That SMTs give anyone the power to launch and sell proof-of-Brain. And that by leveraging the concepts of inflation and token allocations by post - based voting, SMTs exit in matter where value must be distributed to users who are participating in their related content networks and applications.
Also that the launch of SMTs can be structured for ICOs with hard, soft, and no caps and can be tailored to receive steem and cryptocurrencies on other blockchains. One thing I love so much about SMTs is their immediate access to function unmanned make against the liquid asset, STEEM.
Also that the bandwidth rate limiting has made it possible for steem DEX to be the first DEX to exist without trading fees to the benefit of SMTs creators and traders alike. It was quite lengthy but I did manage to read through and it was so informative. Thanks a lot @brian-rhodes.

Awesome to hear and think of for that purpose. I think with time SMT's will be funding a lot of great projects via crowdfunding like KickStarter only at much greater ease and with no middle man.

@brian-rhodes | Jan. 24, 2018, 4:18 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

And unlike kickstarter, you and the people you upvote will be rewarded with more than just a t-shirt. If a site is set-up properly, the token could become very valuable.

@coanj | Jan. 24, 2018, 8:01 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

I understand its content @zacherybinx, but what differences exist between crowdfunding and KickStarter?. And what could that reward be? @brian-rhodes

Nice!!!!!

@zacherybinx | Jan. 25, 2018, 10:44 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

Well I mean with kickstarter you're not only funded with a t-shirt it depends on what project you're funding and what reward you vouch for. But with films it be great in pre-production to be able to fund better costumes, sets, special fx, etc. in advance and then as a result the users who fund that would get digital access or DVD/Blu-Ray (whatever medium at that time) copies once released. Also, I think a lot of people love seeing the process of how a film or show develops so a behind the scenes look at what you're directly funding potentially with SMT's could be a great avenue for independent filmmakers and fans everywhere. Either way great to see this being discussed more and more.

@bitton | Jan. 25, 2018, 10:18 a.m. | Votes: 2 | [ VOTE ]

SMT's is not like kickstarter in my opinion, because the different way it works. But it does gonna help new projects like kickstarter does.

@zacherybinx | Jan. 25, 2018, 10:50 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

A real simple example of this not in film-making but in it's neighboring field is music. Fans can fund albums easily and as a result essentially pre-order their copy. This allows the starving artists to make the artistic decisions they want vs. a label having so much control and receiving x percentage, which if you haven't checked out the documentary Artifact I highly suggest it. [http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2370718/] So many of the creative individuals are getting screwed by terrible contracts and such. Blockchain and SMT quite simply will help a lot more individuals profit from their work and create new avenues for others to do so. I think ultimately SMT's are a win for individuals but especially the creative types! Worldwide it'll be easier than ever to get the funding you need for your small project. It makes finding a niche and completing a project from home easier than ever. Great time to be alive in that respect!

@you-know-who | Jan. 24, 2018, 3:26 p.m. | Votes: 3 | [ VOTE ]

The SMTs can really take off soon. We'll see what's gonna happen, I totally agree on the ICOs part however.

Many new possibilities will open up on release. It's understanding the subtleties that will make the difference between success and failure.

No idea. He may hold a lot invested in steem power as do many many more. I guess if you post something they like they look to support you with an upvote. Their upvote is worth more because of the steem power held. But it's rare they would upvote more than 5 or 10%, same as you and me.

I've been here a couple days and the insincerity is the first thing that stood out. There are people who share thoughtful comments and you can tell they're just trying to get a vote, but at least they put some time and effort into what they're saying.

The group that bugs me are basically e-beggars with lazy, low-effort "thank you for posting"-type content. It's like chicks fishing for compliments and attention on Insta, but instead of putting SOME work into a cute photo they just snap a pic of themselves laying in bed, messed up hair and face pushed back showing off the double chin.

Use the mute feature. Also, don't respond to them. I like the OP's post, but responding to low-value posts contributes to the problem.

Ooooh! @dunks. Maybe a little too harsh. People are finding their way. Unfortunately Steemit was first marketed as an income generator. It will take time for people to realize that the real success is in more than that. We'll also have the scammers but give people the benefit of the doubt. I'll up-vote you this time because you're new at the game. But next time try to comment on the blog by adding something to the conversation.

