Project name: 3 E-books and Notívaga Dramaturgy Festival - 20 years of Notívagos Burlescos

Objectives:

Create 3 NFTs e-books with 3 plays by Associação Teatral Notívagos Burlescos through the publisher NADA DAO, which will be launched in a dramatic reading festival with three consecutive days, in celebration of the group’s 20 years of existence. The readings will take place in person at the GARAGE – Espaço de Cultura and online broadcast on the NEAR Hub and Youtube.

Description:

Our idea is to carry out in this month of September the creation of 3 NFTs e-books containing 3 plays from the repertoire of the Associação Teatral Notívagos Burlescos, which will be read and disseminated at the “Festival de Dramaturgia Notívaga - 20 years of Notívagos Burlescos”, held in commemoration of the group’s 20th anniversary, that is, a great literary celebration and of writers who composed or who make up the group today.

Through the dramatic reading of plays from our repertoire, we will reveal to the public a part of the history of the Notívagos Burlescos, which has a long history of artistic productions in the city, with which it also gave voice to historical characters of the city, such as Santa Ana Rosa, for example. In addition, the event will contribute to continue designing the NEAR ecosystem in the region, promoting its brand as a promoter of creative actions and a developer of solutions for web3 and blockchain.O evento presencial acontecerá no “GARAGE - Espaço Cultural”, que está se firmando como um espaço cultural alternativo, onde o público já o reconhece como estimulador da literatura e do teatro na cidade vinculado à web3.

Originally the project was designed to be MultiDAO, but as the funding by the Writer’s Guild is uncertain, we made adjustments so that it could take place through NADA DAO, as the constant activities of the Burlesque Night owls in the GARAGE, has attracted an increasing number of people who , consequently, has become more interested in the NEAR ecosystem. In the same way, the presentations of the plot readings have contributed to strengthen the integration of web3 with the physical world, also helping to demystify for the public the idea of being a difficult tool to be used or distant from reality. In other words, it has gradually strengthened the image of NEAR as an instrument to support the most diverse artistic initiatives on the web.

Funding proposal for NADA DAO:

Our proposal for NADA DAO is to contribute to the production of the festival itself and the creation of the three e-books of the texts read during the festival. Below we describe a little more about each action of this proposal.

E-BOOKs

As a way to diversify the records generated by the festival and strengthen the targeting of the public towards the NEAR ecosystem, we chose to create three NFTs e-books with the texts being read during the festival.
The texts selected for dramatic readings and to be published in e-book format are by playwrights who were or are part of the Associação Teatral Notívagos Burlescos, and represent different phases of the association’s history, so the selection of texts that we made has some particularities. and specific objectives.

1º E-BOOK - The first text is “Ana Rosa” (2005) by Robert Coelho, founder of Notívagos Burlescos. The play tells the story of a woman who at the end of the 19th century ends up being killed in a very violent way and becomes a kind of popular saint of the city of Botucatu. We even believe that reading her will reach a wide and diverse audience, as her story is well known in the city.

2º E-BOOK - The second text is “Chronicles of a chronic killer” (2005) by Marcos Mendes Maciel, who was also a very active member of the group and who is currently studying film scripts. The peculiarity of his text for us is that it is a monologue and it was a play that was quite successful in the years it was staged, still remaining in the memories of many people in the city.

3º E-BOOK – The third work that will be read is not yet defined, but it will be a work by João Alves, who has been a member of Notívagos since its inception and continues to make a career in theater in São Paulo, in the state capital, and with good projection among the capital’s artists.

We also remind you that all the actions foreseen in the project, when they are disclosed and shared on the networks, will always have the mention of Near Protocol, NEAR and NADA DAO.

With the festival and the publication of the works, it is also intended to carry out the onboard of the 03 authors in the NEAR ecosystem and create their NEAR Wallets, so that they can receive the royalties and contribute to the development of the ecosystem as a whole.

PRESENTIAL FESTIVAL AND TRANSMISSION

On each day of the festival, one of the texts that will be coined as an NFT e-book will be read, at NADA DAO.

Every day of dramatic reading held at the festival will take place at the GARAGE – Espaço de Cultura and will be broadcast live by the NEAR Hub, Youtube and social networks (Instagram and/or Facebook) of Notívagos Burlescos and, if possible, also through the channels of the GARAGE – Espaço de Cultura, which will be hosting the event in person.

