Independent movie creators, streamers, and watchers rejoice! Film is finally coming to Web3—thanks to Gala Film.
Gala, the main company behind blockchain gaming platform Gala Games and later, web3 music hub Gala Music, once again surprised newsletter insiders (like me, on July 26) as it teased out Gala Film. It’s the latest decentralized platform to join the Gala Web3 ecosystem.
In the sweet newsletter issue, Gala briefly described its evolution from a gaming company to an entire universe of entertainment applications, sharing rewards and control among creatives and fans.
Previously, Gala focused on developing Gala Games. It has since then launched popular and fun titles such as Town Star. Later, it introduced Gala Music, partnering with artist Snoop Dogg to release one of the earliest and most polished adaptations of non-fungible tokens (NFTs) in music.
Gala Film: The Next Frontier of Gala
Gala’s vision for Gala Film involves the same principles it embraced with Gala Games and Gala Music. It’s all about empowering creators and making sure they own and get rewarded for the content they produce.
Having popularized the role of “nodes” in the decentralized Web3, Gala is bringing the concept of “shared ownership and rewards” to movie-making. This means everyone can rightfully own their entertainment content, and at the same time, support their favorite film creators worldwide.
A “democratized future for film”
With Gala Film, users can watch, own, empower, and earn. From play-to-earn to listen-to-earn, Gala now brings watch-to-earn to its platform.
This genius move by Gala empowers both the independent animator or movie creator and their fans. Since its video entertainment arm is built on the decentralized node ecosystem that is Gala, it allows fans to directly support the projects they love. Plus, it makes it possible for creators to connect with their loyal audience even more closely.
Upcoming projects at Gala Film
Gala has listed its first four upcoming projects to launch on its decentralized movie platform. They all look promising!
Ghosts of Ruin
This one’s an animated drama series. If you’re a fan of dystopia, you’ll love this Gala creation. The series explores gaming through a world of advanced technology and then an unexpected disaster.
The synopsis reads:
“This gritty dystopic animated series explores gaming through a world of advanced tech that allows players to feel their games, but a rogue program emerges to turn their paradise into a living nightmare.”
The Making of The Chronic
It’s a documentary on the 1992 album from Death Row Records. If you’re a fan, you could watch and earn from this.
The VOX Feature
Gala and Blue Eyes Entertainment are also unveiling a new partnership with this film project. They got plans for this upcoming animated feature film based on VOX and the Gala Games platform.
Into the Galaverse
This adventure short film celebrates Web3 experiences as imagined by Gala. It will feature IRL (in real life) experiences in the metaverse.
How does Gala Film tie in with Gala Games?
Since this creative video and storytelling platform is powered by Gala, you can expect that whatever $GALA tokens you’re holding now will have more use cases for web3 entertainment.
At this point, we’re still early on the news. We have little to know about this movie platform and how it will welcome film creators. But, as with the success of Gala Games and Gala Music, Gala Film has the potential to give power back to independent moviemakers and their fans.
By the way, if you hold a Gala Film pass, you may now exchange it so you can redeem a Gala Film node and NFT, as well as a whitelist spot for a future title. You can even receive exclusive platform rewards in the future.
