MILC and the Film Industry
The integration of Web3 in the film industry –Film3- alleviates this problem, and MILC with its services has definitely blurred the lines between movies, festivals and Web3 technology. With its main focus on how content are created and shared, Media Industry Licensing Content MILC has already successfully launched a film on the metaverse space and planning to do more.
Recently, MILC collaborated with Bad Blood Productions, based in the UK, to launch a film on the MILC metaverse platform last Halloween. A collection of posters and concepts art from the movie ‘Sacrilege’ from the Bad Blood Studios were all hosted on MILC Art Tower.
Individuals and fans of the horror saga were amazed at the truly terrifying horror pictures on MILC’s Art Tower, and this definitely sets the tone for the future of partnerships between films and Web3 technology.
The Future of Web3 and Film
At the center of MILC’s purpose is its goal to connect content creators of all kinds, including filmmakers, musicians, and gamers with their audience in an even more efficient way. Achieving this goal is now on the horizon for the company as they aim to launch their first-ever international film festival on their metaverse. This puts them on a path to becoming one of the best platforms for Web3 content creators and audiences as well.
The company is hosting their very own film festival – The Alpha Film Festival, in partnership with Film Verdict led by Eric Mika. Working with renowned and famed publications, including the Hollywood reporter and Variety, they aim to bring more diversity and originality to the whole process.
The Festival is centred on the audience and filmmakers, giving them a look into the world of metaverse and what the future holds for film and Web3.
