Guerilla Wolves was a video club that ran at Saint Paul’s School in Covington, LA, from 2008 to 2018. It was created by Brad Guillory and his (then) current students Paul Dale and Josh Pereira. Hence the name, The Guerilla Wolves (stylized with one “r” instead of two), often utilized “run-and-gun” Guerilla filmmaking. The term was defined in the first episode of the series referring, “to a form of independent filmmaking characterized by low budgets, skeleton crews, and simple props using whatever is available.”

Segments like “Guerilla Wolves Movie News,” mini-documentaries such as “Greg Smith: The man Behind the WI-FI,” and coverage of major events like New Orleans Wizard World Con made Guerilla Wolves stand out at the time.
