Frank Woodward

Upon graduating from Temple University's film school, Frank discovered that, although he could use phrases like "mise en scene" in mixed company, he hadn't learned much about making films (film schools are hardly the place for such things).

After dabbling in local Philadelphia music videos and PSAs, Frank knew he had to move to the Hollywood trenches for some real learning. For fifteen years, he crewed on such films and TV series as RESERVOIR DOGS (1992), MAN ON THE MOON (1999), "MELROSE PLACE" (1992) and "CHARMED" (1998).

His short film, BODY ELECTRIC (2004), was an official selection of the 2004 Cinequest On Line Viewers Voice Awards, the 2004 St. Louis International Film Festival, the 2004 Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival and Shockerfest 2004 Film Festival.

In 2005, Frank began producing DVD bonus features for Anchor Bay Entertainment. He was honored to write, produce and direct “WORKING WITH A MASTER” for the MASTERS OF HORROR Season One DVD series. Each of the 12 featurettes focused on the careers of such horror luminaries as Stuart Gordon, John Carpenter, John Landis, Mick Garris... as told by the people they worked with.

Recently, Frank formed Wyrd with partners William Janczewski and James B. Myers. Together they completed production of a documentary on H.P. LOVECRAFT. The film features interviews with Peter Straub, Neil Gaiman, Guillermo Del Toro, John Carpenter, Stuart Gordon, Caitlin Kiernan, Ramsey Campbell, and others who were inspired by the father of modern horror fiction.

LOVECRAFT: FEAR OF THE UNKNOWN is an official selection of the 2008 Comic-Con International Independent Film Festival.
