PROPOSAL DESCRIPTION DecentStudio seeks a grant to produce a series of 25 high-quality promotional videos designed to elevate and expand the Ape community. Each video will feature a different model, showcasing 25 unique NFT PFPs (Profile Pictures) from the Ape collection. These PFPs will be selected on a First Come, First Served basis by the ApeChain Community (e.g. by social media) ensuring fairness and inclusivity within the community. The videos will highlight the distinctive culture and values of the Ape community, utilizing advanced storytelling techniques and the innovative “Bring PFP to Life” feature to engage both current members and potential newcomers. Our goal is to drive growth and strengthen community bonds, making the Ape ecosystem more vibrant and appealing.'

Thrilled to inform that we’ve submitted a proposal to @apecoin DAO. Some lucky @BoredApeYC holders are in for something special! Apes Together Strong. Link in the next post pic.x.com/mqcogwr9p6 https://x.com/BoredApeYC

BENEFIT TO APECOIN ECOSYSTEM This proposal directly benefits the ApeCoin ecosystem by enhancing community engagement and attracting new members through captivating promotional content using official BAYC’s 3d models. By showcasing the unique aspects of the Ape community, the videos will align with the APE Community’s core mission of fostering creativity, collaboration, and inclusivity. The “Bring PFP to Life” feature further enriches the user experience, making the community more interactive and immersive, which in turn can increase the utility and appeal of ApeCoin within the ecosystem.

Each 30-second video becomes a mini-advertisement for ApeChain, showcasing its logo at the corner of the video.

For the ApeChain community and BAYC-holders, this is a chance to learn about content creation using BAYC’s 3d models and digital storytelling, fostering a more skilled and engaged user base.

The videos may be used before and during ApeFest. The inclusion of ApeChain branding ensures that the chain will be at the forefront of this exposure.

With this grant, we help ApeChain community members by covering the initial fee and giving them the opportunity to order additional videos at a much lower price. The cost of integrating the model with our technology and producing the first animated video is estimated at $200. After the BAYC 3D model is integrated into our system, each additional 20-second video for any 3D model will cost $10.

OVERALL COST Total amount requested from the ApeCoin Ecosystem Fund = $5,000.

25x $200 to properly rig the model, set up the video pipeline in our technology, and deliver a 30-second animated video.
