MDM Project Development Funding
10|09|2021 – We are very pleased about the commitment of the Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung for the project development of our pilot “Climate XChange – Where Worlds Collide Vol.1: Expedition to the Arctic” funding an amount of 50,000.00 €! This enables us, together with our partners Lumalenscape and blendFX, to convert the developed script into a production plan in preparation for production and to further develop our first demo version so that we can make it available for download in current popular app stores. In addition to the demo, a video tutorial is also to be created that illustrates the use of the app with tablets. With the help of the digital agency WeAreSilk, a comprehensive marketing concept for the app is being developed. All of this takes place parallel to the crowdfunding campaign that we create and plan together with the Fraunhofer Institute. We are very happy and look forward to the next few months – many thanks to the Mitteldeutsche Medienförderung!
