A co-production between MContent and Villain Studios with Decrypt Media on board as executive producers, ‘The Web3 Wonderland’ (6 x 22’) follows, highlights and showcases six Web3 trailblazers and their groundbreaking ideas about the future of the internet. The series takes a closer look at the work of the people that help shape those changes – following the lead of some of the most successful investors and thinkers of the digital age.
The series is the latest MContent web3-focused factual series commission following ‘Blockchain Life’ a co-production between MContent, Insight TV and Villain Studios.
The series will feature exclusively on MContent’s web3 video streaming platform, the world’s first ‘Watch2Earn’ platform and fully tokenized collaborative content ecosystem with the purpose of seed funding, incubating and curating film makers and content producers around the world.
Phil McKenzie commissioned ‘Web3 Wonderland’ for MContent.
MContent is on track to offer over 1000 hours of content on the platform by the end of 2023. The business also produces original content, via commissions and co-productions with third party partners, focusing on a Gen Z audience.
MContent’s previous original productions also include documentaries and series such as ‘Beirut After the Blast’, metaverse dating show ‘Game Of Love’, ‘Hacking FiFA’ and F1 fan documentary ‘Pit2Paddock’.
MContent recently announced the appointment of former CuriosityStream executive Brandon Fong as their new chief of streaming business. The hiring of the well respected industry veteran demonstrates the commitment of the MContent board to strengthen its streaming business ambitions.
Fong will oversee MContent’s consumer facing streaming platform with responsibility for all revenue growth, marketing operations, product development, and user acquisition initiatives. He will also lead new business development and strategic partnerships that integrate MContent’s suite of web3 assets across SVOD, AVOD, FAST and transactional marketplaces. MContent is set to reveal a rebranded version of the streaming platform in mid-November.
