Shibuya is not your typical Hollywood production studio. The storytelling side of things is built entirely using web3. And the inspiring team behind it is none other than wildly successful NFT artist pplpleasr, renowned concept designer/artist Maciej Kuciara, and experienced developer Jacky Wang.

Decentralized storytelling is a web3 creative model for crowdfunding production via NFTs/tokens. Choose-your-own-adventure storytelling, dynamic credits, character development all done using the power of web3. Hear more of Shibuya’s other grandiose ideas and so much more in the episode!
