ABOUT THE FILMMAKERS
Andrew and Jessica have been making short films for the past fifteen years. Credits include the multi award winning MY GHOUL, LEAVE ME ALONE, COOK BOOK and the acclaimed documentary TOFU MAN, shot on a Samsung S2.
Originally from Canberra, Andrew worked for several years as an actor in the UK, playing challenging roles such as 'Mr. Bruce the Aussie Tourist' on The Basil Brush Show. He also produced the cult hit Australian comedy 'The Vegemite Tales' in London's West End before moving back to settle in Melbourne's Sunshine.
Jessica trained as an actor at the Drama Centre London before a successful television and stage career. Jessica comes from a long line of performers and directors in her family and she has combined her passion for the environment and performance through her children's book and theatre character 'Mrs Ticklebottom'.
Dog poo has a significant, underestimated impact on the environment. It does much more than just make your shoes dirty. We wanted to use the power of film without dialogue, and weave humour into a story that would strike a chord with adults and children alike.
