Spike Lee Releases NFT Collection Based on His First Movie
Legendary filmmaker Spike Lee recently collaborated with The Visible Project to release the NFT collection of Lee’s 1986 full-length debut, She’s Gotta Haveit.
In the film, Spike Lee himself played Mars Blackmon, and a 3,945 NFT was created from the original frame. In addition, NFTs aim to express “unique production characteristics inspired by movies.” The NFT collection will be released on the blockchain on The Visible Project’s site. The Visible Project is a platform for filmmakers to communicate, share inspiration and stories, and find support. In addition, anyone who buys an NFT can vote for a movie funded by The Visible Project.

Spike Lee says NFT is a whole new experience

Web3 as a tool to achieve creative freedom
In summary, the main purpose of the new project is to decentralize and democratize the current film industry. Web3.0 seems to be a useful tool to achieve that. Habitat Labs, where Alexander Gorgi is a Web3.0 startup, said: Web3 can do that seamlessly. We provide our partners with the resources they need to foster communities, tell stories and inspire the next generation. “
