Willing to donate $10,000 if you are my friend, cheers

I believe it's a legal requirement, mandated by international treaties, that any such documentary begins with Pink Floyd's "Money"

Not exactly what you requested, but a damn close second option. (short) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tubw0JDlyQU

If nothing else, borrow the concept.


Another way to incorporate the song is at the beginning of the doc, show a busker picking Money, later in the film, expand the song further, then further, then toward the end, a full orchestra playing the song, and finally a choir, as seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DNsI54-26k8

There's a term that describes this progression, but it eludes me.

By far the best results are achieved by either

• copying
• inventing by mistake

So as long as it's not you who does it.  


IMO this would create the effect of 'taking you back in time', which would not be appropriate: it should be futuristic.

I think I know what you mean, a lot of Hollywood films use it, especially if the score is very good: 'Titanic', 'The Bodyguard', 'The Lion King'.

Hi Bruno,

Since your cause has donated ~14 BTC so far you guys float between the 10 BTC ('Wood Sponsor') and 25 BTC ('Gold Sponsor') mark, which means you should at least have all the privieges a Wood Sponsor would get plus some things from the Gold Sponsor Tier. PM me to discuss the details for not cluttering the thread (or post it if you insist to make it transparent at all cost )
Id like to aid you guys in your cause as I think everybody profits from it!

Greetings from Germany,
Johannes

Now how the fuck did the barn wood guy backdoor the Wood Sponsor position?

Seriously, I nor Bitcoin 100 is interested in earning rewards for our actions. As you've quoted me above (in bold) in regard to this tier system of yours, I feel it best to dole any perks achieved via our funding efforts to those we may obtain to donating to your cause either directly or indirectly.

For instance, the entities I get on board to post Challenge Grants. They may be more incline to accept said rewards, perhaps donating in such a manner to reap the maximum benefits. Remember, I'm gunning for at least 10 people to pledge no less than $5,000 USD total, coupled with The Bitcoin Foundation to grant another $1,000 USD, IFF I obtain 10 new non-profits before the end of April.

This way you would receive no less than $16,000 USD worth of bitcoins into your coffer. As you well know, I'm already less than an inch there, since you've already received 1/16th of the my goal, with only 15/16 left to go. Now, if I were in Germany, the task at hand would be even smaller, for I would be measuring it in cm, assuming a cm is shorter than an inch.  

One more thing that I don't want to take for granted. Those 10+ entities I've been speaking of should get proper billing as well, similar to the 10 non-profits I bring on board. In fact it's imperative that this is arranged, for it's a major selling point for me to obtain those entities. I'm sure that BitPay, Coinabul, Butterfly Labs, Mt. Gox, Memory Dealers, Satoshi Dice, et al., would love to see their names on the big screen. (apologies if I left off major entities on the list, but was penning from memory off the top of my...let me rephrase that)

UPDATE: Second Bitcoin Docu announced!

Hi Everyboy, Im excited about this project! There is another Documentary in the making by Pittsburgh film makers that aspires to take Bitcoin to the public this year. Have a look at their project thread and show them some loving!
https://bt.irlbtc.com/view/158091

We have been in contact over the past weeks and agreed on some collaboration to boost our both projects. They seem to focus on the US-side of things while we have, due to our geographical location, the focus on the European community momentarily.
I cant wait to see their movie, I hope they release more info soon! (may have to stop calling it the "FIRST" Bitcoin Docu eventually )

love this Johannes!  would be great to be involved somehow.  kann Deutsch sprechen und wohne in Kanada, bruder wohnt in Asien und spricht Mandarin, freund in Kanada (auch Deutsch) hat film in der Uni studiert...

Hi thx buddha!

Im sure we an work something out!
Where exactly are you located? Others have also pledged their support and have even offered to conduct interviews for us over in the US. Maybe you guys could join forces on the right occasion. Do you have any skills that you could help us with?

@ Bruno:

When we stayed over at Bratislava on Alex Breadman's invitation (he also organises this year's other big Bitcoin Conference), I was introduced to his charity program that he runs together with his fiancé and a friend; its called BitcoinTablet and is based on an interesting idea. Basically they want to raise funds (Bitcoins) in order to ship tablets for the lowest prices available at no additional costs to schools and rural communities in Africa. The twist is that these tablets run on solar power and can communicate with one another and with the internet through a meshnet from device to device. That way no additional infrastructure is neccessary and only one device connected to the internet enables all of them to take part in the global community. Oh yeah, and as a bonus Bitcoin Clients are already pre installed;)

Its still in early stage but they will receive the first batch of tablets next month and have already arranged some schools in central Africa to ship to.

Have a look and if you like it, pls consider to support them!

Cheers,
JR
