Filmgrid - is a peer to peer technological solution for commerce
Filmgrid is an ideological project, seeking to create a redundant platform that provides a fair innovative alternative to movie business; removing intermediaries from the creative and producing processes.
A place where independent filmmakers and viewers can interact in order to create better movies with richer content and true artistic freedom. The application will offer the services needed for this to be possible:
The Billboard. A movie marketplace where creative users may offer their movies, and viewer users can buy them and stream them.
The Pitchboard. A podium where film projects can seek funding either by obtaining it from the Filmgrid’s production fund, pre-sales or collective production.
The Critique Bay. A social network environment that promotes the connectivity between all the users and the spread of ideas.
Filmgrid will use the power of blockchain technology to manage transactions and hosting the smart contracts that will secure funds, voting, and other important aspects that make Filmgrid unique.
Filmgrid Platform
A MOVIE MARKETPLACE - {THE BILLBOARD}
For those moviemakers that have made a digital movie (and/or hold the copyright for it) and want to capitalize their project, we have the Billboard, a storefront for movies of all type, length, kind and style.
The moviemaker registers in Filmgrid as Creative Users, if the movie is a collaborative work, the involved Creative Users must form what is called a Creative Team, then upload to the Billboard the Movie; once in display, a Viewer User buys a digital copy of the Movie, and, through the application, the Movie can be downloaded or streamed and viewed as many times as the Viewer User decides.
There is also a movie rental option for titles available in the screening mode in the "Billboard", in exchange for a “ticket”, the user obtain the right to play and watch the movie for 48 hours from the moment of payment.
A FUNDING PLATFORM BY POPULAR PARTICIPATION - {THE PITCHBOARD}
If there are Creatives with a cool movie project, or a very good idea for one, they can use Filmgrid's Pitchboard to fund it. All there is to do, is upload a description, an image, giff, teaser or trailer video and a budget to participate.
It's not quite crowdfunding, yet it relies on the crowd. There are three options to do so:
• A Production Fund, where the crowd, in this case the platform users, will decide voting upon the catalog of projects in display on the Pitchboard which ones will get part(or total) of such fund. One or more projects may be funded in each round. The fund will reset in cycles, all projects can participate as much as liked.
• An old fashioned Presale, where the user can buy the movie before it is made, in order to support its Creative Users with the production of the project. The patrons of the project will always be in control of the proper usage of the presale funds, according to the Creative Team's production plan.
• The help of a Production Pool made by users that are interested in movie production. These Investing Users get the opportunity to take part in the financing of the project, in exchange for a percentage of the profit generated by the product.
This way, the project is committed only to the Viewers, and never to movie moguls.
The Production Fund management, the voting and the dispersal of funds will be secured by Smart Contracts in the Blockchain, assuring the veracity and appropriate usage of the funds; every Creative User member of the funded Creative Team can trust the platform will release their respective payment, therefore everyone can focus in making a great movie.
A CINEMA SOCIAL NETWORK... ish - {CRITIQUE BAY}
A Social Reputation System will provide the best quality control, delivered by the users themselves; rating Movies and Creative Users, bad quality or poor Movies won't make to the top, with the possibility of getting permanently banned.
Users can use reactions to interact with each other in the platform.
• CRITIQUE: Movies can receive a Critique from those who watch it.
• Applause: Movies and Creative Users can be granted with an Applause.
• OVATION: Creative Teams can earn Ovations with their projects.
• FANS: Users can follow their favorite Creative Users and Teams.
Since is a network, a connection channel gets open, where Creative Users can find key members for their crews, or find a crew where to contribute, and most important, learn from the Viewers feedbacks.
