“For the first time there exists a deck of NFT cards that is dedicated to the film industry and confer membership to the DCP collective upon their holders”
The FILMCrew collection features 56 original designs by Lithuanian director and artist Robertas Nevecka and mirrors a deck of playing cards, with each “card” illustrating an individual or component on a film set. The cards are available for purchase on DCP’s T3L4NT Net, a fork in the Tezos blockchain, and on Rarible.com on Tezos mainnet.
Ten of the exclusive decks are being allocated towards a g******* on the DCP app, where the first 560 individuals who sign up will receive a FILMCrew NFT. The funds from the sale of these NFTs will go toward DCP’s non-profit mission to support independent filmmakers, including filmmakers from underserved and underrepresented communities. FILMCrew NFTs will allow their owners to attend special DCP events such as filmmaker meet-ups, Q&As with established filmmakers, access the forthcoming DCP cafe and receive free buy-in to the annual DCP charity poker tournament.
“For the first time there exists a deck of NFT cards that is dedicated to the film industry and confer membership to the DCP collective upon their holders,” says Leo Matchett, co-founder and CEO. “This NFT collection is an innovative way for DCP to interact with our community, unlock future utility and value for NFT holders and further our mission of empowering independent filmmakers and bringing fresh content to the big screen.”
