Philip graduated with honors from California State University, Northridge with a degree in film and television production in 1997.

[edit] Film Career

After completing the dramatic short Sway in 2001, Philip went to work on his next short project "Walkentalk" which has quickly become a festival favorite thrilling audiences on the fest circuit. My Big Fat Independent Movie marked his feature directorial debut. A firestorm of internet debate soon erupted over the film's lowbrow treatment of independent film classics and, as a result, the movie suffered a backlash from die-hard independent film fans, many of which considered the film to be blasphemous toward the genre.[1]
