The Complete Picture Project
Rebecca Grace is a filmmaker, an activist, and a close friend of Skycar. In 2017 she started “Complete Picture,” a nonprofit with a crucial mission: to tell the unheard stories of people facing long prison sentences for nonviolent crimes. Complete Picture makes films to help overburdened (and underpaid) public defenders advocate for commensurate sentences.
Stellar Case Study - Vibrant
Argentines face staggeringly high inflation rates, meaning the value of their paychecks can plummet within days unless they're converted to U.S. Dollars. Our 3rd case study for Stelllar follows Vibrant, a Brooklyn based startup that set out to tackle this problem, and how they use Stellar to do so.
Stellar Case Study - Dstoq
We recently finished a second case study film for Stellar, this time about their work with DSTOQ. In the process, we made some new production friends overseas, working with local crews in Liechtenstein (where DSTOQ is based) and in South Africa. Check out the film to learn how DSTOQ makes investing more accessible and affordable using the Stellar blockchain. Or, just watch for the gorgeous drone shots!
Stellar Case Study - Cowrie Tempo
"One of the fundamental reasons that it's difficult to make cross-border payments from Nigeria, is that the Nigerian currency, Naira, is not globally traded". Our 1st case study for Stellar bounces between aerial and ground shots of Paris and Lagos, following Cowrie, a Nigerian fintech company, and Tempo France, a Paris-based money transfer service -- and showing how they overcame this significant hurdle.
CCT Stories
Cheesemongers sell cheese. Bakers bake. Housekeepers keep houses tidy. And Project Managers in the Facebook Choice and Competition Team (CCT) manage projects regarding Choice and Competition...obviously. You probably don't have any more questions about what the CCT is – if you do, this video we made should clear them up.
