About Us

Behind Dolphin Dude is a passionate team of storytellers, animators, educators, and ocean lovers on a mission to make caring cool! Blending creativity with purpose, we’re using character-driven storytelling to spark curiosity, inspire action, and connect kids to the ocean in a whole new way. We're not just telling a story, we're building a movement.

OUR 3 KEY PILLARS

COMMUNITY

Community building is at the heart of Dolphin Dude because real change happens when we come together. This film isn’t just about saving the ocean, it’s about empowering kids, families, and communities to take action together. By involving youth, educators, and local artists in the storytelling process, Dolphin Dude shows that everyone has a role to play and that protecting our planet is a team effort. When we build strong, connected communities, we create waves of impact that ripple far beyond the shore.

IMPACT

We’re not just creating content, we’re championing a movement. Every scene, every character, and every laugh is rooted in a deeper mission: to spark real-world change. We’re proud to support and spotlight organizations doing the hard work on the ground; fighting plastic pollution, protecting marine life, and empowering youth. Through partnerships and storytelling, Dolphin Dude transforms entertainment into action, proving that advocacy can be vibrant, bold, and wildly fun.

Just like Smokey the Bear is the face of wildfire prevention, Dolphin Dude is your go-to mascot for ocean conservation. Our goal is to become the go-to resource for marine science education, making complex issues like plastic pollution, coral bleaching, and overfishing easy to understand and exciting to explore. Through classroom toolkits, fun facts, and interactive content, we’re helping kids (and kids-at-heart) dive deeper into ocean conservation, because knowledge is the first step to making waves.
