CITY BY SUBWAY / STRUCTURE
GLOBAL NETWORK - LOCAL FILMMAKERS AND PUBLISHERS
City by Subway is a worldwide network based on Local Filmmakers and Publishers that will be the main contributors to the urban storytelling of their cities.
Structure is based on a Filmmakers network and a hierarchy of Publishers who hold responsibility on (as well as receive benefits from) publishing content (mainly videos). City Publishers, complying with City by Subway editorial guidelines, make choices about lines and stations within their City. City Publishers may engage Line Publishers or Station Publishers. These publishers can produce videos, and manage sponsor and user content, in agreement with City Publishers’ choices.
To ensure best quality, and to help Publishers in their work, City by Subway provides guide lines, technical support and a worldwide filmmakers network.
FILMMAKERS NETWORK
City by Subway is an editorial project that stands to empower both filmmakers and providers of quality content by offering visibility and networking opportunities, such as knowledge exchange, inspirations and business.
For this purpose City by Subway is composed by a worldwide network of filmmakers who made a video or a documentary project that help to create the experience of a city.
Filmmakers Line
Each City has a line dedicated to all Filmmakers that joined the project with a relevant video content about a city. Each Filmmakers has a "station" in the line that is a sort of "channel" where she/he can show her/his works, obtain exposure and create contacts.
The order of filmmakers in the line is a consequence of the order of those who first reached the project. Filmmakers can also be Publisher of a City a Line or just a Station.
