In the vein of classic ‘80s family movies Short Circuit and Flight of the Navigator, AXL is a new adventure about a down-on-his luck teenage bike rider, Miles (Alex Neustaedter), who stumbles upon an advanced, robotic, military dog named AXL. Endowed with next-generation artificial intelligence but with the heart of a dog, AXL forms an emotional bond with Miles, much to the chagrin of the rogue military scientists who created AXL and would do anything to retrieve him. Knowing what is at stake if AXL gets captured, Miles teams up with his smart, resourceful crush, Sara (Becky G), to protect his new best friend on a timeless, epic adventure for the whole family.

Not all young filmmakers learn the craft of moviemaking the same way. While most attend film schools or gain experience by apprenticing on movie sets, some take a less traditional approach. For Oliver Daly, the journey to writing and directing his debut feature AXL began in the unlikely world of high-tech medical science.

“I always wanted to get into movies, and I started when I was a kid,” says Daly. “But instead of experimenting with a camera and actors, I used a computer to create 3D animations. That became a passion of mine, and I started doing freelance work, not in the entertainment industry, but in the biomedical and scientific world.”

Utilizing cutting-edge 3D graphics, Daly animated advanced medical technologies, including implantable devices like heart pacemakers. “Before long, however, I started to get an itch to create my own original stories on film.”

A lifelong fan of the science-fiction genre, Daly took his knowledge of computer animation and began to develop a short film dealing with themes relating to humanity and technology. “In a roundabout way, those early 3D animations informed my narrative film work, since they’re the closest you can get to science fiction in a non-fiction world.”

The result was a seven-minute short film called Miles, about a teenage motocross rider who encounters a sophisticated dog-like robot in the California desert. “When I conceived of the story,” Daly recalls, “I was thinking about early sci-fi monster movies, like Frankenstein and The Island of Lost Souls, where a creature is created by a scientist as a power grab, or by the military as a way to control other people. Those films show us that humans are sometimes the real monsters, and the monster is just a reflection of our own fears and greed.”

Setting the film in the rough and tumble world of off-road motorcycle racing, known as motocross, was a way for Daly to inject even more excitement into the material. “I knew I wanted to make something that moved fast and could keep up with the concepts I had in mind,” he says. “I decided on motocross because it combines so many different juxtapositions. You have neon and dirt. You have incredible mountains and landscapes. Plus, it’s a very family-oriented sport, though it can be dangerous as well.”

Combining live-action footage and impressive CG effects, Miles debuted online on January 10, 2015, and quickly generated interest from Hollywood. Producers David Goyer and Kevin Turen of Phantom Four Films optioned the project and helped Daly develop a feature-length script that expanded the story and the action.

Lakeshore and Global Road Step Up
Both the short film and the feature-adaptation script were eventually passed along to Oscar®-winning producer and Lakeshore Entertainment Chief Executive Officer Tom Rosenberg, who saw how special the material was. “Oliver’s short was extremely well made, and when I read the script I knew we had a movie,” says Rosenberg. “Also, David Goyer’s involvement was very important because he’s such a well-respected writer and producer and we liked him very much. He’s quite an asset.”
