Welcome to Episode 2 of the Zero Rights Reserved podcast from The Noun Square collective, in which hosts Toady Hawk and Jack Wyldes interview Supriyo from Atrium and chat all about The Rise of Blus: A Nouns Movie.
Learn about why he decided to transition from a career in tech to making ambitious animated films with a remote team, what drew him to build in Nouns DAO, and what it’s like to make a movie for a decentralized studio with 400+ bosses!
Part 2 of the movie is in production now, and we also got some tasty alpha about what to expect.
