Win a $10,000 Grant With the Film.io Go Score™ Creator Challenge

During the Sundance Film Festival, we announced public access to the Film.io platform, the Go Score™ Creator Challenge, and upgraded community governance with  Film.io DAO 2.0. Today, we’re back with more information about the challenge and how you can increase your chances of winning funding towards your next project. 

As a filmmaker, you’re eligible to participate in the  Go Score™ Creator Challenge when you submit your project on our platform. In line with the Global Creativity Foundation’s dedication to  provide creators support  throughout the entire film production process, the GCF has graciously introduced the $10,000 Go Score™ Creator Challenge during the Film.io public access event at Sundance. Starting January 20th, 2024, every film uploaded to the platform  is automatically entered into the challenge. Read on to learn about how the challenge works.  Creators don’t wait — Sign up and submit your project pitch on Film.io today to enroll in the Film.io $10K Go Score™ Challenge. Submitted films must qualify with Film.io standard guidelines and policies for new project submission.

What is Go Score™ anyway? The Go Score™ is a key part of the Film.io decentralized filmmaking ecosystem. The unique Go Score™ algorithm evaluates various engagement and participation metrics and forecasts the potential success of creators’ projects on Film.io. More specifically, the  tool aids creators on our platform in gauging the effectiveness of their promotional strategies and allows them to adjust course, if necessary. It also assists producers, film investors, and other stakeholders within our ecosystem to identify creators and projects to support.

Compromising multiple stages, the  Go Score™ assesses  fan involvement, token stakes, project reviews, and more. It consolidates indicators of enthusiasm and momentum to rank projects based on their developmental potential. This marks a notable shift from traditional project evaluation  methods and introduces transparency, user reputation, and fan-driven validation into the film greenlighting process.

One way to be proactive in this challenge is to promote project awareness. We encourage you use ‘#FilmioCreatorChallenge’ on social media and share your participation in the challenge.  Realizing your dream is largely dependent on your belief in its potential and your ability to see it through. As a creator, you do your part by promoting your project. Use the Go Score™ rating to know how effective your promotion is. Optimizing your approach for a better Go Score™ can help you maximize your promotional efforts while keeping producers, executives, and fans in the loop, and on alert. 

Get your community involved and let them know that it’s as simple as creating a Film.io account and interacting with your project. We recommend sharing your personalized link from the platform to invite others and encourage them to join and support your project.

If you’re a bit shy about promoting your project on your social accounts, the good news is that the existing Film.io community has already begun to explore and support projects on the platform. It comes naturally to them.

In order to ensure a seamless participation in the Go Score™ challenge, please note  all projects submitted to the platform must adhere to Film.io platform guidelines. Eligibility for the Go Score™ challenge is applicable only to projects that have been successfully submitted and accepted by Film.io DAO admins.
