The Ultimate Movie App
WHAT IS FILMOJO?
Filmojo is the ultimate movie app!
At IncLabs, we believe that movies are a big part of our lives. In fact, they are a major aspect of who we are.
The current crop of movie apps are each very very limited in functionality. You're using different apps for - showtimes, reviews, trailers, suggestions, movie info. You do not have a way to manage all these things at one place. Well, now you do!
Our team has striven hard to develop that ONE APP which will make all of this easy and seamless. Filmojo is the first truly versatile and social app for movies. Here is an overview of what Filmojo does:
WHO ARE WE?
We are IncLabs!
IncLabs is a startup with a team of resolute designers and developers (read geeks) from the United States and India. We endeavor to develop next generation mobile platforms on the cutting edge of technology and crafted user experience. We have spent months developing what we are about to present to you - Filmojo.
And, we need YOU!
WHOSE APP IS IT, ANYWAY?
While developing Filmojo, our team kept you in mind. What features and capabilities are most important to you? How would you like the app to present information? How can Filmojo make your life easy? And how can we make you awesome?
Are you Chris Morgan?
Chris uses Filmojo to check out latest movies and their showtimes before he makes movie plans with his friends. Sometimes when his friends come over, he uses Filmojo to buy the group's favorite DVD. He is a Filmojo Newbie.
Are you Sarah Scott?
What can you say about a girl who loves Batman and Filmojo? She recommends movies to her Facebook friends using Filmojo movie cards. She has 20 odd flicks in her Favorites list which she maintains in Filmojo. 10 of those are Batman movies! She is a Filmojo Enthusiast.
Are you Bob Lee?
Bob takes his movies seriously. He watches a dozen movies each week. And he writes reviews for most of them. He loves movie suggestions made by Filmojo. He has more than 100 followers in his Filmojo circle. He is a Filmojo Movie-Buff.
Are you Casey James?
Casey has written a whopping 150 reviews and has close to 1000 followers on Filmojo. She frequently gets invited to private movie screenings. She is a Filmojo Aficionado.
WHERE WE ARE?
Over the last 5 months, we have designed and developed many prototypes. Currently, we are ready with the 2nd major build. In this prototype, we have made some major design changes to accommodate added features. We are now working with a few in-house alpha testers to make sure this is a stable and robust build before we go on to build the next prototype.
Our plan now is to recruit a dedicated product manager and a UX expert who can contribute major insights before we go into the final build cycle.
WHERE WE HAVE BEEN?
The idea for Filmojo was seeded when Viv, our CEO, was attending an international film festival. He downloaded the IMDB app. IMDB is the most comprehensive of all film databases. But he soon realized he had to download a different app each time he tried to do something new. And soon he had 9 apps to manage all his movie-related interactions.
Smith, another founding team member, had a similar experience. She is a social network buff. And none of the existing movie apps provided a seamless social integration. And hence, we build Filmojo!
So far, we have gone through 9 design iterations and build 2 stable builds. We haven't launched in the App Store so far, as we believe in going to the market with the very best.
WE NEED YOU!
We picked Indiegogo for our campaign because we thought this is a great way to get the word out and engage with you - our user. This is how you can be a part of the development story of Filmojo.
You contributions will go a long way in enabling us to develop the final build of Filmojo and make it reach our target of 1 million users by end of 2014.
WHAT WE NEED?
We need $19,000 to build and launch Filmojo in the App Store. We will use these funds to ramp-up our core team and also for the initial burst marketing of the app. Here is a breakup of how the money will be spent.
THE IFs & BUTs
- If we are able to meet our goal, Filmojo will be launched on the App Store as per schedule.
- If we are not able to meet our goal, we will still go as per plan and Filmojo will still be launched. But we might have to cut costs a little and postpone the launch date. And our target of reaching 1 million users by end of 2014 will become a little bit more difficult.
- If we surpass our goal by at least 30%, we will be able to launch Filmojo for Android as well along with the Apple App Store. So, do contribute generously!
