Proposal summary
TrueFi is undoubtedly one of the key players in the Ethereum ecosystem and beyond, but surprisingly we were unable to find any high-quality video content about the platform. The existing videos either mention TrueFi along with other protocols or describe the UI of the dapp and repeat common descriptions of the platform. We will be happy to fill this gap.
We offer you to make a video about how TrueFi works and dig deeper into the logic of the protocol. Using original illustrations we would like to explain the architecture of the protocol in simple terms and go deeper into how it facilitates uncollateralized loans, what is behind TrueFi DAO pools, how does on-chain credit scoring system work, what is the utility of TRU token and much more.
Who we are:
DeFi Teller is an educational resource that does the due diligence for the user by providing information about blockchain technology and decentralized applications (reviews, video explainers, on-chain data) in the most accessible way. By the way, we have already published a review about TrueFi, you can find it at Detailed TrueFi crypto app review by DeFi Teller.
What we are good at:
Writing scripts targeted at an audience with an average level of knowledge in the blockchain. We target people who have a basic understanding of how blockchain works, as well as a cursory understanding of the crypto market and its key players. Our viewer has probably already used dApps on the simple purchasing/trading/borrowing/staking level. Our task is to immerse this user deeper and explain in simple words what technology stands behind a particular project. In doing so, we take the presentation format very seriously and try to dig deep, figuring out what is under the hood of technologies and projects and what exactly makes them special. For example, this is how we explained what rollups are: What are Еthereum Rollups and How Do They Work? Rollups Explained in Simple Terms - YouTube
Creating distinctive visuals. The DeFi Teller team uses only original illustrations and takes a thoughtful approach to the process of video storyboarding. Our team of illustrators and animators works tightly with the editorial team, and the team of the project we’re reviewing.
Process:
The existing DeFi Teller videos were created by us with our own funds and were highly praised by the teams of the projects we were talking about. For example, the Polkadot video was added to the welcome pages of the Polkadot and Kusama documentation.
We would like to continue to talk about the most interesting DeFi projects and do so with nice graphics and quality scripts. We’re not looking for profits coming directly from the teams, nor are we looking to create entirely commercial videos, reserving the right to choose the topics and angle of their coverage. All we need is to cover the cost of the video and support us in distributing the content (retweets, adding to documentation, and so forth).
The video creation process is as follows:
-Writing script;
-Creating storyboard;
-Recording voice-over;
-Animating the video;
-Publishing the video on DeFi Teller resources (website, Youtube channel, and Twitter).
Timeline:
The timeline of the video depends on its budget. Without expanding the design team, and given that edits and comments from the team will be provided promptly, we can produce one video in about 3-4 weeks.
Input expected from the TrueFi team:
The team/community reviews the script and gives notes;
The team/community reviews the storyboard and gives notes;
The team/community reviews the final draft of the video and gives notes;
Help in promoting the video (e.g. on social media or in the project documentation).
Cover the cost of video production.
Budget:
Our team will be able to give you an accurate estimate of the budget only after the script is approved since most of the cost of the video falls on the work of the illustrators and animators. A rough estimate is that on average one minute of video costs us $1,000.
The approximate cost of the final amount in percentage ratio looks like this:
Script
Writer - 5%
Editor - 7%
Storyboard
Illustrator - 25%
Designer - 16%
Supervisor - 7%
Animation
Designer - 30%
Supervisor - 10%
