RE: Ideas to get our crowdfund on fundition noticed

in #bounty6 years ago

Producing a short film set in the world. Having produced several short films myself, I know how much work this is, but I have several proposals for how to make it both low-budget and brilliant.

Step 1. host a script-writing contest
Set some guidelines that will attract cost-effective scripts, including location restrictions, length restrictions, and requesting explanations of how to afford any script elements that seem expensive (E.G. I might write a script with a fight scene that seems expensive to shoot, but if I also volunteer that I know a fight choreographer who will do it for free and a friend with a drone that will shoot it for free, well, maybe it's feasible)

Step 2. Select scripts
There are several steemians, myself included, with film-making experience who can, with the Chibera creative team, help select several feasible scripts to choose between. I'd propose then a community-driven selection process, with voting being either restricted to folks with a perks level or being value-based via upvotes to posts of the scripts by Chibera (and sure, if people want to pay bots to vote for their scripts, fine. The proceeds go to Chibera to help fund the winning script's production.)

Step 3. Putting together a production team
This might be the hardest part. Depending on whether the winning script's writer is a film-making professional, someone would have to build a team. I volunteer my services as a producer, though, and could put together a team if there aren't other options.

Step 4. Fund the short film.
For 1000 SBD, an entertaining 3 minute short film that shows off good storytelling and has a few poppin' design elements can act as an advertisement for Chibera itself, and this whole process of the contest will draw the attention of creatives in the first place, creatives who have fan bases... 1000 SBD is nothing to sneer at, certainly, but Chibera can regulate the value of the product throughout the process. If Chibera has less, they can set their sights on a simpler product. Budgeting can be part of the pitch packet for project submissions. This requires some organizing, but I think could have a tremendous influence on both attracting talent and attention to the world of Chibera.
