In Honor of This Historic Event of The 1st Litecoin Mining Reward Halving
Since I like to add humor to and promote things I like... I am a creative writer by trade so I would like to make a contribution at some point since this community has been so friendly, fun and accessible. In fact Charlie Lee pm'd me in IRC the first day I was on #litecoin-pricetalk. And I was being a total noob too! It took me awhile to grasp the math involved with the ratio of btc: ltc for one thing which I should have known. Well in all truth he could have slammed me for being a noob and lacking math skills. But he didn't and that was super nice of him which is indicative of the larger Litecoin community. Realizing I was a bit late to the party, I wanted to buy some Litecoin and was looking for a good entry price. He wanted to know if I was a bag holder, or if I was part of some kind of pumping "crew," which I'm not. I told him "Nope. I'm just a guy." And that I just recognized his screen name /u/coblee and wanted to know if it was really him. Well it really was. Cool!
Fast forward to now: I have 42 Short TV Spot Titles For Script Ideas Outlining the Many Uses of Litecoin! Oh and I also bought some Litecoins.

What follows is a series of short sketches appropriate for a cinematography or film school TV ad project. I'm trying my hand at copywriting and I would like to give credit here to /u/FyaShtatah and /u/milkmountain for their inspiring threads.. And I'm not gonna lie, I'm putting it out there to promote Litecoin, however I could also really use some shekels. :] If anyone would like to produce any of these ideas for TV spots (1? 5? 10? 100? 250? Litecoins, I don't know-what's a fair price? any tip is appreciated, pay what you like, sorta like those Louie CK comedy specials). For each of these I have a certain narrative in mind. Who knows maybe some of them could be fully developed into national broadcast commercial ready promos. If any of them intrigue you let me know.
If any of them sound good feel free to tip my Reddit litecoin address or via the /tipbot. I know it works because /u/NattyLiteCoin tipped me a 12-pack of Natural Light Beers' worth of Litecoin already :] Thanks NattyLiteCoin! I love your spirit! (sips beer)

Your tips go towards developing each script (or storyboarding visuals) as my time and energy allows. It might just be a quick visual idea say in Photoshop that conveys the message per /u/milkmountain 's movie poster suggestion. Or it could be a full-on TV promo spot A/V script for Litecoin. I think of this as developing promotions for Litecoin and this as a brainstorming session. Most of the titles are self-explanatory, others are vague so as to require more "hashing."
Here they are!

If you've ever read "AdWeek" it's customary to have a descriptive title for an ad campaign which is what I've done here. Also think if Litecoin were to sponsor a TV Pilot these might be the names of the episodes. Hey I'm no Mike Judge (creator of Beavis n Butthead, Office Space, Idiocracy & Silicon Valley) Tom Lennon (great comedy screenwriter!) or Aldous Huxley (he was a copywriter before he wrote novels) but hey you never know…
Cheers to a smooth first day after the halving!
