Peter John Ross was formerly a broker for a large evil bank. Then after making several corporate videos and optioning screenplays to the studios, he moved on to make the 'Back Office' short film series for the internet. Along with several accolades came the swift change in careers to full time filmmaker when the opinions on Corporate America appeared as themes in the Back Office shorts, and he was fired. Sonnyboo Productions began self producing videos and films in early 2000. After that, Ross acted as a co-writer & co-producer on the feature length movie "Going Corporate", and immediately took on the sci-fi pilot for a series called "New World". Since then, Ross has worked on several feature length and short films. Most importantly, Peter John Ross founded the Columbus Filmmakers Consortium (www.thecfc.org), a non profit group to help filmmakers in the Midwest.
