Tech Papers 2018: This paper presents a blockchain-based platform by Groupe Média TFO to simplify payments, revenue management, and compliance in content production and distribution.
Abstract
Alongside the creative challenge of producing and distributing great video content internationally, there is a huge administrative burden.
The contributors to the production – writers, director, actors, musicians, and more – all have to be paid. Sources of funding have to be reconciled, managed and in due course reimbursed.
Once the content is complete, then revenues must be collected from those who buy it – broadcasters, OTT services, other distributors, the packaged physical media supply chain, and even individuals. Some of those revenues will be retained by the producer; some will be passed on to the supply side.
