ProposalsProposal 236
The first short film funded by Nouns DAO (prop 20) is ready for its premiere, so we are proposing that Nouns DAO launch the film with a premiere and timed open edition mint event, all in one, via this proposal.
While it will be either the second or third ever DAO mint (depending on outcomes of current proposals), it will be the first ever DAO release of media (premiere) via a proposal. Upon execution, the mint and film will both be available here: premiere.wtf
The Wizards Hat has been a labor of love from its genesis to completion. Every aspect of the film from early pre-production art through to voice overs, sound design and animation has been toiled over, aiming to uphold a long-established artisan approach of traditional animation. The team has enjoyed every little step of the journey and we hope watching it is as magical as it has been making it.
We ended up writing a long form breakdown of Harriett - a bubbly wizard’s hat who always sees the cauldron half-full, and Grummelot - a grumpy old spellmaster stuck in his ways. An origin story and full season arcs are ready to be turned into a full animated series if the opportunity arises.
Prop 190 described an idea, that "by minting... from the DAO via a proposal, it is becoming Nouns DAO canon. Similar to how the DAO added in new head attributes via a proposal, Nouns can continue to explore and experiment with new models of CC0 art and production and minting directly from the DAO is a new tool for the organization to directly release and distribute the most important artifacts from the community. It’s not hard to see how this can advance Nouns into a crypto-native form of Movie Studio, Production House, Art Museum and so on."
The film will be released as a timed open edition for a price of 0.05 ETH. This means it will be available for anyone to mint for the premiere week, which will be approximately the 20th Feb - 27th Feb, (beginning from proposal execution). Proceeds from sale will be split between Nouns DAO and the Wizards Hat production team 50/50.
Again, we echo the sentiment of prop 190: "We are excited to experiment with DAO NFT releases as an additional value capture mechanism, and potentially create a simple and repeatable model for any creator, community and brand in the ecosystem to put forward amazing artifacts to be minted via Nouns."
This edition will be minted with Zora, and will be available to mint onchain as well as watch the film at premiere.wtf after the proposal is executed.

Note: the Zora edition has been setup with the film's trailer as a placeholder, and will be swapped out to the final film upon execution, before transferring the contract ownership to the DAO.

Graphic.⌐◨-◨ | "Another cool animated video to mint. Seems to be a cool new meta and modern day movie premiers on the blockchain!"
Benbodhi | "nounish af ⌐◨-◨"
wiz | "wiz 🤝 wiz"
Josep | "I think it's a good way to commemorate a very nounish project, completely in favor."
Soooo excited for this! And generally find the meta of droposals to be a clear signal amongst a lot of noise right now. Really nice incentive alignment: if the DAO is happy with how a prop went, the work can be made canon and the proposer benefits from that, as well!

difficult to think of a more natural meeting place for holders and artists than an nft-native production company. very exciting trend!
