America Down: The Proof of Concept introduces Jamie Davenport, a resilient 19-year-old navigating the brutal realities of a post-apocalyptic United States. Set in the gritty aftermath of a global pandemic that has decimated the population, this short film explores themes of loss, survival, purpose, and the struggle to overcome a painful past. Created as a fundraising tool, the proof of concept supports the development of the feature-length adaptation of America Down, based on the web series of the same name. Designed to demonstrate the production team's capabilities on a limited budget, the short emphasizes the tone, visual style, and narrative scope of the larger project - offering a powerful glimpse into a devastated America through the eyes of its young protagonist.

This Karate Kid sequel series picks up 30 years after the events of the 1984 All Valley Karate Tournament and finds Johnny Lawrence on the hunt for redemption by reopening the infamous Cobra Kai karate dojo. This reignites his old rivalry with the successful Daniel LaRusso, who has been working to maintain the balance in his life without mentor Mr. Miyagi.
