We bring to life entertaining, believable film
s that provoke social change, compassion, and hope. WARD SERRILL
Ward Serrill is an award-winning director whose last feature was released by Disney/Miramax to wide critical acclaim (The Heart of the Game) which Ebert And Roeper called, “An Oscar-level piece of work.”
He has created more than 90 short films including Building One House with Robert Redford, and Wild America with Sissy Spacek. His work has appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show and been reviewed by Jay Leno, Good Morning America, People Magazine, USA Today, The New York Times, Rolling Stone, and many others.

Sophie worked in the world of non-profit marketing and communications in the UK before deciding to flee for the hills and become a Yogini in Thailand. There her plans for diving headfirst into the rapture were foiled when she met the love of her life, Ward, who invited her to Seattle. In Woody Creek’s vision, Sophie’s passion for story, the protection of the environment and social change meet, and she is delighted to serve as Producer and all round Trickster-in-charge of communications for Song of the New Earth, TreeStory and Catching Fire.

OUR NAMESAKE
Woody the Dog was the most famous canine in Ketchikan, Alaska. He even hosted his own radio show, Chew the Bone with Dr. Woody, where he dished out poignant and cosmic advice to problem pets and the people who lived with them. Woody was my medicine wheel for seven years. Then one day he wandered into the Alaska woods, never to be seen again. He was a great sage and a clown prince of dogs.
