proof of concept SHORT FILM for series

ANIMAL LOVERS

 "Animals are not always man’s best friend"

Tap Dance Productions/Random Road Films is honored to have The Center for Arts and Learning fiscally sponsor our Proof of Concept (POC) short film - designed as a teaser for our new dark comedy series: ANIMAL LOVERS. This donation page is for those who would like to help us make this film and support its powerful message against the inhumane treatment of animals. Your generous donations will go towards: cast & crew, travel/lodging, transportation, equipment, production, insurance, locations & post-production.

ANIMAL LOVERS adds a LITTLE MISS SUNSHINE, FARGO and UNFORGIVEN to deliver a story with heart and awareness to animal cruelty when two animal lovers plot a pooch's revenge and become targets of a sinister operation. Never was this more perfectly illustrated than at the 1963 Bronx Zoo exhibit where they set up a mirror for people to look into with only one sentence above the mirror "The most dangerous animal in the world".

We're already in pre-production and start filming in early 2026 with screenwriter/producer, Gina Suzanne Renzi as director & co-writer/producer, Jude Hawkens as cinematographer along with our dedicated & talented cast and crew. 

If you love storytelling and filmmaking as much as we do, help us bring this exciting and creative new project onto the screen. Please donate today. Help us shine a light on animal injustice and let's make a difference together!
