WOOF! Short Film

UPDATE 19 FEBRUARY 2016:
Dear WOOF! Supporters,
I can't believe it has been eight whole months since we reached our pozible target. It feels like we have accomplished so much and come so far since then. Thanks to your support (pledging money, spreading the word about our campaign) we have not only made a film but also formed an entire community of people who care about seeing female stories on the screen.
WOOF! has just had its world premiere in the ‘Best of Australian’ program at Australia’s Academy accredited Flickerfest International Short Film Festival. We were also extremely fortunate to win the Avid Award for ‘Best Editing in an Australian Short Film’. This was a game changing experience for me as a director and I can’t stress how grateful I am to you for believing in our story before we had even made it.

Also keep checking your mail boxes, we are currently designing T-Shirts and sending out the last of our pozible rewards!
Thank you once again for all your support, I will never forget the contribution you made to this film.

Writer-Director-Editor WOOF!

There are not enough female protagonists in cinema today. From the 250 highest grossing Hollywood films of 2014, females were only protagonists 25% of the time and only spoke 30% of the time.
Rather than dwelling on these depressing statistics, we have decided to channel our energy into passionate and creative film making that will make a difference. We are making a controversial, provocative and empowering short film that focuses on the female experience during teenage hood. This film will break taboos, push boundaries and encourage girls all over the world to stand up for themselves.
As women, we make up 50% of the population, buy 50% of movie tickets and we're 100% sick of the film industry misrepresenting us. Help us make a difference by supporting this film.
