Please describe your proposed solution.
When I got to see Charles videos I also got hooked by the message and energy and especially by his life mission to create better systems for all. At my elderly age, I saw many inspiring leaders and Charles is definitely one of them. This was my entry point into blockchain and Cardano. When I started to interact with the Catalyst community I found a place where my experience and creativity could support the ecosystem growth.
First I started with creating the hoskintoons.com NFT project, which was also recognized by Charles in one of his videos
and I am looking into using my expertise to promote Cardano in a unique way and also through migrating projects from Ethereum Caricature for migration The idea for this proposal is Caricature for migration, a weekly caricature (Caricature) that will show the advantages of the Cardano blockchain compared with Ethereum. This proposal will focus on a timeframe of 12 weeks and will therefore produce 12 caricatures. Subjects could include Gas fees, Carbon emission, community with a purpose and moer. Doing it in a creative way could have a huge impact, reach a greater audience and generate curiosity.
We will participate in a few after townhall sessions in order for the community to help us find subjects in which we can do some caricatures. This will allow us to talk bout actuality but also use the ideas of the community through our Caricatures.
In order to get the best results, we will get the help from Raz and Cole which are two Challenge team members from the Film and Media challenge (Fund 8) and part of Sustainable ADA, they will help us for all the marketing and advertising area of our proposal.
Here are a few examples made for Fund 8, and there is a possibility to check the rest of the work of Shlomo Cohen on : <https://shlomocohen.com/show/CaricaturAda>
Please describe how your proposed solution will address the Challenge that you have submitted it in.
Why is it important? Many projects are stuck on EVM-based blockchains like Ethereum and are looking for an escape. Cardano can be faster and cheaper to use.
The goal of this proposal is to reach out to the Ethereum community in a creative way and show them the advantage to come on board.
What does success look like? Projects who were either planning to or did launch on an EVM-based blockchain deploy in the Cardano ecosystem and can do so easily.
By providing the information in a creative way, we will be able to reach out to larger audiences with the key message to drive migration of projects.
What are the main risks that could prevent you from delivering the project successfully and please explain how you will mitigate each risk?
There are not any major challenges for the creation of the Caricatures.
One key challenge could be to set up the storyline, find key areas we want the Caricatuers to represent the strength of Cardano and the connecting line between each weekly caricature. This will be mitigated first by the vast experience of the proposers and second by having some community brainstorming sessions at SWARM post town hall.
All the interest from the Ethereum community need to be channelled to suitable “welcoming” channels. We will discuss this with the community at the after townhall meetup and come up with selected sources to share in our website, with the media brief as well once interest arise.
Another challenge we are considering is how to be able to generate revenue so the work could continue for a longer period of time. We will evaluate NFT models for it.
