Caroline Bickle
Writer/Producer Dog N’ Fun Productions
Caroline’s journey into television and film production began through her son, Marcus, when he chose to pursue a career in acting. Inspired by the industry and fascinated by the creative process, she decided to forge her own path in film production.
Starting in an entry-level role gave Caroline valuable hands-on experience and a strong understanding of the business side of the industry. Most recently, she has had the opportunity to work in the Locations Department alongside a talented and supportive team whose encouragement inspired her to finally put pen to paper and write the horror screenplay she had always envisioned.
Now stepping into the role of Writer/Producer, Caroline is excited to bring her creative vision to life and looks forward to the next chapter of her filmmaking journey.
