Cardano and its community is lacking creative and unique ways to promote Cardano, its philosophy and core values at scale.
A weekly caricature representing the weekly video of Charles Hoskinson
This is the total amount allocated to CaricatorADA (CaricatureADA).
Charles Hoskinson is talking regularly with the community through youtube videos. His messages are inspiring and share the vision and work of Cardano. Many of the people joining the community said they did so after watching Charles videos. Here is the link to his youtube channel
When I got to see his videos I also got hooked by the message and energy and especially by his life mission to create better systems for all. At my elderlyage, I saw many inspiring leaders and Charles is definitely one of them. How can I help spread Charles’ messages to more people and grow the community? How can we make something that is unique and innovative? First I started with creating the hoskintoons.com NFT project, which was also recognized by Charles in one of his videos
and I am looking into using my expertise to promote Cardano in a unique way. CaricatorADA The idea for this proposal is CaricatorADA (CaricatureADA), a weekly caricature that will represent some key text from Charles' weekly youtube messages. This proposal will focus on a timeframe of 12 weeks and will therefore produce 12 caricatures.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jbuoszz3w0g&t=56shttps://www.youtube.com/user/charleshoskinson/videosI am part of the network and specialist in Cartoons with strong messages. As you can see in my work I am quite creative and specialised in a unique category.
The proposed project is unique, creative and will give a lot of information one caricature at a time. I am doing it on a daily basis for a newspaper to represent political daily reality.
There are not any major challenges as Charles is producing video content on a regular basis and the proposer has a strong track record.
However, one challenge we are considering is how to be able to generate revenue so the work could continue for a longer period of time. We will evaluate NFT models for it.
The roadmap is straightforward
Weekly Cartoon x 12 weeks x USD 500 = USD 6000
Marketing & PR USD 500 per month x 3 months = USD 1500
Communication with media, emails, website = USD 600 per month x 3 months = USD 1800
Total budget USD 9300

This proposal is highly auditable for deliverables and KPIs

======================================================================================
posts using the hashtag connected to the collection eg #CaricatorADA
Collaborations with IOG and Charles
Community sharing and tweeting
Exposure in media channels out of the community
Message and knowledge transfer in a creative way
This is a new proposal
Many SDGs could be relevant for this proposal depending on the weekly subject and distribution channels to reach many people. There is no one specific SDG to report here.
