Downfall

Epic fantasy. Eternal hope.

Follow ordinary heroes who discover redemption in their darkest hour-brought to life by a prayer-powered team of Christian creatives.

From Novel to Animation

Christian author Caleb Ward wrote Downfall to wrestle honestly with doubt, hope, and the messy process of following Jesus. Now, in partnership with Divine Creative Ministries, his pages are leaping off the paper-scene by scene-into a fully animated series that will reach audiences who might never pick up a book but will gladly binge an adventure.

Why We're Making Downfall

Discipleship Through Story

Jesus used parables; we use pixels. Every episode invites viewers to wrestle with grace, redemption, and hope, then points them back to Scripture and community.

Creative Mentorship

The production doubles as a discipleship lab. Animators, writers, and sound designers meet weekly to pray, learn, and sharpen one another as much as their craft.

Global Reach, Startup Budget

We're not Disney-so we lean on faith, open-source tools, and a worldwide volunteer team God keeps knitting together.

Glimpses of Downfall

A warning etched in the ground before a skeleton.

A Perilous Path

Not all who wander are found. The world of Downfall is beautiful, but fraught with danger and echoes of the past.

A glowing, fiery staff.

The Spark of Creation

Power can be used to build or to break. Artifacts of old hold temptations and opportunities for the characters.

A Moment of Wonder

Amidst the conflict, moments of awe and divine encounter will shape the journey of our heroes.
