DREAM - Distributor royalties efficient automation management

英国电影业在所有银幕行业的支出分别为1.72万亿GB和79万亿GB(BFI2018)。然而，该行业(英国和全球)在实践中缺乏基础设施和自动化。内容分销商拥有越来越多的图书馆，并增加了对受益人的报告义务。在支离破碎的融资格局和多种分销渠道中，版税计算非常复杂，总代理商团队需要可扩展且高效的流程。新浪新冠肺炎带来了发行商之间更加激烈的内容竞争、人才诉讼的频繁以及监管机构的推动，强化了内容发行商提高效率的需求。FilmChain要求研发人员为SaaS版税管理平台创建原型，以实现版税计算和报告的自动化，并与英国分销商一起进行试点。

The UK film industry spend was £1,72bn and £7,9bn across all screen industries (BFI2018). However, the industry (UK and global) lacks infrastructure and automation in its practices. Content distributors have growing libraries and increased reporting obligations to beneficiaries. In a fragmented landscape of financing and multiple avenues of distribution, royalty calculations see huge complexities, and distributor teams require scalable and efficient processes. Post Covid-19 brought harsher competition for content among distributors, frequent lawsuits from talent, and the push from regulators, consolidating the need for content distributors to build efficiencies. FilmChain requires R&D to create a prototype for a SaaS royalties management platform to enable automation of royalties calculations and reports, and pilot it with a UK distributor.
