Human Spot Light SERIES INTRO

One of the things I am trying to do with the Badge of Originality and Human Certified Original Works is to shine a spotlight on some of the truly interesting and creative posting that is going on right under our noses sometimes. To further this mission I am introducing a new series - the Human Spot Light. We are kicking off with a bang, as our series introductory post is a double feature. This series will not follow a strict schedule and is certainly not likely to be weekly.

100% of LIQUID SBD PAYOUT of each Human Spot Light post will go toward promoting future posting of the spotlighted user(s)

A Cry For Help

I need two things of you, Steem community at large! Can you help me? - I need a vote bot set up for the @humanbot account that can key on text in a comment, to upvote the parent post if the commenter is on a white list (one of the Badge of Originality holders). Can you help me make this happen? Contact me on steemit.chat (@carlgnash) or Discord (@gnashster). Thanks in advance! - I need advice on what is the most effective and ethical way to spend the SBD generated by Human Spot Light posting to promote future posting of the featured users. In this particular case I will use the liquid SBD payout from this post to promote an episode of (or possibly spread it out to support multiple episodes of) the JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY. I am opposed to vote buying / bid bots as a general matter of principle but might be willing to go this route if it is clearly the best way to promote this post. I am perfectly willing to use the *Promote* feature to burn SBD but wonder if converting to STEEM on internal market wouldn't be better first? I have no experience with promoting posts in this matter. Please give me your advice! How can I use the earnings of this post best to promote future episodes of The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY?

@juliakponsford SPOTLIGHT

![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmV7kZ9E5tM3aY13EfN6yncnAayjzvNHNgLUHEcvgowEHc/image.png) I met @juliakponsford very early in my Steem tenure when I joined PAL, the MSP (Minnow Support Project) chat on Discord. PAL stands for Peace, Abundance and Liberty. I can get behind that. I love Julia and her creative posting - original art, music, "and more", please visit her blog! Julia may be best known now for her #artexplosion weekly contest, in its 22nd Week currently and about to enter its 23rd in the week to come. I have personally participated in this contest several times and always love browsing the awesome Steem creativity displayed in the submissions. If you are a fan of the arts I highly recommend following her weekly art curation series "Ocean of Art". Julia is also a senior mod on PAL and a really supportive presence there. I love you @juliakponsford - you rock!

@vachemorte SPOTLIGHT

@vachemorte, ooh la vache, what to say. I have participated in #openmic quite a few times, and @vachemorte is a regular participant as well; I believe we first interacted in the comments there but again we chatted on Discord/ PAL, but mostly I think we are both just mutual fans of each other's posting so we have spent a lot of time chatting in comments of posts and engaging in collaborations and just having fun on Steem. Here I want to give a very short curated selection of @vachemorte's original music posting: https://steemit.com/music/@vachemorte/free-download-new-18-electro-track-album-by-vache-morte-happy-new-year The above post is still in payout for 2 days at the time of my typing and the exclusive Steem download link will be up for 2 more days as well - 18 tracks of ORIGINAL MUSIC, all recent, many of the tracks first created and shared right here on Steem. How to describe @vachemorte's electronic music? I will turn to the maestro himself - "Electro-Orchestral". It is powerful music with pulsing rhythms and really creative instrumentation and voicing. https://steemit.com/openmic/@vachemorte/steemit-open-mic-49-ukulele-improv-in-a-bath-by-the-sea Here the dead cow delivered what remains to this day one of my all time favorite Steem performances, in a bathtub by the sea. What a man. https://steemit.com/openmic/@vachemorte/steemit-open-mic-51-original-improv-easier-said-then-done Modified keyboard, looper and gangster rap. I rest my case.

The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY

![jujugumconspiracy.gif](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQVbq66jLMea5YXzf1CyH5JMsQeekLfvqUrsjqHUHnp2P/jujugumconspiracy.gif) The reason this is a double feature is that @juliakponsford and @vachemorte are a real life couple and in addition to being awesome people individually, collaboratively they have brought life to a feature film! ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmfCKxYjZrgB3ZgFR8mMeqERusG6G9vJnLzRhqXvQnzcTV/image.png) The Human Spot Light this week in our inaugural double feature comes to rest on The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY, a feature film created by @vachemorte and @juliakponsford. If you want to support these two stellar examples of Steem creativity and awesomeness, please join me in supporting them over the next two weeks as they release The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY as a Steem Exclusive! ![](https://steemitimages.com/DQmcKUrgJkKTY5begQSx9zZTE5HRXvKasXfJEUmFCoB3dBP/image.png)

Steem World Premiere - Monday, January 8th ~8pm Eastern Standard (US) / 1AM UTC January 9th

Starting this coming Monday (early AM Tuesday for UTC time zone), The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY will be released as a 14 episode series, with one episode released daily at the same time, same bat ( @vachemorte) channel.

Why should you support The JUJU GUM CONSPIRACY?

Well if you need a reason beyond supporting awesome, original to Steem posting by awesome people like @juliakponsford and @vachemorte, consider the following: - This feature film was promoted to film distributors, sales agents, media, etc., as an example of a potential new paradigm in independent film - the release on Steem blockchain to earn compensation, gain exposure and generate publicity while retaining all rights for future distribution. - If this little experiment ends up grossing a substantial sum it will surely be noticed not just in indie film circles, but also by the major Hollywood studios. This story could easily be picked up by national and international news outlets. - This is our chance to have something truly interesting, creative, and GOOD FOR STEEM on the front trending page! Can we please, pretty please, make sure that this trends? If you are a whale, a dolphin, a big fish or a minnow, consider giving 100% upvotes to each part of this series - it has the potential to generate a lot of publicity to increase the value of your investment. If you know a whale, put in a good word for this project if you can do so in a non-douche bag manner :) You can read more here about how @juliakponsford and @vachemorte have promoted this project outside of the Steem ecoystem: https://steemit.com/art/@juliakponsford/promoting-our-steemit-exclusive-film-release-to-the-industry-and-media-the-juju-gum-conspiracy-coming-monday
