About this idea

We intend to create one educational video per month. 5-8 minutes long.

This documentary series is about the fundamentals of Cardano explaining the real basics combining real life experience and real life use cases where possible.

We are filming in the studio in Prague, Czech Republic.
The interviews filmed here are the main part of the project. It will be combined with some online interviews as well.

It will be bi-lingual: in Czech with English subtitles and vice versa.
Furthermore the educational content will be subtitled also into other languages.
We plan to test all this within the first episode that will be released in October.

The trailer and the first episode is funded by Adatruth, produced by Petr Smělík.
We are currently seeking funds for episode 2-4.
The first episode is featuring Cardano Ambassador Jaromír Tesař.

The format is structured as an educational and inspirational programme. The Cardano community and a global audience can learn about blockchain technology and about the unique approach Cardano brings.

The plan is to deliver 3 videos in total after the Fund 6 winners announcement.

The first one will be delivered in November, the second one in December 2020 and the last one in January 2021.

If the Blockchain Class is a success, we'd ask for more funds to create more stories in Fund 7.

I have a small crew of TV professionals who are working with me on the project.

Distribution:

The videos are distributed on our website via Vimeo and then organically to the viewers.

I need help here. I'm not a Youtuber, never will be. In essence I'm a documentary filmmaker and I intend to stay one. So I can create the content, but I need a marketing specialist who knows how to deliver the videos to a wider audience.

I still see the best option in IOHK's YT channel or as a part of Cardano 360. Not sure whether this is possible.

In the future I'd like to broadcast my work on TV but it's too soon at this stage.
