Summary of Proposal

We want to produce a short documentary about Devcon and the Ethereum developer community.

Abstract

This proposal is about creating video content to promote what is arguably the best part of Ethereum and an unfair advantage that Ethereum has over other L1 chains - Devcon and the Ethereum developer community.

So we will spend this Devcon talking to and interviewing as many developers and community builders in the Ethereum community to produce a 10-15 min documentary about it.

Motivation & Rationale

One big thing that Ethereum has going for it, but is often underappreciated - is the Ethereum developer community. Devcon recordings are what got me into Ethereum back in 2016, and I think Devcon is the heart of the Ethereum developer community. No price talks, no shills, just building.

We think this is something worth explaining and highlighting.

Implementation

We‘ll be interviewing people about their experience at Devcon, why they are there, the community and culture surrounding Ethereum, and how things have changed from Devcon 0 to Devcon 7 Bangkok. Besides Devcon itself, we‘ll also be talking about early presentations and promises, comparing it to where we are today.

We plan on recording footage around the venue and interviews for a few hours per day, then edit it down into a 20-30min documentary that tries to explain the culture and impact of Devcon as well as Ethereum as a whole.
