Launched in early 2010, WOLF is a boutique PR and Marketing firm specialised in helping filmmakers effectively communicate and achieve their vision. Through many years experience working for sales agents and producers, launching hundreds of films, we understand the demands of the market and offer an intelligent, fast, no-nonsense creative service. In our fragmented industry we're here to help join the dots. Marketing & communications are an integral part of the storytelling process, and our approach encompasses the entire production cycle: from overcoming initial obstacles to getting a new project noticed to preparing completed films for launch at major international film festivals.
What's unique about WOLF is that we're hands-on designers, marketing consultants and international publicists all rolled into one, with an intimate knowledge of all the major festivals and markets. Our expertise and flexibility help directors, producers, sales agents and other partners around the world create effective strategies tailored to each project's needs, giving the film the best possible start on the way to finding its audience.
