TUFF MOVIES - INTRODUCING Terry Stone
TUFF - THE ULTIMATE FILM FACTORY
TALES FROM THE TRAP...
The film can be described as "Top Boy" meets "Blue Story" and is set within the UK Rap Scene and covers the County Lines gangs that have been hitting the news throughout 2023 its called "Tales From The Trap" and was written by Greg Hall who was the writer of the No.1 Netflix Film "Villain".
The aim with this new film is to generate a brand new Film Franchise, a Merchandise range and a new way of monetising films prior to the normal releasing strategies using Web3 Technology & Digital assets. We've signed digital distribution deals with Streamz & Crypto.Com who currently have over 100 Million Users Worldwide and are looking to break into Film the same way that they have broken into Football, UFC and F1 Racing.
Our plan working alongside Crypto.Com is to create digital assets that are directly related to their customers who are mainly 18-30 and using various characters who appear in the film utilising famous UK Rap Artists and Actors and release these as Limited Edition Digital Assets and push them out for sale via Crypto.com's platform.
(https://crypto.com/nft), Some of these stars have millions of followers on social media and are doing crazy downloads of their songs 100M + in some cases and some of the artists music videos are racking up 94M + views: the eyeballs and awareness that we can get using these artists is going to be huge.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egSqA6j9csw Each one of these Digital assets will be uniquely numbered (which makes these highly collectible) and will contain the following: A 3D Avatar of the Artist, A Digital Copy of the Film, A Digital Copy of the Soundtrack of the Film, Digital Copies of the Music Artists tracks (if applicable), Digital Images of the Artist taken on set from them appearing in the film. Each purchaser of these digital assets will gain VIP Status in our Tales From The Trap Private Members Community which will allow them to win or buy: Limited Edition Tales From The Trap Merchandise signed by the Music Artists/Actors, World Film Premiere & Afterparty Tickets, Wrap Party Access End of Filming Party tickets where you can meet and party with the stars from the film, there will also be walk on parts and VIP Visits to the film set whilst we are filming.
We will be allocating 1,000, 2,500, 5,000 or 7,500 of these digital assets at an estimated $99 - $299 per asset depending on how big and how popular the artist/actor is and which bundle they pick as the more assets they get the more expensive the asset will be, there are currently 35 roles that we will be digitalising within the film.
We are partnering up with a Web3 PPV/Streaming Platform called Streamz so we can hold a VIP PPV Event on this platform to monetise the film before its "official traditional release" they are looking to tokenize this platform as well so people are buying into an asset rather than just a meme coin and share in the success of the platform.
We are going to build up our community through Crypto.Com and the Web3 Community and utilising Social Media throughout the pre-production and production of "Tales From The Trap" and offer everyone a chance to register via a link with their email for this VIP Screening event so they can be the first people to see the film before anyone else.
We anticipate that we can generate anywhere between 100,000 - 1,000,000 registered customers for this PPV event. The PPV price is yet to be decided but will be between £9.99 - £19.99. After this event then we are going to explore selling the film traditionally to a UK Distributor, Hollywood Studio or one of the Major Streaming Platforms.
This could easily disrupt and change the way Films are monetised in the future and we are looking to take back control of our content upfront rather than just relying on the traditional models of releasing independent content and relying on the Distributors & Sales Companies to deliver the value. There has been a big movement last year where Artists and Content Creators are voicing that they are unhappy with the current models that heavily benefit the Platforms and Studios and not the Actual Talent and this is the main reason for us coming up with this new way of doing things in 2024!
Top Boy was Netflix's biggest show here in the UK and has recently come to an end, which has left another gap in the market for this type of content. Paramount last year bought the Worldwide rights to and released "Sumotherhood" in October 2023, this film took just under £2.5m at the UK Box Office which for a low budget British Film is unheard of. This all combined with the Actors, Directors and Writers Strikes last year means that later on this year there is going to be a huge lack of content (especially this specific type of UK Rap content) and we know that this film "Tales From The Trap" is in a great place to take advantage of the current environment utilising this new model.
It would be great to have you involved in this exciting project.
