Cideshow careers
Cideshow is a streaming service that's an alternative to all other streaming services. Instead of just being another Netflix/Hulu clone, we are geared towards creative people and focused on being an active rather than a passive experience.
We're doing this, first of all, by showcasing series and movies that are taking chances and wouldn't necessarily be distributed on other platforms because, while they're great ideas, they're unproven. We’re cultivating an audience who wants unproven concepts and to be the first to discover them. We remove algorithms and instead let our audience directly decide on our content, which can often be described as artistic, edgy, experimental, fun, interactive, and, above all, not mainstream.
We also doing this by imbuing Cideshow with crowdfunding and gamification. Viewers directly renew their favorite shows with virtual currency, and they are incentivized with rewards for doing so. Viewers can also ascend to higher statuses by watching/supporting/participating in shows, which unlock more privileges and powers for them, making Cideshow the only gamified streaming service and an engaging, addictive experience.
We created Cideshow in 2017, and we had been using that time to get a working prototype up. After a stall and a start-up post-pandemic, we're ready to make Cideshow everything it can be.
With content created a lot more on its way, we're about to enter the Angel/Seed round of funding to build out more content, the main site, and the marketing. Now that we're at this stage, we're looking to establish a solid team that can help with success in this fundraising, become part of the founding team, and help bring Cideshow to its full potential.
We are set on creating a more imaginative, innovative, and interactive television landscape. We're looking for those who are inspired by this goal and who are ready to join us on the journey. Step right up...
