PROBLEMS
Every year, thousands of films are released, ranging from thrillers, to animated films for children. However, quantity is not always equal to quality. Even famous directors, actors, or popular studios do not necessarily make films that become masterpieces. And while new films are constantly being released, it is obvious that cinema is in a state of crisis. There are several reasons for the crisis in the film industry:
Monoton: There are not many new ideas readily available, or that are being used, for new films. Instead, the Hollywood film industry mostly takes advantage of franchises, releasing remake after remake, as well as sequels and prequels. While it appears easier to attract theatergoers with a film that has already been successful, what usually happens instead is that each new installation in a series ends up being worse than the previous one, and eventually viewers lose interest. Nevertheless, many viewers continue to follow the franchise out of curiosity to see what will happen to their favorite characters in slightly different plots.

Nevertheless, many viewers continue to follow the franchise out of curiosity to see what will happen to their favorite characters in slightly different plots
Profit versus Art: Many films are being made only to earn money, and not for the sake of art.
Meaningless, Formulaic plots: Major Hollywood studios, in particular, focus on releasing blockbuster entertainment that attracts audiences but lacks substance
Same Actors: Since an actor’s star persona mostly remains static throughout their career, and audiences expect to see the same actor in the same franchise, as well as similar plots, Hollywood directors often cast the same actors over and over again to attract the same audiences.
Piracy and Copyright Infringement: The ease with which films can be reproduced and distributed outside of a franchise agreement makes piracy and copyright infringement a constant worry and cost.
Aside from the problems in the mainstream film industry, independent film producers and filmmakers also have to deal with the added problems of working outside of a large studio or franchise, such as:
Limited target audiences: Independent producers do not have as much access to the international film market, which, according to Stephen Follows Film Data and Education (stephenfollows.com), has been a source of higher profits for studio blockbusters for many years.
The home entertainment market for independent film producers in the U.S., in particular, which previously accounted for a significant portion of revenue from independent films, continues to decline.
The income distribution model in the film industry is skewed in favor of third-party distributors as opposed to independent film producers.
It is difficult to find private investors or soft money from endowments and the government to fund independent films.
Assembling a professional team and the infrastructure required to produce a film is far more challenging.
A lack of platforms available for monetization of content. Existing crowdfunding platforms face multiple challenges such as copyrights and relative lack of interest from potential investors.
The lack of one integrated social platform where all participants in the independent film industry can interact.
SOLUTIONS
MoviesChain by TVzavr presents revolutionary technology that will help to solve all of the above-mentioned problems and more in order to reinvigorate the independent film industry. In particular, MoviesChain by TVzavr, with its use of blockchain technology, will focus on eliminating intermediary distributors between viewers and independent producers of quality films. Currently, third-parties end up with about half of the revenues, or about $10 billion every year. MoviesChain by TVzavr’s technology will eliminate this market inefficiency, as it revolutionizes the rental of independent films, thereby significantly reducing costs.
MoviesChain by TVzavr’s innovative model of content distribution will not only encourage independent filmmakers and producers to produce more quality films, but will also challenge the monopoly that is currently being held by major movie studios. This will make it easier for both new and established independent filmmakers to enter the market directly by drastically reducing the amount of money required to start production.
On MoviesChain by TVzavr’s platform, filmmakers will start earning revenues as soon as they complete work on their films. In contrast, the current financing of independent filmmaking is accomplished mostly through crowdfunding platforms, such as Kickstarter and Indiegogo, sites where there can be a considerable time to see a return on investment. However, the platform that MoviesChain by TVzavr has developed will optimize the process of financing independent films, and thus produce higher profits more rapidly, while also providing more accurate cash flow prediction models.
MOVIESCHAIN BY TVZAVR ECOSYSTEM
Our platform addresses all of the aforementioned market inefficiencies by completely decentralizing and disintermediating the independent film distribution industry.
MoviesChain by TVzavr’s streaming platform gives independent film producers the ability to rent or sell their projects to a global audience. Unlike other platforms, MoviesChain by TVzavr allows independent film producers to keep up to 90% of their profits.
ZVR TOKEN
ZVR Token is a one-of-a-kind blockchain-based cryptocurrency designed to deliver exclusive access to movies produced by independent film producers. ZVR Token is further designed to overcome inefficiencies in the independent film distribution industry by serving as a means of exchange on the MoviesChain by TVzavr platform. ZVR tokens will allow rental or purchase of video content on the MoviesChain by TVzavr platform, allowing everyone access to quality content. At its core, MoviesChain by TVzavr embedded, immutable, and transparent accounting practices, as well as attractive pricing, will restore trust and confidence to creators of original content, thereby securing artistic freedom of expression. In addition, to enhance the customer experience and gain viewer interest, the platform includes bonus rewards for ZVR token holders, allocating 10% of all revenues (including revenues in fiat and cryptocurrencies) from the platform to a bonus pool.
