Claynosaurz
Community-owned IP project that originated as an NFT collection and is expanding into animated entertainment through a co-production partnership with Mediawan Kids & Family. Notable for structuring the deal as a co-production (preserving IP control) rather than a traditional licensing arrangement, and for choosing YouTube-first distribution to validate audience before engaging traditional TV/streaming buyers.
