Spokkz: Community-Powered Film & TV Blockchain Ecosystem

in #spokkz6 years ago (edited)

Filmmaking today is one major aspect of the world’s economy that cannot be neglected. The industry is generating a lot of funds and it has been projected to be more in coming years. Despite the fact that the film industry is one of the top industries in the entertainment market today, it is plagued with so many deficiencies which need quick attention.

Gathering Funds

A film writer may have the best story, but without funds to execute or get the story to be acted, it is as good as nothing. There are great movies that never get passed the set because they lack funds. There are great movie series that are never concluded because they lack the fund to do so. Yet there are viewers who wished to help these movies up but are unable because they do not know how to.

Sure there are private investors who helps movie writers with fund to execute their projects, but over the times there has been a disconnect as the larger percentage of the profits has been taken by intermediaries leaving the brain behind the project with crumbs.

Intermediaries

Cinemas, YouTube, etc. are usually given the rights to showcase a new movie after it has been produced according to the agreements between the producer and these intermediaries. Many of the times these intermediaries take the lion share of the profits from these movies leaving the brains behind the project with crumbs. These intermediaries are a necessary evil as any new movie seeking great visibility must consult them. They have records of great reach so filmmakers cannot do without them. So it may be right to say that filmmakers just have to succumb to eating crumbs while the intermediaries take the lion share.

On the platform, token holders will be able to search for and help contribute to movies or projects of their choice.

Spuul will also help out by giving content creators tokens to make their movies. This will surely help filmmakers or producers, not just this when the project goes live, all contributors will earn for life as the project makes a wave.

Visibility Solved

Content creators/Film Makers will be able to get pledges from their viewers to watch their content for a discounted charge. This means that a viewer can commit to watching a content for a discount. This will help both the creator and the viewer to be incentivized. On the platform, viewers also get paid in spokkz token for sharing a content. This helps form more visibility of the content.
