New World Cinema
Start date: Sep 1, 2015, End date: Aug 31, 2016 PROJECT  FINISHED 

The New World Cinema Cultural Exchange (NWC) is an ungeoblocking and payment system for European films that can deliver a single market agenda while maintaining the digital film distribution business and minimum guarantee mechanisms which fund the films. In other words, with the NWC everyone in every country can watch European films at any time, not being bothered by being blocked because of territorial license deals. With the NWC platform, the online consumer will not feel the geoblocking and the distributor will get their share of revenue. A single market is vital because webtraffic is fundamentally multinational but buying content licenses for each territory is expensive (especially for VoD’s who rarely run a profit) and economies of scale favors the U.S media giants. But with the NWC platform, European web and content providers can reach a broader / younger online audience without the associated costs. NWC is the only platform able to satisfy both agendas without the need to bear the costs of directly acquiring world or territorial licenses. The NWC system links multiple content owners per film through NWC's easy to use content owners' rights management site. Through the NWC film cloud, territory tracker (which identifies from which country people are buying and watching films) and payment gateway, any Video On Demand provider, Website, Social Network page or Online App can host a film and anyone can PPV on any device (in SD or HD).By systematically ungeoblocking content and providing a 30% payment per sale for the host/affiliate, NWC is an incentivised online film distribution scheme - enhancing film placement, direct film marketing and user recommendation amongst social networks.People can host content online, access content online and content owners receive payment through NWC's built in territory tracker. All on-line.
