"Carella: Purple" - a documentary about Chris Carella
TL;DR
In the second episode of the "Behind the noggles" series, discover the fascinating journey of Carella, who is on a mission to connect onchain builders with grants.
From minting the first NFT on the Tezos blockchain to gifting Vitalik the first pair of noggles, Bigshot's Golden Noggles.
Short documentary film (20 minutes) | Budget: $39,000 USDC
Chris Carella hyperpunk. artist. purple. energy. nouns. op citizens house. charmverse.
- Early to Nouns, Chris voted on 100% of the props for an entire year when he was delegated a Noun. Later, he was awarded Noun 839 due to unanimous FOR votes on proposal 499.
- Early to Farcaster, he noticed the builder energy in the space and started Purple, the first nounish DAO launched on Zora's Nouns Builder infrastructure with the goal of proliferating and expanding the Farcaster protocol and ecosystem.
- He is also a prolific artist, from his early days working with acrylic on canvas in his Queen's studio to delivering beautiful NFTs to his subscribers on Hypersub.
- He got involved in many DAOs, and became a part of the Optimism Citizens House, FWB, Nouns, Purple, Nouns, Hats Protocol Proto DAO, The Park, Energy, Builder DAO and many others.
- Chris is always trying to connect builders with grants, be it in Nouns, Purple, or, more recently, the Scout Game.
📽️ THE PLAN / RESULTS
The Nouns DAO community is about the passionate individuals behind it. Hence "Behind the Noggles" series (s/o to Brett for the suggestion 🙏).
With this documentary series, we aim to spotlight these inspiring onchain journeys. Episode 2, Carella.
As with Benbodhi's documentary, we aim to bring awareness to Nouns and inspire people to join us.
Benbodhi: Decoded (Propdate/results)
I have been onboarding new people every week by attending meetups here in Perth, Australia, messaging everyone in the crypto industry and sending people the doco for them to watch.
Some examples: Karoline - Had never heard of Nouns. Loved the doco and immediately adopted Noggles on Twitter: https://x.com/karo_kol
She recently went to Sydney to attend the Blockies Awards and the AUS Crypto conference:
And she has put together an event next week to screen both Ben’s and Vitalik’s documentaries: https://www.eventbrite.ie/e/ethereum-movie-night-tickets-1082827759979
Bruno is an old friend and is heavily involved with the Hive community. He loved the doco, went to NounsTown in LA and came back like this:
The Honorary Consul from Brazil in Perth has also reached out and he is interested in hosting a meeting with the Brazilian community to learn more about Nouns.
The Ethereum Film team has also shown interest in Ben’s documentary.
Here are some numbers. Mints:
YT views (every day new people are watching it):
And we are also posting daily shorts/reels on all social media channels:
📅 THE SCHEDULE
We will deliver the final cut within 4 to 5 months of being funded. Around April 2025, with filming scheduled for late December 2024 / January 2025.
💰 THE ASK - $39,000 USDC
🫂 THE TEAM
We are essentially the same crew from “Benbodhi: Decoded”.
