In 2011 Phil founded Films by Nomad, a UAE based Production House specialising in documentaries, branded storytelling and content strategies for some of the largest companies and broadcasters across the globe.
While acting as a film director and general manager for Nomad, in 2024 Phil launched Nomad Green, a group of companies including Films by Nomad, Production by Nomad, (specialising in production services), Lillie Street, (specialising in positive impact projects) and Toy Green Films; a production house that utilises all of the groups resources to make world class independent documentary feature films and docuseries.
As a Film Director Phil uses Toy Green Films as a space where he can tell the stories he wants to tell, and use his experience from a multitude of genres to make them in his own particular way. Approachable, authentic, humorous, honest and organic. To Phil every film is a journey that changes him in some way, so he is keen to make sure those journeys count. The subject matter that he loves the most is ‘Outliers’. Heroes that sit outside the system, driven by an insatiable hunger to make a positive impact. The modern day rockstars with unique skillsets, maverick mindsets and incredible life stories; full of resilience, courage and an innovative spirit.
