ShadowForge Media LLC
ShadowForge Media is a multi-IP entertainment studio building stories, sports, and technology under one roof. We develop combat sports events, streaming experiences, children’s characters, film labels, review platforms, and wellness tech that all live inside the same connected universe.
Mission
Our mission is to build worlds that feel real enough to live in. We create stories, events, and tools that entertain, empower, and give people something to belong to — whether it’s a kid holding a ForgeyWorld plush, a fan watching a Forge Fight League card, or a family using AuraLink to better understand each other.
Vision
ShadowForge Media is built to be a studio where ideas move across mediums without getting watered down. A fighter’s story can become a series. A kids’ character can lead to songs, books, and interactive spaces. A piece of tech can start as a family tool and grow into a platform.
We’re not chasing trends. We’re building IP that can last — with clear values, strong characters, and room to grow over years, not weeks.

- Original streaming shows, creator content, and indie films

A quick overview of the core IPs under ShadowForge Media. Each one is built to stand on its own and connect to the larger universe.

A cinematic combat sports league focused on discipline, story, and community. Boxing, kickboxing, and MMA events streamed through Forge+.

Forge+
The streaming home for FFL events, original shows, and select indie films. Built for creators who want distribution with intention, not noise.

ForgeyWorld
A gentle, character-driven world for kids and parents. Plush toys, songs, and stories that teach empathy and resilience without talking down to anyone.

A film and TV review platform built on a clear “Hammer” rating system. Designed to cut through noise and highlight what’s actually worth watching.

AuraLink
Emotional-wellness technology that makes feelings visible. Wearables and a MoodWall hub that help families, students, and caregivers understand emotional states at a glance.
Wellness TechFounder
Daequan Winbush is the founder and CEO of ShadowForge Media. He leads both the creative and business strategy across the studio’s IPs — from Forge Fight League and 40RUM Films to ForgeyWorld and AuraLink.
His work centers on resilience, family, and survival — building stories and products for people who don’t usually see themselves at the center of the narrative.