Yes. We have approval to use steem.film from the Motion Picture Academy Registry. It will be for Persons, Associations and Companies involved in the process of making film. The SMT will be the steemfilm token. The purpose of the site - film funding, collaboration and service providers. There will be more announced shortly. In the meantime watch for my blogs that start wit (TOOTTC). The are blogs through which we will fund the shost film - the dry run for steem.film

Intermittent cinematographer here. Just wondering where you think SMT funding will go mostly: for post-production (rewarding for finished content) or pre-production or both? Rewards for a finished product is easy enough to understand but I'm wondering how a pre-production model would work? A single film raising money by ICO is easy for the investor to understand. An SMT project with a big pool of funds could be accessed by budding filmmakers advertising their projects and upvoters can vote (and get some ownership) in projects they like.

@brian-rhodes | Jan. 27, 2018, 9:51 p.m. | Votes: 1 | [ VOTE ]

SMT is the token. The site built on the Steem Blockchain empowered by the SMT will reflect the community. For example our site will be "steem.film". The token will be 'Steemfilm'. steem.film will be set up for any persons, organizations or business involved in the 'process of making film'. The keep objective is to provide film funding , collaboration and services. Therefore all will be of singular thought, not all across the board in Steemit. As a result you will not need ICO's other than the initial ICO to set it up. Everything will be done through rewards - no pools of funds. Totally decentralized. Besides, ICO's are going to become very expensive very soon when the SEC decides to get involved. Watch my blogs that start (TOOTTC) and watch along as we make a short film funded completely by rewards. This is a short. The next one is a feature.

But sometimes, it gets frustrating when you spend 30 minutes crafting a comment, just end up at the bottom of the pile of comments and never read. Eventually you just end up making random comments based out of frustration lol. Best of luck in the future. I have followed you and look forward to commenting intelligently on your future posts.

I just got a big upvote from @thejohalfiles on my DTube video as well talking about how to create a SMT platform for free with the power of Utopian.io. I think you will be very interested in that idea as it creates a solution for you about how to create the actual dedicated website.

I would think crowd-sourced funding would be a more effective way of raising funds for a film project where most anyone contributing would not expect a ROI, but would contribute for love of the project. I agree that ICO's must have a potential long-term ROI to attract capital.

No. Crowd sourcing expects a donation from your pocket. That's asking a lot these days and doesn't do a damn bit of good for the poor in Africa, Venezuela etc. On the other hand, with an SMT one can earn from the platform by posting original content and build not only a better financial circumstance for themselves but the freedom to support what ever cause they choose. It's about freedom. ICO's aren't even a part of it . Watch the blogs I do that start with (TOOTTC). It's a film we are doing funding it as we go along through rewards.

@retiredinsamar | Jan. 27, 2018, 11:38 p.m. | Votes: 2 | [ VOTE ]

I completely understand that while there is NO ROI with crowd-sourced funding, any income generated for a project on a SMT platform is short-lived... unless that algorithm changes. Otherwise, I believe you lost me in this discussion.

@brian-rhodes | Jan. 28, 2018, 5:08 a.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

The token is an instrument designed to have a forever life. The platform is the steem platform. The site that is enabled with an SMT is built on the Steem platform. You earn SMT tokens for the posts of original content you make on the site. Keep posting and people will up-vote your post if they like what you're saying and you earn rewards. You can leave the tokens on your site in the hope they will grow in value or you can turn them into cash. You can continue ding that until the day you die. It is not short-lived at all. Does this help?

@retiredinsamar | Jan. 28, 2018, 9:49 a.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

Are you talking about Steemit? Or another site built on the Steem blockchain? Unless things change, "one post" is not going to raise much past 7 days. I guess you are loosing me when you are claiming to be "raising funds for a project." How do you raise funds for a project that is already completed and posted (enabled) to earn revenues after the fact?

Crypto-currency has become an appropriate metaphor for evolving human interaction. Monetizing the actual media is where the future is at.

