We are using the next generation of the internet to tell the next generation of stories.

Tinsel is where storytellers and audiences come together to change the future of TV, Film, and Gaming.

Storytellers and audiences aren’t getting what they want.

Storytellers want…

  • To avoid development hell
  • Access to resources and support
  • Creative freedom
A set of filmmakers looks on as a film shoot is happening.

Audiences want…

  • New stories
  • Expansive, more consistent explorations of their favorite worlds
  • Worlds on their own terms

What they get instead…

  • Tired sequels and remakes
  • Stories that lack continuity
  • Franchises that feel disconnected across experiences and products

Film and television are worth saving.

  • Box office receipts and streaming studio stocks are both moving in the wrong direction, revealing a weakness in the media economy.
  • Audiences are tired of endless sequels and uninspired content.
  • But studios and filmmakers can't afford to lose when projects are so expensive to produce.
  • We believe stories deserve better and we are going to do something about it.

Communities

Audiences and storytellers work together to choose what stories are told.

Film Studios

Beloved characters and sprawling multiverse franchises exist on the big screen, at home, and at theme parks around the world.

Interactive Gaming

Personal interactions with stories and persistent social interactions with people around you represent the ways people want entertainment in their lives.
