RE: Please Advise me: how can a successful film director use blockchain and social media to raise finance and/or seed interest for the next film?
Your idea is brand new, so expect resistance. The most important thing is a vision. Do you have a vision? Pursue it, with or without blockchain at this stage.... followed ya
Thanks the film has a strong vision and we are putting together a plan to raise finance in a conventional manner. It is just me who wondered whether any of the financing could be raised in an innovative way via ICO/blockchain and what that might mean. Thank you for reminding me though that even asking the question about doing something new will meet with resistance and not to be discouraged by that as I seek out ideas. I'm open to finding a good idea - or backing off and realising that however powerful blockchain is it might not be the best approach for this particular initiative. Right now I'm just exploring the options.
Personally I am a strong supporter of new innovation like yours. I am new to this crypto world. I bought my 1st crypto coins on April 2017. I am impressed. I think blockchain is the thing to go in the near future. When I read your posting I was seeing something new already. So please don't ever get discouraged. Please never....ever give up.
@katythompson I've heard this so many times film has strong vision.... I've worked on numbers of film sets. What film, who is directing it ? What gear will be used? Is it feature or short.... Does it have full script ? What is budget aim ?
Thanks @mynewlife. I'm not ready to divulge that information yet but obviously will do once we are ready to start financing in a few weeks. The first phase of financing will get the screenplay written. the second phase of financing will be for production. The film director has just made a successful 5m pound film (cost to make) that has just started general release and is expected to make a profit. The purpose of my questions here are simply around whether and how blockchian/ICO could be used for film financing - and if so how - assuming someone had a robust idea for a film in the first place which as you point out is an important pre-requisite. The proposed new film would be a feature film not a short and would go to cinema, DVD, streaming etc.