We want our content Fast, Free, Cloud based and Confidential. Instead of driving web traffic to media in the hopes to sell ads, SMT monetized media, and its influence, is what will drive traffic to the site.

Shared Token Rewards allow entrepreneurs to set up business structures for, let's say, larger operations of content production involving more than one person.

One thing SMT doesn't account for is Click Bait(?) other than the initial $1 investment.

Digging the Rewards Pool... "which encourage[s ...] members to add value to the community through the built in rewards structure."

Sharing primed-user pools among affiliated networks will allow content authors more access to more sites and more eyes without having to branch out and create account profiles for each independent cluster on the network. Effectively, a built in digital networking agency. (Hopefully this will reduce Internet load by removing several copies of the same digital content from myriad websites.)

SMT in my opinion is a great step forward out of Commercialism back towards Humanism, in a round about fashion, albeit.

It's great to see more options being made available for indie filmmakers. In my opinion, it will lead to more innovation, more creativity and more diversity. In the past, I've been a big fan of crowfunding sites like Kickstarter as a way to involve "the crowd" in choosing what they want to see. Will have to give Smart Media Tokens a closer look... This is a brave new world for film.

Definitely a fan of Huxley. "Brave New World" is a dystopian sci-fi classic. Sort of surprised there has never been a major Hollywood adaptation of the book. At one point, I think Ridley Scott was planning to do a film version. Seems like "dystopian sci-fi" is very marketable these days. Maybe by the 100th anniversary of the book in 2032...

what is DTube

@brian-rhodes | Jan. 27, 2018, 8:12 p.m. | Votes: 0 | [ VOTE ]

D Tube is like You Tube only D Tube is built on the Steem Blockchain. When you post a video you should use D Tube. There is a small fee charged unlike You Tube but when you post on D Tube your post is automatically posted on your page and everyone in the community can see it. D Tube is new so there will be a lot more to come I'm sure. Google it. https://d.tube/ Good luck!

What is Dtube bro? And how to us the D tube?

D-tube is just like You tube but it is built on the Steem Blockchain. You post videos on D Tube and they appear in your blog on the site. It's still in beta but start using it. It will be the posting tool for Steemit and it will get better. You tube is yesterday. D tube is tomorrow!

Hi Brian, as a working film-maker I've been really interested in this and four months ago I wrote a really extensive proposal for a new Steemit model of Film Funding. I think you might find it interesting. I'd love if any of the ideas it contains could contribute to a prototype film funding model for Steemit.

Hi Brian, I really agree with you, SMT's are the perfect vehicle for film funding. I think the best way is for there to be "auction" style feature where people can bid on individual frames inside a film SMT.

In my post from four months ago I wrote about how the mathematics of such a model based on SMT's could work. In this model the individual frames of film in a feature in fact become it's money supply because just by rote of creating a film project of 120 minutes length you create 172,800 frames of film. Therefore the film's length in terms of frames becomes the finite money supply for the project, that can then be bidded on frame by frame in an Auction style context.

I think that if SMT's could pull this off then literally you would see thousands of new low budget and indie films being made every year. All supported by their own investor communities through SMT's, and I agree with you that SMT's are the obvious vehicle. In my article I did describe it as an ICO but what I meant by that was that the film itself is the equivalent to the concept of an ICO - as in the Film itself is the coin behind the film. I agree with you about the regulatory concerns of ICO's.

I think you'll find this article interesting considering everything you've just discussed. As a film-maker I would love to see this model of film funding be created for everyone's benefit. (Mine included) This article is from 4 months ago so I'm not posting it here to earn any money from it, but because the ideas are exactly relevant to what you are discussing and if it any way contributes to this discussion or to you or anyone else being able to build some kind of similar model like this on Steemit I would be one of it's most passionate advocates.

I see everything that you are talking about with SMT's as being the beginning of a whole new film industry, built from the ground up and free from the big Distribution companies being the only ones who decide what gets made and what doesn't.

If there are any ideas in this you or anyone else finds interesting or want to adopt or re-use please feel free to do anything you want with any of these ideas. If even one of them contributes to the eventual model that emerges I would be so happy!
