VR created over 20 original serialized series for 360-degree video in 2016, and has partnered with PodcastOne, Oklahoma State University, and Disney to create immersive content. In January 2017, Neil Mandt and MANDT VR, alongside partner PodcastOne, finalized a deal with Forbes to produce 40 episodes of serialized content. Also in January 2017, Neil and MANDT VR formed a partnership with the Pittsburgh Steelers to create a series of videos in which viewers will be immersed in "stories and traditions that provide an all-access pass to one of the best game day experiences in the NFL." In April 2017, Neil and MANDT VR announced a partnership with College Football Playoff to create a series of videos showcasing the 2017 College Football Playoff National Championship. As the summer of 2017 drew to a close, IndyCar announced that the league would be partnering with MANDT VR to create both AR and VR content for the racing series. In March 2018, Neil's feature film producing efforts were rewarded with a theatrical release, as his latest efforts hit the big screen. Mandt's collaboration with writer/director Adam Rifkin, on what would be Burt Reynolds last significant starring role in a movie, The Last Movie Star, was picked up for a worldwide release. The project debuted the previous spring at the Tribeca Film Festival and was subsequently purchased by the indie studio A24 in a bidding war. The movie has since received acclaim. The movie featured the original song "To Get Here," written by 8 time Oscar Nominee Diane Warren and was performed by country legend Willie Nelson. Later in the spring of 2018 Mandt collected his first Clio Award for the 360° video production of The Road to the Super Bowl, starring the Philadelphia Eagles. The project gave viewers unprecedented access to the NFL's top team through immersive media. On the night before the 2018 midterm elections Neil was tasked with executive producing and showrun the star studded Telethon for America event, which was streamed live across social channels for Ellen, Comedy Central, MTV and BET, amongst others. The non-partisan project was backed by Michelle Obama's organization When We All Vote and featured Charlize Theron, Natalie Portman, Jane Fonda, Pete Davidson, Jessica Alba, Dr. Phil, Chelsea Handler, Judd Apatow, Debra Messing, Sean Hayes, Tyler Oakley, Larry King and Amy Schumer, amongst others. The show was hosted by Ben Gleib and Olivia Munn. On January 10,
