Mymilliondollarmovie.com is the creation of an entrepreneurial, aspiring movie producer who is hoping strangers on the web will help him make reach his goals.
The story goes like this: Casey Walker wants to make a movie. His problem, along with the rest of us, is that he doesn't have enough money to make anything of substance. His web site, then, allows folks like you and me to purchase a "frame" (aka, advertising space) for $10. The more frames you buy, the higher up on his credits your frame appears and thus, the more people who will see your frame.
In essence, Mr. Walker's idea is very similar to the following business models, only this time, we get a B-rated movie! Good luck, Casey.
