Summary

We are producing a 15–20 minute documentary capturing the culture, experimentation, and coordination emerging from communities operating on Nouns Builder during ETH Boulder and ETHDenver 2026.

This project is currently proposed to Nouns Builder DAO as a broader ecosystem production. That proposal establishes baseline funding. The final scale and polish of the film evolves based on co-sponsorship participation from featured communities.

Gnars DAO will be featured prominently in the documentary, including:

  • Coverage of Gnars community presence at ETHDenver
  • In-depth exploration of Gnars’ community creator coin experimentation
  • Illustration of pairing creator coins with the GNARS community token
  • Extended coverage of the Skate Across Africa project
  • Interviews with Gnars contributors and participants

We are requesting $750 USD from Gnars DAO as a co-sponsor to support:

  • Craft services
  • Production kit fees
  • Expanded post-production capacity

This same co-sponsorship structure is being offered to additional Builder-based communities featured in the film.


Larger Budget Context

The fully scoped production budget is approximately $5,000 USD. See full proposal to Nouns Builder

The Nouns Builder proposal establishes baseline execution (~$3,000 USD equivalent).
Co-sponsorship contributions allow us to:

  • Expand interview depth
  • Increase production polish
  • Strengthen post-production refinement
  • Enhance distribution and reuse

Gnars’ contribution directly strengthens the quality and depth of its representation within the film.


Why Gnars Is Central to This Story

Gnars is not just a participating DAO — it represents forward experimentation within the Builder ecosystem.

Specifically:

Community Creator Coin Innovation

Gnars’ model of pairing creator coins with the GNARS community token demonstrates:

  • Experimental token alignment
  • Incentivized cultural participation
  • Hybrid creator + DAO value loops
  • Near-future coining mechanics that Builder is evolving toward

This is a live example of token experimentation in motion — not theory.

Documenting it allows the film to illustrate what the protocol enables when culture and incentives intersect.


Skate Across Africa

The Skate Across Africa initiative is a powerful, real-world example of:

  • Athletic sponsorship through decentralized coordination
  • Community-funded cultural impact
  • Global public goods alignment
  • Onchain-backed cultural expansion

It embodies the type of sponsorship and athletic experimentation that Gnars uniquely facilitates.

This project visually and narratively anchors the film’s exploration of what decentralized communities can accomplish.


What the $750 Covers

Gnars’ contribution will be allocated toward:

  • Craft Services
    Crew meals and production sustainability across shoot days.

  • Production Kit Fees
    Camera, audio, and lighting equipment used to capture interviews and Gnars-related coverage.

  • Expanded Post-Production Budget
    Additional editing refinement, sound cleanup, and finishing polish.

This ensures:

  • High-quality interviews
  • Clean audio capture
  • Stable, cinematic visuals
  • Thoughtful narrative integration of Gnars’ token experimentation and Skate Across Africa

Without co-sponsorship, coverage would scale proportionally.


What Gnars DAO Receives

If approved, Gnars DAO will receive:

  • Prominent feature within the 15–20 minute film
  • Dedicated segments on creator coin experimentation
  • Extended Skate Across Africa coverage
  • Short-form derivative content (60–90s, 30s, 10–15s clips) specific to Gnars
  • Reusable raw footage (where appropriate)
  • Attribution as a co-sponsor
  • Inclusion in distribution strategy and future screenings
  • Potential integration into onchain minting strategy

This becomes a durable Gnars cultural artifact — not just event documentation.


Strategic Alignment

Gnars operates at the intersection of:

  • Athletic culture
  • Creator experimentation
  • Token innovation
  • Decentralized sponsorship
  • Builder-native governance

This documentary captures exactly that.

By participating, Gnars DAO:

  • Ensures its innovation is clearly documented
  • Demonstrates live coining experimentation in context
  • Strengthens ecosystem-wide visibility
  • Invests in shared cultural infrastructure

Closing

The Nouns Builder proposal establishes the foundation.
Gnars’ contribution increases narrative depth, production quality, and long-term impact.

This co-sponsorship format is being extended to other featured communities.

Happy to refine scope or clarify allocation as needed.
