A little history...

In March 2022, Snoop Dogg revived the legendary Death Row Records label, bringing it to web3 and the creator economy for the first time. His genesis NFT drop, “High set a new standard for what community centered creativity looks like in the metaverse. Each of the 269 items in the Dogg on it: Death Row Volume 1 collection comes with complete usage rights.

 

Limited to only 500 editions, NiftyFilm was a proud collector of that genesis single on day one. With that, the concept for Long Beach Lifted was born.

Minted with Manifold

manifold logo

NiftyFilm is a firm believer in artist autonomy. All Ethereum-based work in the Long Beach Lifted collection is minted on a Manifold Studio-created smart contract. Minting with Manifold means the contract is owned and deployed by NiftyFilm at all times. It has the added advantages of the Burn & Redeem feature and the ability to box out marketplaces that don’t respect artists and artist royalties.

 

All items in the Long Beach Lifted collection feature 4.20% royalties at the current time, with VIP set up on-chain through Manifold Studio and OpenSea, our preferred marketplace for primary Ethereum sales. General admission tickets are minted and sold through an FA2 smart contract created on objkt.com for provenance and flexibility on the Tezos blockchain, with the same 4.20% creator royalty structure.

 

Film3 is a revolutionary experiment for filmmakers to build sustainable careers and the promise of a modest royalty for artists on secondary sales is necessary to bring this dream to fruition.

Here & Now is a revolutionary immersive experience for the senses only possible in web3. The intersection of cutting edge 3D technology and generative fine art in the digital realm, the titular Here & Now event is currently in its fifth incarnation, known as The Passage.

 

Known for their innovative minting events and impeccable curation, the Here & Now team led by Michael Beets & S.C. Wilson also create and offer 3D community metaverse galleries powered by oncyber.

 

NiftyFilm is proud to work with Here & Now to present the Long Beach Lifted project exclusively in their futuristic Black Box oncyber gallery.

Did you know?

Long Beach is home to the first real world use of Bored Ape Yacht Club intellectual property, a tasty little smash burger joint called Bored & Hungry on the corner of 7th and Junipero in the Rose Park neighborhood.

 

Using their BAYC and MAYC holdings, the owners have built a successful restaurant using the power of one of the biggest brands in web3. Bored & Hungry is featured prominently in the 1/1 “High” music video.
