MContent, the world’s first Watch2Earn, fully decentralised content ecosystem, is collaborating with Anurag Kashyap, one of Bollywood’s most sought-after writers/directors, to launch a unique mentorship and funding programme for aspiring filmmakers and content creators in India and neighbouring countries.
Kashyap is known for groundbreaking films such as Black Friday, Gangs of Wasseypur, Ugly, Raman Raghav 2.0, Manmarziyaan, and Bombay Velvet, is one of the country’s leading filmmakers and producers. Though he began as an independent artist, Kashyap quickly developed his own distinct brand of cinema with its own flavour and charm.
The program will be hosted on MContent’s MSeed platform, where content creators can apply by downloading MContent and then uploading a 2-3 minute pitch video. These videos are then viewed and voted on by the MContent community, which consists of consumers and investors from all over the world. The top-rated projects will then be shortlisted, with four chosen. The winners will be mentored by Anurag Kashyap and other leading filmmakers, and their dream film project will be produced and exhibited by MContent.
MContent founder and CEO Umair Masoom said that through this programme, the winning content creators selected will not only receive the funding required to bring their film projects to life, but will also gain invaluable experience working under the tutelage of an award-winning filmmaker. Anurag Kashyap is one of Bollywood’s finest, and his participation in this programme exemplifies the calibre of talent with which we at MContent are looking to collaborate on our unique #Watch2Earn content streaming platform and custom cinema for the metaverse, the MContent Cineverse.
MContent created the Watch2Earn and MSeed technology platforms to help aspiring filmmakers with funding and mentorship. In his inimitable style, Anurag Kashyap taped a special video explaining how the platform works and how to participate for the current programme.
