Click Play (above)
After months of hard work, we are very excited to launch the @sndbox intro video! If you haven't already, take a look (above) and check out the announcement post via @sndbox right here. Next week we'll be posting another video exclusively for DTube - breaking down each scene and speaking to the larger purpose of this animation project. A huge thank you to the mighty talented Humdinger & Sons for collaborating with us!
Applications for Cohort 2 are now open. And for this round, the incubator is going to run very differently.
We’ve learned a lot from our first Cohort (January 1st - June 1st). Through the constructive feedback of our alumni we’re excited to introduce a new and improved 4-month program complete with weekly assignments and community challenges. Each Cohort member will be tasked with collaborating alongside their peers, alumni and the broader cryptocurrency public. Cohort 1 gave us an opportunity to explore what programming worked, and what needed improvement. Looking ahead we’ve created an action-packed syllabus full of cryptocurrency lessons, resources, and industry-wide blockchain discussions with experts and newbies alike.
Artful Storytelling can Reinvent Cryptocurrency
Our team was initially attracted to Humdinger & Sons through their work on the Brave / BAT video. This team is already fluent in the cryptocurrency landscape and able to articulate complex issues through beautiful and elegantly simple visuals. Their work is starkly different than the traditional "explainer video" you might see being commissioned by every ICO in existence. With this video we wanted to create something uniquely relatable, contemporary, and human.
Communities like those powered by Steem are deeply undersold across the broader cryptocurrency discourse. It's sexy to talk finance and price action, but the real disruption is far deeper than that. This short video doesn't sell riches... it tells a story that real people can relate to. If the blockchain ecosystem truly wants to forge a new future, it needs to stop using old-world sales pitches.

With this video, we'll be targeting and recruiting new creative and entrepreneurial talent into the Steem ecosystem. Like the Brave video, "the Sndbox intro" will be a major new resource (for us and everyone) to articulate just how important and disruptive the cryptocurrency ecosystem is becoming.

I am really happy to hear this. I was about to complete the form on sndbox site. but i needed to ask a question.
I have been on a promo-steem project called @Steemcamp for over 5 months aimed to on-board new talented and creative individuals.
The project will be coming to an end with its grand finale on the 2nd - 8th of July.
My question
Is it possible to update my application after the end of the event?
or I should wait till the event finally conclude so then i can submit all my POW ?
Kindly give your suggestion. thanks
Its your Blockchain Entertainer @michaelcj
Yes! Best to wait to submit the application until after your event. The application deadline is July 15th. Thanks for your support and interest in the incubator @michaelcj :)
