There’s an interesting project on Kickstarter I want you to seriously consider funding: Filmocracy.
Paul Jun and his team are developing a streaming platform for independent filmmakers that gamifies watching new movies and rating them.
Ratings won’t be simply thumbs up or thumbs down. Instead, viewers will be able to select 1-5 for:
- Plot
- Characters
- Cinematography
- Performances
- Dialogue
- Sound/Music
- Overall
Half of revenue will be returned to filmmakers based on time screened with another 10% going to viewers.
Check out their pitch and please contribute.
My take: I think this is an interesting model that might just take off. Gaming is huge so why not gamify indie streaming? I’m a backer!
