Portal A has revealed nine projects it is developing as part of its $500,000 investment in experimental content. The digital-savvy production company is backing an eclectic mix of digital programs through the Moonshots program it introduced this past February.
Several of the projects in the Portal A slate will utilize emerging technologies like AI and short-form video. Nightmare Fuel, for example, is a TikTok series that will combine horror stories with AI-generated audio and visuals.
By embracing experimentation, Portal A’s Moonshots unit is taking the company “back to its innovative roots,” according to Portal A Director of Original Projects Jacob Motz. As the leader of the Moonshots program, Motz is looking to recapture the core values of a company that once produced global video game contests, upside-down cooking tutorials and shot-for-shot remakes of Abba music videos. (Portal A also produced the year-end Rewind videos alongside YouTube.)

Portal A is committing $500,000 in funding to five indie content projects this year through its Moonshots program.
Moonshots first launched in 2018 as a way for Portal A to find, fund, and produce innovative projects anchored by digital-native talent. The program’s first round of projects included pilots and social video experiments from creators including Alexis G. Zall and Mike Diva.
Producing Zall’s comedy/horror YouTube series Maybe Today, Satan as part of Moonshots “opened the door for Portal A at forward-thinking short-form platforms like Snap Originals,” Portal A tells Tubefilter.
First-round projects also included American Pathogen, a 30-minute documentary about the Trump administration’s response to Covid; The Adventures of Nunchuk Larry, an “off-the-wall action film” made in partnership with longtime YouTube creators The Gregory Brothers; and Robu, an award-winning short film directed by Portal A’s co-founder Kai Hasson.

Directed by Sean Dunne, Cam Girlz is a documentary film that enters the world of internet sex workers who find economic freedom, empowerment, intimacy and creative self-expression from the comfort of their own homes. Dunne is an accomplished documentarian. His first feature, Oxyana, which explored the devastating effects of Oxycontin on a small town, premiered at the 2013 Tribeca Film Festival, where the filmmaker won the Best New Documentary Director award.
“I had been yearning to make a film about women that challenge the establishment,” Dunne told Medium.com. “During the making of Oxyana I remember being curious about the lives of the women who you see in those pop ups while you’re watching porn. Real women broadcasting from their bedrooms. Who were they? What were they like? How did they end up doing this? I did some research and stumbled into this fascinating online community of women who did...

A large portion of our population has thankfully grown past the phase of only wearing bracelets to feel like we are agents of change in our world or society.

Having had its premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival in April, Sean Dunne's "Oxyana" will be taking the self-distribution route and will be made available for digital rental or download on oxyana.com starting July 1st. The documentary is the feature-length debut from the "American Juggalo" filmmaker, who won the prize for Best New Documentary Director at Tribeca. The film looks at the coal mining town of Oceana, West Virginia, which is currently being ravaged by Oxycontin addiction, exploring the prescription pill epidemic through interviews with the residents. "I was thinking a lot about 'Harlan County, USA' by Barbra Koppel and 'Vernon, Florida' by Errol Morris when we decided to make this film," Dunne told Indiewire ahead of the film's Tribeca debut. Take a look at the trailer below:...

Oxyana is not a story about redemption. The feature-length documentary from director Sean Dunne, who brought us the most revealing look at a maligned subculture with his mini-doc, American Juggalo, is just about as bleak as it gets. With content this heavy, Oxyana might have been in danger of feeling preachy, melodramatic, or even agenda-driven, if put in the hands of a lesser filmmaker. However, as he did with Juggalo, Dunne lends a truly objective yet compassionate eye to the proceedings, allowing his subjects to speak for themselves. The self-portrait they paint is stunning, harsh, evocative, and, at the risk of sounding cynical, nearly devoid of hope. Oceana, West Virginia is a coal-mining town in the Appalachian Mountains. It's a tiny place with a small,...

