"I don't make films to win awards;
I make films because I love making films.
I enjoy directing, DoP-ing, editing, creating my own special effects, composites and graphics, grading my projects and finally mixing all of the sound myself, all as a one man band from start to finish to the highest commercial spec because it's fun and I can... I learned from the industry's best!
I generally win awards when other people enter my work for them!
Perhaps my greatest industry rewards are the life of extreme adventure I've experienced, the joy of being creative and the fantastic repeat business I've earned from my many delighted clients!" PT

The excellent relationship built with the MoD over the first 6 months of 2007 saw Phil invited to join the elite British Army team attempting the summit of the highest mountain in Tibet - Shishapangma - an 8012m peak and one of the highest mountains in the world. The team enjoys the patronage of Lt Gen. Lamb CMG DSO OBE, Sir Chris Bonnington CBE and Doug Scott CBE.

"Although Phil is relatively new to the ski touring and technical climbing world, during the course of his time with the team he has proven himself fully capable and earned himself a place not only as the expedition film-maker but a fully respected team member."
