Lone Photographer (2026)

40 min episodes   |   English   |  Z.W. Amundson

With the world's economy at it's low after the pandemic, SILK, an aspiring fashion designer, rose to prominence by designing a line of clothing that was practical and usable but lacked an artistic approach. Having risen to power and created an empire, she has taken hold of the city's artists, commissioning them to create "marketable" art for profit alone, creativity all but gone.

 

Our story picks up with Silk at the height of her influence and the future of true artistic expression about to slip away forever.


OTTO "ONE SHOT" WEST, a renowned photographer, known for never missing a shot, returns to NYC to take part in a photography competition. 

His challenger? A young photographer named LARA "BURST" WAN. Both Oto and Burst will find themselves tasked with trying to capture a photograph revealing the identity of an anonymous vigilante artist simply called, "The Artist with No Name."
 

As our story unfolds, West and Burst will have to navigate the twists and turns that the dark New York City throws their way while banding together, if they are ever going to save the soul of art.
