We're a group of 9 emerging filmmakers based in Wellington. We are wanting to create an effective, punchy horror short by November this year. We've created Guard Dog Films because we all have a passion for horror.
We're all completing our final year of a Bachelor's in Creative Media Production at Massey University. We're really hoping that making this film will help us launch into the local film industry here in Wellington!
The team is:
Jess Soderberg - Producer
Nikolai Puharich - Director
Liam McKee - 1st AD
Matthew Canlas - Writer / Editor
Finn Holland - Cinematographer
Josh Wilson - VFX
Tristan Wilson - Sound
Harry Ruffino & Alexandra La Rooij - Art Department

Arts in the MediaJoshua Prendeville: Building an Audience on Boosted
Accomplished Filmmaker Joshua Prendeville first came to Boosted in order to help with funding his 2024 Film 'The House Within,' documenting the life and work of 2026 Katherine Mansfield Menton Fellow Dame Fiona Kidman. Since then he has gone on to direct an adaptation of Katherine Mansfield's 'The Garden Party,' that was also funded in part through Boosted. His latest project is 'Earthly Shadows,' a short film adaptation of the award-winning story by Fiona Kidman. For Joshua, Boosted has become a more than just a funding avenue, it's a way to bring his audience onboard at the start of a film's journey and bring that crowd along with him. Joshua was kind enough to share with us his experiences and lessons learned from growing his audience on Boosted, and how he aims to bring them on a journey with his latest project, 'Earthly Shadows.'18 May 2026 -
