AI-realized, human-written microdrama series ‘Spore Fall’ unveiled

Singapore-based studio Edenstone has unveiled ‘Spore Fall’, a human-written, AI-realized microdrama series.

The sci-fi project introduces a hybrid production model in which human-written scripts and stories are brought to life through AI-generated imagery, aimed at mobile-first audiences worldwide. Episodes are less than three minutes each.

Set in the fictional city of Lionara, the series centers on a disillusioned soldier and a rogue medic who are forced into an unlikely alliance after an infected man develops abilities that could accelerate human evolution – or herald the end of it. A deadly outbreak of spore pathogens serves as the backdrop, suppressed by an authoritarian regime.

Creator and showrunner Joel Boh said the project is designed to demonstrate that Singapore can compete on the global stage without major studio resources. “AI accelerates that journey, turning past limitations into our next creative frontier,” he said.

The series has tapped 2025 Golden Horse Award winner Chan Gin Kai, CEO of Silver Media Group, as executive producer. Chan’s investment platform, Silver Media Fund – regulated by the Monetary Authority of Singapore and managed by One Apex Capital – has also signed on to structure and lead a capital raise for the ‘Spore Fall’ franchise, with transmedia expansion into feature films, games and collectibles planned.

“It keeps storytelling human and uses AI as a tool to expand imagination,” Chan says of the project.

“Spore Fall” will launch between March and June as a free-to-view 10-episode vertical series on its website, TikTok, YouTube Shorts, Instagram Reels and select streaming partners. A feature film is planned for theatrical release in 2028, followed by a novel, games and Web3 collectibles.
