Help Bring The BYND to Life – A High-Octane Sci-Fi Action Fi

Hey there! I’m Asua, a commercial film director diving into a passion project that’s been a labor of love for some time. I’m creating a Porsche spec ad that doubles as the pilot for a full-length feature film I envision for the future. This project blends cinematic storytelling, cutting-edge VFX, action-packed fight choreography, and high-performance cars into one epic production.

Meet the Team

I’ve teamed up with some of the best in the industry:

Ross Metcalf – Our award-winning cinematographer, known for his work on the Netflix film I AM MOTHER starring Hilary Swank.

Kelvin Taylor – Our lead actor, a New Zealand-American performer with a diverse background in film, TV, modeling, voice-over work, and dance.

Why This Project Matters

I’ve always dreamed of directing automotive commercials, but I also want to create something that pushes the boundaries of action and sci-fi filmmaking. This isn’t just a car commercial—it’s a visually stunning, high-energy film featuring practical effects, immersive storytelling, and expert stunt choreography. Once complete, I plan to submit it to the Motor Film Awards—the Oscars for car ads.

Why We Need Your Support

Producing a cinematic car commercial is no small feat—it requires high-speed camera rigs, precision stunt choreography, VFX, and top-tier post-production. My team and I have already self-funded the high-octane car sequences in Queenstown, New Zealand, but now, we need your help to complete the final action-packed combat scene in Vietnam.

Where Your Support Goes

The Story – An Immortal Warrior’s Journey

At its core, The BYND follows an immortal warrior on a relentless pursuit of transcendence. He’s witnessed the rise and fall of civilizations, fought in countless battles, and lived through generations—all in search of something just beyond his grasp.

His driving force? A Porsche. The car represents his unwavering determination and the ultimate test of endurance.

⚔️ His inspiration? Yasuke, the first Black samurai. He undergoes brutal training and mind-bending simulations, preparing for an unknown but inevitable confrontation.
