“DON’T BE RAW.”
TWIG is a coming-of-age comedy short film centered on a determined 10-year-old boy who stumbles into a chaotic, foul-mouthed group of older skaters at a suburban skatepark. Struggling to land even the simplest trick, he yearns to prove himself. As he attempts to drop into the skate park pool, he develops a bond with Yoda, a sarcastic but wise skater hiding his own troubled past. With new friendships, he pushes past his limits and finds something more important than greatness.
TWIG was shot on location in Orlando, Florida at the Ocoee Action Skate Park. Principal photography spanned three days with a crew of fewer than 15 people. It is the debut short film from Drop In Productions.
