\[Request\] Script for Miner Animation for Gamers - Willing to pay to produce

[quote name=“justabitoftime” post=“4154” timestamp=“1368797450”]
As part of a long-term mining initiative, I’d like to attract gamers to the world of mining. Similar to the ‘What is Feathercoin’ video, I will do a voice-over and animation that we can distribute to all the sites (in fact, we might even do a separate press release). I need help with the script… Here’s my initial thoughts:

1. Under 60 seconds
2. Briefly mention they can produce coins with their existing hardware
3. Maybe mention they can upgrade their machines and have resale value on the cards
4. Mining for Bitcoin requires ‘big rigs’, Feathercoin allows you to enter the crypto market
5. Create coins while your PC is just sitting there anyway
6. Point them to the Gamer section (needs to be created on the forum)

I look forward to your input. I’d like to get a script to the voice-over talent by mid next week. While this won’t solve our immediate hash issue, this will contribute to the long-term success.

Great idea!

Here’s something short I wrote. Maybe not perfect, but it’s a basis to build upon for those who wanna add to or adjust it :)

[quote]Want to put your gaming rigs to good use? Maybe make some extra dollars with it by doing absolutely nothing? Consider mining Feathercoins!

Feathercoins are form of cryptocurrency, or crypto for short. It uses processing power, from your GPUs, to verify the transactions. Miners, in turn, are rewarded with Feathercoins for contributing to the network. As gamers, the only thing youâ€™ll need is one of many free programs to allow your GPUs to mine on the network.

At the current reward rate, youâ€™ll make a lot more than the electricity it costs to run your GPUs. So you can keep your coins, spend them, or exchange them for dollars! It also gives you an excuse to upgrade your rigs while returning your investment on it as well.

This isnâ€™t just a gimmick. Come see for yourselves and check out the forums at www.feathercoin.com to get started and have your questions answered!

If those group of people are totally new to the world of cryptocurrency, we might need to direct them to (for instance) www.feathercoin.com/gamers.

Then on that page we should give them the info:

What is FeatherCoin?
What can you do with FeatherCoins?
?

Interested? Get started!

Yea maybe have something similar to the “About” page we have, but specifically for them with the contents they need to get started and get informed.

justabitoftime

Yes! Now we’re talking… keep going!

1. Create a ‘Gamers Making Coin While Asleep’ animation
2. Submit this along with a PR release to all related game sites
3. Pull them into the feathercoin.com/gamers section of the website
4. Have resources designed specifically to get them mining as quickly as possible

Love it!

Now… please help me write the under 60 seconds script for the animation. :)

Are you a gamer ?
Would you like to get that in-game credit or those new games at no cost to your own wallet?
Then create a Feathercoin wallet and mine some coins at no cost! (besides bills >w>; )
Feathercoin mining works by using your Graphics Card (and CPU) power to generate ---- Etc.etc.etc.

Maybe you could have a starters page for eBay users too. Those who’re on the hunt for bargins can also make some money with some of the hardware they buy and sell. xD

I like where you’re heading… I’m even willing to extend the faucet to those users. So for example, after we show creating a wallet, they can sign up on the forum and I’ll get some coin headed their way.

Keep tossing ideas!

Why not make it a bit funny, so it looks less like washing powder commercial? Gamers are or kids or adults with souls of kids, and we like to be amused :)

Something like animation of cool gamer at his rig…playing something (action on screen)…after he is done playing he goes away but his computer gets sad and bored (yes, make the computer have eyes). After that animation zooms on screen and mining starts while feathercoins fall out of the screen…then you can show how coins are exchanged for more powerful gpu or something and both computer gets a powerup and both him and gamer are happy…after thet you give instructions with link where to start and find out more.

Haha that’s funny. But yea a good balance of amusement and seriousness would probably be a good way to go about it in terms of the mood it sets.

Now, we’re talking. Please keep fleshing out this idea… I feel like this is the direction I want to head!
