This film explores "Meet the Team" pages at a variety of different video and advertising companies. Every team has a diverse representation of dogs on their profile, but no black people. AFFURMATIVE ACTION asks the question, "How far have we really come?"
AFFURMATIVE ACTION will play virtually before the features HIVE and THE REUNITED STATES
Insightful, honest, and wickedly clever, each moment in Travis Wood’s work is purposeful and packs a punch. He experiments with storytelling in its many forms, utilizing the power of truth to guide his process. His films often ride the line between fiction and non-fiction using a hybrid of animation and live-action. The filmmaker hails from Minneapolis and currently resides in Brooklyn. His short films have been selected for multiple Vimeo Staff Picks, SXSW, Rooftop Films, an NY EMMY award, and featured on NoBudge, Booooooom, and Directors Notes.
