy, which he brings to life in both narrative and commercial formats. He has created campaigns for brands like VW, O2, and Fisherman’s Friend. Jakob is a true creative vending machine – tons of ideas, while his foot is tapping to the rhythm.