Oceana, a small coal mining town in Wyoming County, West Virginia, is, on the surface, like any other small town in Appalachia. An hour away from almost any major city, and with an approximate population of 1,400, it’s small, close-knit and not necessarily very open to outsiders. But quietly simmering underneath the surface of this municipality, an insidious epidemic is growing; a scourge of OxyContin and prescription pills that has devastated the town and given it the unfortunate nickname of “Oxyana.” Directed by Sean Dunne (the helmer behind Emmy-nominated documentary short “The Archive” and the Insane Clown Posse Juggalos documentary “American Juggalo”), “Oxyana” is a gripping and sometimes hard-to-watch portrait of this struggling township under siege by a drug epidemic. Dispassionate in the best sense of the word, “Oxyana” is respectful to the point of being detached. Aside from some hauntingly broken down music by members of Deer Tick (which resembles the wailing.

Oxyana
USA, 2013
Directed by Sean Dunne
The abuse of prescription drugs, particularly Oxycontin and related medications, has reached epidemic status in many rural American communities, but nowhere is it worse than the Oceana section of West Virginia, nicknamed “Oxyana” by the residents. Oceana’s levels of drug abuse are so high that at one point during Sean Dunne’s new documentary Oxyana, a doctor claims that an entire generation of residents has become lost – even those who do not die may never have a valuable contribution to society. Oxyana mourns for that generation, but at the same time it has very little to say beyond documenting the existence of the epidemic.
The film is composed almost entirely of interviews with Oceana residents, and the problem with that is very simple: they aren’t able to describe the problem on anything bigger than a personal level. The refrain that is returned...

Anyone who has ever visited -- or, more likely, driven through -- West Virginia has experienced its breathtaking natural beauty. Unfortunately, human life in this part of the country is not nearly as idyllic. With a local economy that has been stuck in a catatonic state ever since the death of the coal mining industry, the black market demand of prescription medications is one of the only money-making opportunities in the financially-ravaged area. More West Virginians are on prescription medication than any other state; it should also come as no surprise that West Virginia also boasts the highest rate of prescription overdoses in the United States. Sean Dunne's Oxyana focuses on the quaint coal mining town of Oceana, a microcosm of the prescription drug epidemic in West Virginia. A wide-variety of very forthcoming interviewees present us with a rather complete picture of the staggering reality. Nearly an entire generation...

When people describe Oceana of ten years ago, they describe an idealistic small town--"kind of like the 50s," says one man interviewed in Sean Dunne's first feature documentary "Oxyana." People in the town of 1,400 used to keep doors unlocked and let children play freely in the streets. Now, people are afraid to walk alone in a residential neighborhood. Locked doors don't prevent break-ins from people "trying to feed addictions." People have nicknamed the town Oxyana, after oxycontin, the drug that has addicted hundreds and taken countless lives in the West Virginia town. With "Oxyana," director Sean Dunne, who was nominated for an Emmy for 2011's "The Archive," has created a sensitive, powerful, and important account of a particularly dark moment in a quiet American town. Why did Dunne call his documentary after the nickname rather than the town's actual name? "It's set in Oceana but to me Oxyana is not Oceana.

Oceana, West Virginia used to thrive via the coal mining industry. It was a town where you could leave your door open to your house overnight and wake up knowing you were safe. Then things changed as the coal business began to decline. In response, the town eventually became the epicenter for Oxycontin abuse, resulting in a population largely of addicts. As doctors over-prescribed the drug, an industry was born when the only viable way to make money outside of the coal industry was to deal Oxy. Director Sean Dunne’s visceral documentary Oxyana, what many have nicknamed the town, is composed of a series of interviews with Oceana inhabitants – the overwhelming majority of them addicted to Oxy – and it doesn’t shy away from anything. Addicts of all ages are filmed snorting and injecting Oxy, they are filmed getting high, they are filmed coming down. They’re filmed smoking cigarettes inches away from their babies’ faces...

Now Dunne has broadened his focus and made his debut feature, Oxyana, which zeroes in on the town of Oceana, …...

For some years now, I have been a big fan of the work of Sean Dunne, whose shortform documentaries are not only intelligent and compassionate but also visually accomplished and highly cinematic. Anyone looking to get a sense of Dunne’s talent should check out The Archive, his 2008 debut, or American Juggalo, which he put out last year. (To see all of his work, go to Dunne’s Vimeo page.)
Given my admiration for his shorts, I was very excited yesterday to receive an email from Dunne about the new project he’s working on: Oxyana, his debut feature. He wrote, “I truly believe in the power of good filmmaking. It can make a real difference, I’ve seen that with my other films. I think this is an important film and one that will entertain and enlighten.”
