**Treasury Proposal :  the series of 10 news Videos – HOT DOT NEWS + Polkadot reviews of Functions and use cases - DOT Features**

**Short description:**
- The series of 10 news Videos “HOT DOT NEWS ”
- Learning videos: DOT Features - Polkadot, Kusama and ecosystem projects functions and use cases (**additionally, in case of approvement on Polkadot and Kusama both**)

**Detailed description:**

To many people blockchain in common and Polkadot in particular still remain some scarring and unclear concepts. We believe that Polkadot`s rapidly growing ecosystem is one of the most interesting pieces of blockchain now. That is why it's very important to spread information about Polkadot and keep people, united by the idea of Polkadot, informed.

**Polkadot Ecosystem PromoTeam in collaboration with Polkadot News **presents the series of 10 videos “HOT DOT NEWS ”.
These videos are short and highly informational, consisting of the very essence of the events that take place in Polkadot, Kusama and Polkadot ecosystem every week. 
The first video you can see here:https://t.co/AvQOtO8Sn0?amp=1 

During only several hours after uploading to YouTube it accumulated about **1K views, proving that this theme is interesting to people.**

**As soon as we apply to both Polkadot and Kusama Treasures, we plan to add learning blocks to the news videos. **Learning material will be short and given in an easy and pleasant way, in the middle or in the end of videos. Learning videos will be downloaded on YouTube separately also .

Subtitles: To make it easy to understand information from our learning and news videos they will be covered with subtitles in English/Russian and maybe other languages .

**Who we are:**	

We are the experienced promotion and video production makers. We collaborated with many Polkadot ecosystem projects, like Plasm Network, Phala Network, Bifrost and others. We prepared the qualitative videos - please have a look at our YouTube channel:  https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCrvyFYM29oQ-EAejZgYqmWA/videos

Treasury Proposal :  the series of 10 news Videos – Polkadot Friends + Polkadot reviews of Functions and use cases 

**Here is the results of our job -  https://readymag.com/joaji/parachain/ 
We did this website like presentation and links to sources, we also create the templates that can be used without 3d animation skils and the links also included. It will be cool if it will be added to Polkadot GitHub for people to use.**

**Short description**: In the crypto industry, marketing means a lot. Various blockchain ecosystems try to get a spotlight, to get followers, to get developers. Half of any product’s success depends on its features and quality, but half of it also depends on marketing. In marketing, whatever it is, illustrations, educational videos or articles, the eye-catching visual side is crucial, due to the short attention span of every internet user. That’s why we, as Polkadot PromoTeam, work hard to bring new users to the ecosystem, and to give them the best visuals possible. We got top-notch designers working with us, and we want to give the whole community some tools to improve their visual language. 

As we see, the majority of graphics included in pretty much every marketing material about Polkadot features the Polka scheme created by Gavin Wood. So we thought that it might be a good idea to start from that. We created an accurate 3D model of the Polkadot scheme, with blocks, parachains and many small details. 

We want to share this model with the whole community, and we suppose it can be used in many ways: articles, videos, presentations, infographics, ads. Its high quality will definitely attract the attention of many users. All of us here want Polkadot to succeed - that’s why we want our ecosystem to stand out with its marketing among the competitors. 

The model will be available in Blender, jpg and other popular formats (other formats will be sent upon request). We’ll add these files to Polkadot Github.


**Reward**: We are apply for tip and ask $3,500 or more in DOT or KSM

It took us nearly a 2 weeks to create this model. An experienced 3D designer takes $50 per hour, thus it’s more or less a fair price. We want this 3D model  to be used practically by the community. Thus we propose it to the Council. The allocation will be used to compensate for the costs for 3D modelling. If this proposal succeeds, it will show us that the work we do is appreciated. If it doesn’t, well, it won’t change anything for us. We hope you’ll like it.
