High quality art and high quality narrative art can scale meme-wise better than almost anything. If it can wrangle bigtime distribution, more so. If the quality isnt there, we can adjust prospectively. I am excited to bet on the Atrium team to deliver on this Prop, given what they delivered on 195 which was better than I expected, and if they do, then were more likely to fund the next Prop to continue.

The Atrium team have created one of the most delightful pieces of Noun’ish art and culture to date with Prop 195. There was an attention to detail and deep understanding of Nouns culture that made me smile with every frame. Each one of these episodes represents and opportunity to proliferate the meme and taken together as a feature film will represent an achievement very few other organizations can match.

Clear yes to me - Atrium are great builders and creatives, and their recent short film was definitely a success. Seems obvious to me that we should continue funding them to make great Nounish content, and I think the long-term result of one Nounish movie is great to work towards.

Absolute banger of a proposal. Making nouns content is one of the things I think the DAO should strive to heavily fund. This proposal just hits all the boxes: Decentralized infrastructure; proven track record; fair ask and thorough proposal. https://cbites.substack.com/p/active-governance-noun-582-3

We are voting YES on this prop because we believe it is important for us to begin funding Nounish media, we appreciated the Atrium teams work, and would like to see more of it. Were optimistic and excited about this work but would like to see the results of this prop before funding more work - primarily, does this media succeed and spread outside of the Nouns bubble? Or is it only shared and enjoyed by currents Nouns participants? Regardless, attracting artists to create around Nouns requires kickstarting the flywheel and we are happy to support the Atrium teams work.

excited to bet on the atrium team here. theyve been incredible so far. cant wait to see the pilot! the budget for the whole feature film ($2.75M) would be one of the largest bets weve ever taken (would be about 6% of our $43M treasury), but Im happy to make that bet and fund it through if what we continue to see is top notch as we have seen in the past.

**FOR - 46 VOTES** **Toady_Hawk** | *YES* **RobotFishGirl** | *The only problem with the short was that it was short. This solves that problem. Im already hyped about this movie and the prop hasnt even passed yet!* **Benbodhi** | *Would love to see more from this team.* **Akva** | *Track record is the way, yes for me* **profwerder** | *The first short by this team was amazing! The level of detail and integration of nounish fun but in a way that it still accessible and enjoyable by normies is exactly what we need more of!* **Bigshot Klim** | *this team is doing great work and i look forward to seeing what they come up with next* **AGAINST - 5 VOTES** **Josep** | *I dont see a clear vision of how they want to successfully distribute this film, I also miss that they provide tools to know what is the real conversion of the film in new members for the DAO.* **byhardy** | *I love the idea of a Nouns movie. but I cant support this until I see more plans laid out about what happens once the movie is made, specifically marketing and how it returns $$ to the DAO. to me, droposals for portions of the film are just not enough to return funds to the DAO at such a high cost.* **ABSTAIN - 5 VOTES**

Voting NO on this prop. Nouns proliferation efforts have primarily been focused on what *we* think is cool vs. what the rest of the world thinks is cool. Id prefer we fund media with a more explicit POV and audience.

Imagine a world where voting does not exist. In this world, we would have no need for rules or principles. But in our world, voting is a reality. So we have a simple rule: we only vote against. We use a “Squad Vote” for each proposal. If more people vote against than vote for or abstain, we vote against on-chain. Otherwise, we abstain. This is our rule. According to the “squad vote” result for proposal 241, which is 13 for, 19 against and 13 abstain, we choose to vote abstain. Theres a lot of controversy surrounding this proposal, with only a four-vote difference between those against and those for/abstaining. Supporting Points: 1. Atrium has proven their production capability. With a previous proposal, they delivered a remarkable 2-minute video with impressive speed and content, standing out from previous video proposals with poor delivery in NounsDAO. 2. Atriums video is relatively cost-effective compared to other high-quality videos. Opposing Points: 1. For the same cost, ten meme shorts could have better reach. Nouns should focus on storytelling and creating memes instead of high-quality. 2. Proposal 195 video fails to demonstrate the teams storytelling ability. There are no memes or compelling stories, and there is no motivation for secondary creation and propagation. The video has only received 86 shares, 166 likes, and 40,000 views. Moreover, the TikTok link on Zora is invalid. The video appears soulless with exquisite 3D models but a flat and bland story. 3. Nouns Town in Proposal 195 has no Nouns elements. Upon inspection, the town is similar to small towns in any animated film, as if it were a 2-minute video assembled from past materials.

Nouns: A Movie is a proposal to fund the creation of a pilot episode for an animated series. The creators, Atrium, are asking for $125,000 for a 90-day peri od to cover pre-production, character development, scriptwriting, and the creation of the pilot episode.

<@686329614649393229> will you be releasing this CC0 and releasing the files like before?
This will be a really big undertaking, so we potentially could figure out a way to release important artifacts along the way for everyone. There is a world where if you don’t make the entire content CC0, you could potentially secure a distribution-based deal with a large partner which can bring in additional upside for the DAO & Atrium.

As part of one of these props could we do a Meebit like mint of all our nouns that is metaverse ready for when the metaverse comes?
Atrium made all the original characters available as free mints, rigged and ready for use in the metaverse. The idea of whitelisting Nouns for half a mint in return for funding and having all mint proceeds go towards funding the project is considered interesting and doable. This could potentially lead to characters being featured in a movie.