As Associação Teatral Notívagos Burlescos is one of the few collectives in the region to maintain actions related to literature and theater in the region, with a trajectory in the theatrical language in the city, and one of the only theater groups to act on the web3; We believe that the event will mobilize around 30 people in person and 50 people online, per day of the event. Totaling approximately 240 people.

[FINAL REPORT]

Hello, how are you guys?

It is with great pleasure that I come to write the final report of our project. On the 30th of September and on the 1st and 2nd of October we had the festival event. We were able to perform it in person and also in the metaverse. It was our first action inside a theater on web3. But we’ve talked more about how it came about.

We would like to apologize, as there were changes to the schedule due to the delay in project approval. But, despite this, we managed to complete it successfully and in the maximum amount of time.

We move on to the report.

FESTIVAL

About the Notívaga Dramaturgy Festival, we had three days with 4 texts. At the last minute, we were able to talk to Sheyla Coelho, who was someone who had participated in the Notívagos Burlescos years ago, and to have the authorization to read her children’s text “The Strange World of Umbrellas”. So we also had in our event a text written by a woman. In terms of representation and scope of textual production for theater, for us it was a very good surprise, which was not in the original project, but which added a lot to the event.

The event had three days, in all of them there was the presence of the public and the authors. João Alves the author of the first day followed via online broadcast, as well as Sheyla Coelho. The authors Robert Coelho and Marcos Maciel were able to be present in the readings of their texts and contribute with debate and reports about the montages.

We had an audience present every day and an audience in our online broadcast. We also noticed that the audience present was very interested in the transmission in the metaverse. As we broadcast directly from the GARAGE- Espaço de Cultura, the audience present can see the theater in the metaverse and see how it turned out. The theater was built to broadcast the festival over two days. Our idea is to improve the architecture and layout of the theater in the metaverse and place the theater inside the NEAR metaverse. This was a problem we had as we walked into several DAO’s and even messaged NEAR Hub operators asking how we could get our metatheater into the NEAR metaverse. We even had a response after the event, however, for some reason or misunderstanding of the information we still couldn’t host the space on the NEAR Hub, we believe that for the next month this will be resolved.

Below we leave the link to access the playlist with the live streams from Youtube:

We also leave here the History Video made by C0D3 (thanks a lot for that kindness!!):

E-BOOKS

The e-books had their layout and cover art, as well as the event arts, produced by @johnfaus. The process was supervised by NADA DAO, so that it could be as consistent and attractive as possible, there were a few days of great exchanges and very enriching learning, reaching a result that left both us and the authors very satisfied. NADA DAO’s Mintbase and had their royalties and split revenue divided as follows:

Forever Royalties
30% to the author
8% for Burlesque Night Owls
2% for NADA Studio Criativo

Split Revenue
40.25% to the author
15.525% for Burlesque Night Owls
1.725% for NADA Studio Criativo

Below are the books that have already been minted:

“Ana Rosa” by Robert Coelho

“The pastor” by João Alves

“Chronicles of a Chronic Killer” by Marcos Mendes Maciel
https://www.mintbase.io/contract/nadastudiocriativo.mintbase1.near/token/224

Unfortunately, as the author Marcos Mendes Maciel is having difficulties in relation to the creation of his wallet, we minted the e-book “Chronicles of a chronic killer”, just for the sake of appreciation, as we will redo the minting putting his wallet in the royalties , as soon as we are available to personally assist you in this process. Upon completion, we will coin the work and update this report.

CREATED WALLETS

Throughout this process, we were also able to onboard some authors and professionals who worked with us. We are instructing them to apply directly to their wallets on NADA DAO’s Astro DAO, as requested by supporters. The following portfolios were created:

06 portfolios were created:

Robert Coelho (author): robertcoelho.near
João Alves (author): joaoalvesprodutor.near
Burlesque night owls (collective): burlesque night owls.near
Ana Martines (actress): anamartines.near
Vanessa (actress): vanessapetron.near
Marcos Mendes Maciel (author): in progress. Unfortunately the author did not save the recovery seed phrase and we will have to provide a new wallet for him.
Results and actions achieved

Below we list all the actions and results achieved throughout the project:

• Mintage of 03 dramatic texts, in the format of e-books, at NADA DAO’s Mintbase;
• Realization of the “Festival de Dramaturgia Notívaga”, with the reading of 04 plays during the 03 days of the festival;

We are immensely grateful to NADA DAO for supporting the project and saying that many people came to talk to us about NEAR and praising our action in reconciling theater, writing, independent art production, with the metaverse, web3. In addition to a desire to want other events and learn more about NEAR.
