An original short film
Esther Jackson's Good Trouble
Fall 2026
Ok, about the name
Derp Dog came to be as a tribute to my
toothless and tongue slagging Chihuahua
who was often greeted by friends, family,
and strangers with a friendly “Hey, Derp!”
Why we exist
Derp Dog Films is dedicated to creating original feature and editorial content that addresses the social issues of our day, often with a splash of historical perspective intertwined. We are equally dedicated to providing work, and talent development opportunities for marginalized populations looking to tell their own stories a rapidly changing media industry.
Some might accuse Derp Dog of being woke. Our answer is simple – you betcha.
