Synopsis#

Renew payout of $3,800 per FC for 7 cycles to Sage to continue to make on-demand artwork in addition create a series of promotional works that can be used as social posts with the ability to open in figma and break out components for a mix of use cases. Also create a Banny a day sticker/gif/meme.

Motivation#

The art and illustrations continue to be an important part of the Juicebox identity and we should continue to use the visuals for promotion and visibility purposes. I hope to continue to spread Banny and friends across the crypto community and beyond. The art/illustrations/character design brings people in, and makes people interested and curious about the protocol. I hope to make a series of Banny’s that can be parted out and the potential to create your own scene to use for social posts/ promotional material/visibility. I also want to just keep producing Bannys to pump into the ecosystem by posting a Banny a day and continue adding to Tenor and Giphy. 

The merch from ETH Denver was super successful and a great way to spread Banny to the people, I would love to plan more merch drops for other ETH conferences/events

Specification#

• Continue to add new illustrations/gifs to the tenor/giphy keyboard (Every download Giphy Sticker Extension on phone!) Also if you use Instagram there are a TON of Banny reacts :) • Continue to make illustrations that will be used by the visibility team /discord / twitter  • Create a Banny GIF/sticker/meme everyday (M-F)  • Create a series of promotional works of Banny that can be parted out in Figma, with blank areas for text and add you own info sections

Rationale#

People love Banny and friends and it’s important to continue to spread these characters around the ecosystem! Juicebox is complex and the art/illustrations can aid tremendously in conveying information and adding a visual break for project owners that are trying to understand/grasp the features. 

Art isn’t just an afterthought in Juicebox; it’s a fundamental pillar alongside its amazing contracts and front-end. It's the visual identity of Juicebox, and maintaining its appeal is crucial for attracting new followers.

Risks#

I don't create the art/illustrations people want

Timeline#

Effective immediately for the next 7 funding cycles GC 74
