Projects

Complete Package
The Strays

A golden retriever escapes his suburban family and joins a stray dog pack. Two narratives run in parallel without converging. Children watch an adventure. Adults watch a grief drama. The same frames carry both.

Animated Series
Catalyst of Choice

The world's greatest competitive gamer enters an illegal high-stakes tournament out of curiosity — and forms his most honest relationship in years with the AI assigned to help him win.

Feature
The Coward

Renaissance Italy. A man loses everything simultaneously and opts out of the world entirely — until circumstance pulls him into a war he doesn't want, where thinking clearly turns out to be the most dangerous weapon anyone has.

Feature
Greatness

A boy is made ruler of a prehistoric tribe that doesn't want him. In a parallel register, heaven watches his rise with growing unease — what was written for him is no longer sufficient to contain what he's becoming.

Feature / Series
Mad Scientist

A film director making a fictional film about an obsessed scientist begins to lose the distance between himself and his subject. By the final act, the camera no longer knows whose madness it's recording.

Feature
Games of Fortune

A billionaire stages a series of juvenile competitions with a million-dollar prize, hoping to win back the friends his success drove away. He isn't buying a reunion. He's buying a verdict.

Feature / Series
Gaming Destiny

A gaming industry employee wins a trip to Goa, walks into a casino, and keeps winning — until a group of strangers invite him into games with no rulebook and no exit, and he begins to suspect the luck isn't luck.

Feature
Hidden Beats

A gifted DJ performs only behind a mask and a persona his manager built for him. When he decides to tell the person he loves who he actually is, the conflict that follows isn't about fame — it's about whether he knows the answer himself.
