Why would anyone want to own such a thing? Why does anyone care about Monroe's shoe? How did Michael Jordan become such a star in the advertising industry? "Porn influencers" are already a thing. Go and check the biggest in pornhub or elsewhere once.

What's the point of adding NFTs to porn? I know NFT people like to speculate with their digital pokemon cards but why would a pornkemon card go up in value?
What are the people producing porn getting out of the deal? How are you ensuring that the people who upload porn are the actual copyright owners? Has your company considered the risks of publicly tracking porn ownership when porn is considered illegal in multiple counties?

Reply to comment by FindAndDine in I spent ten years researching and writing a book about all the different things people do when their pets die. AMA! by eb_bartels
I have a whole chapter in my book about pets dealing with people's and other pets' deaths! So there are a lot of rumors/pop culture ideas that a dog or cat will eat an owner's dead body, but research has shown that doesn't happen nearly as often as people think. If an animal is starving and trapped in the house for weeks, maybe, or sometimes a dog will become distressed and try to "wake" an owner up and then chewing/gnawing can happen, but mostly it seems that pets seem to understand death in their own way. If an animal gets to view their owner's body, they seem to get that the owner is not coming back. The most heartbreaking stories for me are the ones where a pet doesn't understand the owner is dead and keeps waiting/hoping, like Hachiko in Tokyo: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hachik%C5%8D.

It’s even worse then that I think. People will clear a browser history when they live alone. I doubt most anyone would pay money (thereby linking their info one way or another) for basically free content and then have it tied to them.
NFT’s are a joke anyways.

A lot of people actually like to watch the same videos over and over again, especially if they have niche tastes, but it’s more about supporting your favorite creators at this point.
We’re on the Polygon blockchain so yes you can sell as you please.

Why would anyone want to own such a thing?
I mean, the whole idea about porn is about consumption and then moving on.
I cannot imagine anyone wanting to revisit the same thing over and over again.
And how, theoretically, would I ever be able to sell this, if I was so inclined?

There's a big problem in the industry of adult creators and artists not getting paid fairly for their work. Often times, they get paid for a day's work and never see any royalties from their work like performers in traditional film or music industries. OF has done a lot to help freelance adult creators make money, but we can do even more.
Our NFT marketplace gives adult creators a place where they can claim their profile, mint NFTs from their work, sell them, AND earn ongoing royalties from every subsequent sale.
For the consumer, it gives you the chance to support your favorite artists AND own a piece of their work!

So why combine the two? Seems like an odd pairing. Can’t be that many people who want to buy NFTs while they masturbate..

How do you feel about practical effects/miniatures place in the future of filmmaking? Can they make a comeback?
As a fan of 80's-90's movies, I think of you as an underappreciated legend. You were responsible for or had a hand in nearly every incredible effect in those movies I know and love.
As a huge Jurassic fan, I unfortunately have to agree they made the right call to go with CG for full bodied dinosaur effects but they way the decision was made and it's personal effect on you still gripes me to this day.
That being said though, I think there's a severe lack of practical effects in modern filmmaking that contributes to modern visual effects just feeling fake. I have hopes that practical effects can make a comeback by using filming techniques that allow more close in shots and situations where it can be used rather than simply using CG because it's easier.

Mr. Tippet sir, do you have any words of advice for working on discipline as a creator? I find myself equally overwhelmed as I am eager to pursue my writing but have trouble balancing my job and free time, thanks!

When I think of popular cultural work in the realm of unsettling stop-motion animation I think of you and Adam Jones' Tool music videos. Was there any time you two got together and talked about your separate work together? Also what other creators work do you think I should check out in this same creative area?

Thank you for your years of great work! What scene from any movie do you think deserves more appreciation and recognition than it gets?
