International star Bai Ling @iambailing on Emergence 2028 - how we (Ian Kane & Dreamflight Entertainment @iankanedreamflight + Matt Taff @act_break) first crossed paths and why she decided to become part of the film. She talks about the passion and persistence she saw in me, Ian Kane, and our team from the beginning, and the drive, faith and belief it takes to keep pushing a project like this forward. She also mentions stepping onto our set for the first time and being impressed by the professionalism of the production and crew.
And then there’s Savina.
Bai describes her as powerful and mysterious, which is exactly the presence I wanted when I created the character. Savina moves through Emergence 2028 with her own agenda, and Bai brought an unpredictability to her that fits this world perfectly. As she says in the clip, part of what excites her about the film is that you don’t know where it’s going or what’s going to happen next.
We’re now nearing the end of post-production, with the screening copy getting closer and potential distributors already expressing strong interest (Follow us on our new https://www.tiktok.com/@emergence2028official )
After everything it took to get here, we’re still pushing toward the finish.

Welcome to Sector 17. As Drakken (Daeg Faerch @greatdaegofficial — “Halloween,” “Euphoria”) wraps a gritty scene of his own, we push deeper into the Dregsprawl, where the Golden Swallow comes alive after dark — an underground club just outside the guarded walls of the Core City, where fixers, mercs — and other underworld types with no good reason to use their real names — all cross paths.
Bannon (Matt Taff @act_break) swaggers in while Savina (Bai Ling @iambailing — “The Crow,” “Red Corner”) escorts a VIP through the crowd and arms dealer Sidestreet (Patrik Simpson @patriksimpson) and model boy Gabriel (Pol Atteu @polatteu) mingle with the local denizens. It all looks casual enough, right up until the night takes a turn that will never make the official report.
We’re nearing the end of VFX on Emergence 2028 @emergence2028 , with final color grading and sound up next before the private screening cut is ready! #director #writer #producer Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight & Dreamflight Entertainment

We’re officially nearing the completion of Emergence 2028.
When writer/director Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight created these characters years ago, he always pictured them as part of a larger world, not just moving from scene to scene. The funky streets had to have some history breathed into them, the industrial zones needed to feel used and half-forgotten, with the corporate towers belonging to a completely different class of people looking down on all of it. That’s something we’ve been able to build out much more in post, with not just one, but two #vfx artists fleshing out the atmosphere while Matt Taff @act_break keeps assembling everything thrown his way.
In this scene, operative Violet Keeling (Southie Ballantyne @justsouthie) checks in with biotech boss Revik (Sean Rogers @srogers_that) (The Flash), high above the city and far removed from what’s happening down on the streets. #upcoming #cyberpunk #action thriller indiefilm

Matt Taff @act_break and myself, glorious leader Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight ran into Tom Malloy @tommalloy, COO of Studio Dome (formerly Glass House Film Distribution), again at the same Sherman Oaks spot where we’d met at James Bressack’s @jamescullenb distribution event. Funny how often the same people cross paths in this business. Turns out we’ve also got martial arts in common. He trains Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, which I studied as well. Always cool finding people in the film world who also have a martial arts background. Shout-out to #jamesbressack for putting that event together. #positivevibes #filmmaking #martialarts Emergence 2028

Bullit (Dru Gash @dru_gash) owns the airwaves, smiling through the venom he spits. Sheepdog (Paul Logan @paullogan88) has relocated since their recent violent encounter, but the war between them hasn’t moved an inch. And what comes next changes the game. #upcoming #cyberpunk #action #thriller writer director creator @iankane producer editor @act_break

This year has been transformative in ways I didn’t expect. We finished shooting Emergence 2028, which is now in post-production, and met some great film distribution folks. I’ve also started writing a new prequel novel series, Emergence 2028: Black Web, which is opening up a whole other side of this gritty world.
One of the biggest changes has been filtering what I let into my life. Since there’s enough anger, cynicism and negativity coming at us every day, I’ve been making more room for things that are funny, hopeful, or just make me feel good. And yes, I’m a grown ass man who just watched Paw Patrol (you may have spotted the poster behind me) and thoroughly enjoyed it. After all, what we consume affects us.
Lots of great stuff ahead. Just enjoying the ride. - Ian

Repost from @emergence2028: Zero backup and no margin for error in Sector 17. Here’s a raw look at the team pushing forward as Sheepdog (Paul Logan @paullogan88) paints the forward street using his HUD scanner, sweeping the perimeter before ISI squadmates Pilum (Anthony Preston @anthonywpreston) and Mickey “Sparrow” Vexx (Paris Dylan @parisdylan) step onto open pavement. The squad moves fast and methodical toward a suspected trafficking hub before they get detected. Matt Taff @act_break (who is also editing) and I (Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight) are pumped with how the cut is shaping up, and as we can see here, the VFX are coming along nicely. #cyberpunk #action #thriller #indiefilm #comingsoon postproduction

Writer/Producer/Director Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight has been locked in a writing frenzy lately (in the lab) and can finally pull back the curtain on his latest project: Emergence 2028: Black Web Book 1 – Courier Zero.

Black Web is a prequel novel series that dives back into the original world alongside the characters Kane created. The main Emergence 2028 feature remains deep in post-production as the team works through VFX and final editing, with plans to align the book’s release with the film’s timetable.

Kane’s writing has advanced considerably during the process, and this first novel gives him the space to expose more of the universe’s underground lore, back-channel networks, and hidden history.

Cover mockup shown. Final artwork and design are still in development.

On set with Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight (Ian Kane & Dreamflight Entertainment), writer, producer, director, and creator of the cyberpunk action thriller Emergence 2028 @emergence2028, alongside producer Matt Taff @act_break.
DP Mitch Parks @davidmitchparks and actor Daeg Faerch @greatdaegofficial were also there, waiting on their cues while we worked through the scene. Sometimes there’s one shot to get and five fires to put out first.
Good people, long day, real #indiefilm work.

Emergence 2028 writer/producer/director Ian Kane @iankanedreamflight having a good night at James Bressack’s @jamescullenb industry mixer in #shermanoaks with actor #MichaelGaglio and producer Matt Taff @act_break. Repping the E2028 shirt, which got a lot of love. Michael brought great energy, and James is always a cool host. #mixer #filmindustry
