The slate will offer investors exposure to Pressman's catalog of projects and give them early access to film productions. This means that investors can gain premium access to the whole production process of a film rather than wait until it's out on the market.
The slate will also permit investors to gain access to the production fee and a portion of their "net profit share."
Pressman Film plans to utilize Avalanche's blockchain to make the development slate available to users worldwide.
"By utilizing blockchain technology, we're offering filmmakers and investors unprecedented opportunities to address key challenges in the industry," said Marc Iserlis, Head of Film at Republic.
With tokenized films, Avalanche also plans to grant participants access to exclusive screenings, collectibles and credits on its blockchain.
AVAX is down 1.1% in the past 24 hours, stretching its weekly losses to -7.7%.
