Courtney Phillips

Skipping the conventional route, Courtney ditched school at 16 and hustled his way up in the industry. He even put up his own cash to kickstart his journey, directing his first music video for the then-underground band Bastille. Talk about self-made. Since then, he's been a force to reckon with, crafting mind-blowing promos for artists like Tiësto, Tate McRae, Troy Sivan, and a slew of other names that might not ring a bell if you're over 30. But hey, that's the cutting edge he's on.
With nominations piling up for best video and best direction, Courtney's become synonymous with visionary artistry. Even heavyweights like Rita Ora and David Guetta are known to specifically request his magic touch.
And it's not just about music anymore. Courtney's lent his bold voice to brands ranging from the BBC to Havana Club, Bose to Bacardi, and beyond. His knack for storytelling extends to the commercial realm, with clients like Miller, New Balance, KFC, Puma, Superdry, Snickers, Kia, and Credit Suisse all jumping on board.
Coming from the world of music videos, Courtney's found his sweet spot in films that weave human motion, dance, and choreography into the narrative.
With every project, Courtney keeps us guessing, fearlessly diving into new music genres and filmmaking styles while staying true to his distinct voice and authentic vibe. The man's a true trailblazer.
