ABOUT US
Our names are Bardo and Jake, and together we are Good Wolf Films. We started making short documentaries a couple of years ago, and have since fallen in love with the process. After four years of sticking it out as freelance filmmakers in advertising, we've finally mustered up the courage to start our own business making cinematic wedding films, and we’re bringing our documentary process along with us.
OUR PROCESS
Our storytelling hinges heavily on rapport. We like to get close to our subjects and get to know the person beneath the surface. Weeks in advance, hours of recorded conversation are thoughtfully weaved into a cohesive narrative. On the field, we try to keep a low profile and rarely direct. What comes out is a story that’s both true and honest. We are committed to telling stories in this way.
We like to call it a portrait because that’s how it feels — a snapshot of people at a particular time in their lives — but it’s easier to show you than to tell you.
THE PROJECT
An impressive portfolio is essential for the kind of work we want to do, but with only one wedding under our belt, we need to build ours. We had offered to do the wedding film of our friends who believe in us immensely and are some of the most beautiful souls we know, but their wedding is to be held in Amsterdam, where one of them is from, making it quite expensive for us to be there.
Through this crowdfunding campaign, we hope to raise money for at least the production expenses like equipment, music licensing, visa requirements, and local transportation. Anything we receive in excess will help us shoulder living expenses like lodging and meals — which is still quite a big sum at about PHP 100,000 (on a tight budget) so we'd be grateful for any and all extra contributions!
REWARDS
Of course you'll get something in return for your support! We'll be shipping your rewards straight to your address anywhere in the Philippines when they're ready.
DISCOUNT VOUCHER
Our biggest backers can avail of discounts of up to 30% on our Wedding Portrait package. So if you're getting married and want a meaningful and different wedding film — or if you know someone who might — by all means, back us up and get a huge discount! It’s transferable and doesn’t expire.
But before you decide to back us, it would be best to check with us first if we're available on your preferred dates. Send us an email at bardo@goodwolffilms.com.
PERSONALIZED LEATHER TAGS
All our backers get these neat leather tags, made with love, by hand, by us. Yes, we'll be making them ourselves! We take pride in the amount of care we put into the work we do, down to the little things.
GOOD WOLF STICKERS
We'll even throw in these swanky, clear, matte-laminated stickers! For your laptop, your cellphone, your car — you name it! They're waterproof!
