"Just because you are a character doesn't mean that you have character."
Hi, i'm Philippe.
Born in Tilburg, the Netherlands, 18 july 1991.
Graduated at Luca School of Arts, Brussels, with a Master in the Audiovisual Arts in 2017.
Currently living and working in Brussels,
Belgium.
My obsession with film began in my childhood, when my younger brother and I wanted to recreate Jurassic Park in our backyard using homemade papier-mâché dinosaurs and our grandfather’s borrowed camera. That same youthful energy and inexhaustible passion continues to drive me as a filmmaker. I still work closely with my brother.
As a filmmaker i'm mostly interested in telling stories about characters with inner struggles and dilemma's. Intimate and impactfull stories, that can transport the audience into the world of the character. Told in a way that can elevate the story itself.
The last couple of years since my graduation i've worked on many different projects (short, feature, television, corporate and series) in different disciplines. I have gained a lot of knowledge about all facets of filmmaking that i can apply as a director.
Currently shooting, writing and developing two feature films, a short documentary and a series project.
