Phil Hunt

Head Gear Films

Phil is the founder and CEO of Head Gear Films, a prolific film, TV, and video games financier which has deployed over $500m USD in capital across 550+ films in the past two decades, and UK sales outfit Bankside Films (TALK TO ME, THE QUIET GIRL, I SWEAR). He has also co-founded several distribution companies, including UK-based disruptors Bohemia Media and (Yet) Another Distribution Company, as well as the recently announced New Zealand-based genre distributor (Yet) Another Monster Company. Altogether, Phil has produced or executive produced over 500 feature films in the past quarter of a century. Phil began his film career in the mid-90s by producing micro-budget features that occasionally found more than a micro audience. Prior to this, he was an advertising and music photographer working closely with popular post-punk bands like Big Audio Dynamite. He sporadically still dusts off his Hasselblad.
