The opportunity

Our proposal is to bring the fascinating world of nouns to life through an array of engaging content on social media platforms.

Our vision is to deliver daily doses of memes, weekly news updates, and other captivating content that is both entertaining and informative. Imagine scrolling through your Instagram feed and stumbling upon a hilarious meme that perfectly captures the essence of a noun, or receiving weekly news updates in a creative way that keeps you in the loop about the latest nouns-related happenings or even macro events.

But wait, there’s more! We are also excited to introduce a series of original comics that delve into the rich history of nouns. These comics will be a fun and unique way for members to discover the origins and evolution of different nouns and their cultural significance.

This is a unique opportunity to not only increase engagement within the community but also to expand the reach of NounsDAO beyond the blockchain space.

Work Recap

Nounstown Studio has embarked on a creative venture by producing daily comic strips that are regularly uploaded on our social media channels. The primary objective of these comic strips is to enhance public awareness of Nounstown Studio and its Noun characters by weaving captivating narratives around them. To cater to a wider audience, we create comics in two languages, Indonesian and English, and endeavor to upload two strips per day.

Our comics have also been featured on various platforms to showcase our artwork to a wider audience. For instance, we have partnered with Webtoon Indonesia to produce a comic series that highlights Noun characters and their adventures. Additionally, our website serves as a hub for our comic uploads.

We have plans to expand our reach through strategic marketing. Currently, we are identifying key opinion leaders who align with Nounstown Studio’s vision and mission to amplify our content on social media and Webtoon Indonesia. Furthermore, we have initiated digital marketing efforts such as Instagram Ads to promote our daily comic strips on Instagram. Lastly, we intend to publish printed comics in conjunction with Noun character merchandise.

No comment on this Proposal and won’t consider it for now because we just funded 2.5 ETH for this 2 weeks ago:

In this case, you need to deliver this and we need ability to assess it before proceeding with any additional funding. Comic doesn’t exist yet so inappropriate for us to consider the studio part.

@Noun12 I have completed those 40 Pages, maybe around 42 + Indonesian daily content on Instagram and also lots of inspiring nounish content. I’m confused to submit my comic. Do I have to remake it into a webtoon so that everyone can enjoy it or do I sell NFT as access to enjoy my work/physical comics … and Revenue from NFT will be used to create the next page, anyone please give me suggestions for this…

I do not know nor do I follow what you have laid out. I don’t know if I’m even the right person to ask.

But I would say communicating strategy clearly and being organized and effective is something that would be key in any studio we partner with.

dear @Noun12 i hope @Nounstown_Studio or @Nounsfun I hope they won’t be able to participate in the nouns community anymore in the future. They are frauds. they don’t pay us to do the comics. Please, don’t let any other usernames actually be the same individual
