Publication number: 20220382537Abstract: An embodiment comprises methods of managing and systems for processing media projects. The project processing system comprises a memory circuit and a hardware processor configured to execute computer-executable instructions. The hardware processor executes the computer-executable instructions to identify a first dynamic structure associated with a first media project and determine that a first user is permitted to view and modify details regarding the first media project on the first dynamic structure. The hardware processor also executes the computer-executable instructions to create a first data block representing a first transaction by which the first user agrees to contribute at least one service, good, or fund to the first media project and broadcast the first data block to a distributed network for validation of one or more aspects of the first transaction.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2022Publication date: December 1, 2022Inventors: Christopher J. Davis, Don Richmond, Corey Hertz, Bob Giargiari, Bryan Hertz, Kevin Hertz, Ian LeWinter

Publication number: 20220374803Abstract: An embodiment comprises methods of managing and systems for processing media projects. The project processing system comprises a memory circuit and a hardware processor configured to execute computer-executable instructions. The hardware processor executes the computer-executable instructions to: receive a request from a first user to submit a first media project, determine that a first user is permitted to submit the first media project, create a first data block representing the requested submission of the first media project, the first data block including a time stamp, broadcast the first data block to a distributed network for validation, and append the first data block to a first dynamic structure based on the distributed network validating the submission. The hardware processor also further executes the computer-executable instructions to store a copy of the first dynamic structure as and generate an image indicating proof of originality associated with the first data block.Type: ApplicationFiled: February 11, 2022Publication date: November 24, 2022Inventors: Christopher J. Davis, Don Richmond, Corey Hertz, Bob Giargiari, Bryan Hertz, Kevin Hertz, Ian LeWinter

Publication number: 20220358433Abstract: An embodiment comprises a method of managing a project. The method comprises storing information, received from a first user via a first user device, regarding a first media project in a first database based on account information provided by the first user. The method also comprises selectively permitting, via a first interface, the second user to identify an action to perform for the first media project, wherein the action includes viewing the first media project or providing one of financial support, creative input, creative services, and property to the first media project and providing a prompt to the first user regarding the action identified by the second user.Type: ApplicationFiled: December 16, 2021Publication date: November 10, 2022Inventors: Christopher J. Davis, Don Richmond, Corey Hertz, Bob Giargiari, Bryan Hertz, Kevin Hertz, Ian LeWinter

Publication number: 20220086201Abstract: An embodiment comprises methods of managing and systems for processing media projects. The project processing system comprises a hardware processor and a communication circuit. The processor receives a first request from a first viewer to view first media content, determine whether the first viewer is permitted to view the first media content, provide a first viewer interface to the first viewer permitted to view the first media content, the first viewer interface enabling the first viewer to stream or download the first media content, determine that the first viewer requests to share viewing of the first media content with at least one additional viewer, and enable the first viewer to share viewing of the first media content with the at least one additional viewer. The communication circuit provides the first media content to the first viewer and the at least one additional viewer for streaming or downloading over a network.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 23, 2021Publication date: March 17, 2022Inventors: Christopher J. Davis, Don Richmond, Corey Hertz, Bob Giargiari, Bryan Hertz, Kevin Hertz, Ian LeWinter
