When was Dogwoof born?
Dogwoof Pictures was formed in 2002 as a film distribution company. The company was formed to release innovative quality films and to help develop new and emerging filmmakers.
Why "Dogwoof"?
20th Century Fox, Lions Gate, so why not Dogwoof.
DOGWOOF started life as a working title. Over time we grew to love it and so have kept the name.
And, importantly, if you Google DOGWOOF, we are the top search result and the only one.
Today, anybody who knows Dogwoof will associate this name with an innovative, professional and honest company.
What type of films do Dogwoof distribute?
GOOD STORIES
We believe best films tell universal stories.
Not too complex, not overly arty or experimental, we want humane stories that will linger in people’s mind for all the good reasons. It can be a drama, comedy, thriller, etc. ideally with an edge.
We are not fussy about budgets, but only select films with a significant cinematic and narrative quality.
We support new and emerging filmmakers. The vast majority of our films are by first and second time Directors. We seek out fresh and innovative films.
Does Dogwoof read scripts?
Dogwoof acquires mainly completed films. After working with some really talented first time director/writes, we are starting to get involved in some productions at an early stage, but do not accept unsolicited scripts.
How can I submit a film for your consideration?
We do not accept unsolicited videotapes.
If you have a completed film which you think fits what we are looking for, e-mail a VERY brief description of your film (synopsis, cast, budget, year production, etc.) to:
acquisitions@dogwoofpictures.com
If the film interests us we will contact you to request a screener.
Does Dogwoof have any job vacancies?
No. At present we have no permanent positions available.
Does Dogwoof offer internships?

than two months at 20 hours per week, for a stipend, please email your CV
