Creating a Tarot Deck as a 78 card interpretive movement collection:
Procedure:
Capture a minimum of 30 seconds of video, representing the essence of a card, while bearing in mind the original style and content of the Rider Waite deck.
You will want to take a look at the card that you are embodying for that day, and meditate on it, look up a handful of card interpretations that inspire you, read some descriptions.
When you've got the idea in mind, capture at least 30 seconds of footage where you do your best to represent that idea.
I'd also like you to come up with a brief VLOG explanation for what you felt about the card, and why you chose to represent it like you did.
No need to edit any of these.

I would also suggest breaking the task up into sections for thematic purpose.
Major Arcana - The Fool's Journey [22 Cards]
Minor Arcana - Summary Here [14 per Suit]
Broken down into four sections:
.:.
Upload each 30 second representation, and brief VLOG explanation to the following platforms:
Basically, your paid platforms.
If the 30 second clips are high enough resolution, then I'll use them as reference, if they are not high enough resolution, I will need to download them // or we can set space on a google drive.

You will want to take your time and not feel a need to rush into these things, because I am currently focused on finishing my Alice Slays the Jabberwock Graphic Novel, and will need to be focusing on that.
I'll come up with between 1-10 sketches per card, and we can try for a pace of once a week.
.:.
The final result will be basically a set of rough GIF or MP4 animations with accompanying music which will be turned into NFTs, and auctioned on ETH. Project will be multi-sig split equal parts for contributors.
When the project is complete, will be crowdfunded on Kickstarter for a physical deck, each card refined into a single image for painting.
Project could also be ported to Ethereum to replicate Serennu -- an online Tarot Reader.
In order to pull this off, we will need a developer, and we channel the donation funds into a multi-sig account. We would need to evaluate hosting costs, and find a developer who is interested.
But we won't have to worry about that for a year and a half.
The length of time for the project is a bit overwhelming, so for now, let's say:
We can take it easy, and we could have the major arcana or one of the suits done by the end of summer.
Please leave a comment when you get your account set up.
Think of this as a long term collaborative interpretive dance project.
