Improve your videos and calls with live motion NFTs
Deadfellaz, the zombie-themed NFT collection launched in August 2021, has so far generated around $102 million in volume trade on the Ethereum blockchain. But it's not just about static images, as this project is taking the standard profile picture (PFP) to the next level with the launch of animated avatars.
This new technology, created by Hologram Labs, introduces the "Streamingfellaz" extension that allows Deadfellaz collectors to use their existing JPEG images as animated avatars on platforms such as Twitch, YouTube, Google Meet and Zoom. This trend is part of the "vtubers" (virtual YouTubers), who use animated avatars to represent real people behind the streams.

Gamers can represent themselves as their zombified cartoon alter ego while playing on Twitch and have their avatar match their head and body movements, or add a fun twist to a business meeting on Zoom. Integration of this kind of technology on NFTs generate a positive impact for mass adoption by serving of a way of entertainment for some users. The goal of this technology variant is to allow collectors to take immersive storytelling to a whole new level through user-generated content and virtual worlds.

Deadfellaz has managed to create a community of collectors passionate about NFTs, who seek not only to own these unique images, but also to interact with them in exciting and innovative ways. This group of collectors call themselves 'The Horde'.

By using their avatars on popular platforms like Twitch and YouTube, they can connect with other gamers and collectors, and be part of a vibrant and constantly evolving community.

Beyond the fun, this technology also has significant implications for the future of intellectual property and content monetization, opening up new possibilities for creativity and digital property. Ultimately, Deadfellaz is a showcase of how blockchain technology is changing the game, and how we can leverage it to create new forms of expression and building a community.
