A debut, innovative NFT collection Vintage Rogan — featuring 7 newly-cut film clips of a vintage Joe Rogan character going off on all things marriage — was just dropped by E Media Labs. The first clip, in the seven-clip series, is entitled It’s a F*cking Stupid Idea! And true to form, Rogan’s character dishes out advice for the ages: “the only reason people get married at all” and “is she really your best friend?” The collection was created for fans, collectors, and for anyone who simply wants to own Joe Rogan’s epic takedowns of the very idea of marriage.
With follow-on titles like It’s Weak Sh*t, You Want to Breed! and You Lose All Your Sh*t, Dude, this Joe Rogan film clip collection reintroduces America’s favorite controversy-machine as the pure comic he truly is. Each NFT in the collection consists of 2 items bundled together: a video of one of newly created scenes + a uniquely designed cover-art piece. 101 uniquely stylized cover-art pieces are paired with each new clip — making a collection of 707 limited-edition NFTs.
With this first-of-its-kind collection, created by the team who created the original filmed material, E Media Labs is offering a piece of film history to the public — in the form of NFTs — to buy, trade, collect, flex or exploit. Each limited-edition NFT confers ownership and usage rights — so the exclusive group of Vintage Rogan owners are free to use their NFT for personal and commercial purposes.
“With this specialized NFT collection, not only can you add ‘film-owner’ to your bio, owners will also get first-look access to the next drop in the collection series. There are 7 vintage film clips to collect,” said E Media Labs co-founder, e.Grey. “Plus, Vintage Rogan owners will get an all-access membership to the future Sam’s House Comedy Club. We expect it to be the wildest comedy joint in the metaverse.”
E Media Labs was formed to re-introduce vintage film footage to a new generation, in a new way. Instead of going the traditional route of licensing these legendary film clips to distributors, they decided to offer ownership and usage rights directly to fans and collectors through the innovation of NFTs.
Co-founder, j.Blockchain, previously with Athena Bitcoin, has consulted with multiple Blockchain and crypto projects over the last 5 years and draws inspiration from intellectual property thought leaders like Professor Andrew Hinkes, Olta Andoni, Chris Williams, Justin Steffen, Nelson Rosario, among others, with whom she’s collaborated over the years in some form or another. “There are so many innovative uses for blockchain. But, to fuel mass adoption, we’ve got to reach those on the periphery — and bring them in a half-life!” she stated at the 2020 Boston Blockchain Association.
“When I look at my colleagues Josie Bellini, an extraordinary crypto artist, and I heard Lewis Cohen and his client young George speak at WyoHackathon Blockchain Stampede, I was inspired to use the technology beyond finance. Luckily, I paired up with project developers hagenation and e.Grey a year ago, and began working on Vintage Rogan shortly thereafter,” she added. It was only natural that “mixing film, comedy, art, pop culture, a little crypto education, and of course, Joe Rogan — via NFTs” was a project she couldn’t pass up.
“Creating this collection was an adventure in and of itself,” she said.
“We inserted multiple subtle nods to the most memorable crypto moments. We were hoping to seed a bit of curiosity into crypto history and culture via what else — stealth education!” “We’re also excited to see the unexpected and innovative things that an exclusive, new group of owners will do with this material,” added e.Grey.
