Orange Comet Partners with Doodle Boy for New NFT Collection, ‘The Remarkables’
The world of art and technology is rapidly evolving, and one of the latest partnerships to make waves is that between Orange Comet and Doodle Boy, a 13-year-old artistic genius. On March 16, Orange Comet announced that it is teaming up with Joe Whale, popularly known as Doodle Boy, to create an NFT (non-fungible token) collection called “The Remarkables.”
Orange Comet: Becoming the World’s Premiere Web3 Entertainment Company
Orange Comet is a trendsetting Web3 media and gaming firm that aims to be the world’s premiere Web3 entertainment company driving the digital revolution. With CEO Dave Broome at the helm, Orange Comet has already partnered with numerous huge IP brands and franchises. Their NFT collection features projects from Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches series, The Walking Dead, and Sir Anthony Hopkins. These impressive partnerships come as no surprise, since Orange Comet boasts an impressive team of advisors and investors, including celebrities like Grammy award winners Gloria and Emilio Estefan, Superbowl Champion Kurt Warner, and Star Trek’s William Shatner.
Doodle Boy: The Teen Artist Taking the Art World by Storm
Joe Whale, popularly known as Doodle Boy, is a 13-year-old artist who hails from Shrewsbury, UK. He started drawing at the age of 3 and has already worked with huge brands like Disney, Nike, and Pixar. This young creator boasts over 160k followers on his personal Instagram account, and has received recognitions and endorsements from the future King and Queen of England, Prince William, and Kate Middleton.
Doodle Boy mainly draws inspiration from his environment and surroundings. He uses black markers to create whimsical and funny cartoon characters on a white canvas and murals. His now nonfungible token (NFT) collection will consist of 3,500 new characters in his trademark doodle style. After the minting process on April 25, Orange Comet is expected to color the doodles and make them into clay renderings, and later animate them.
The Power of NFTs in the Art World
NFTs are perhaps the most exciting technological innovation to have entered the art world in recent times. An NFT is a unique digital asset that is verified on a blockchain (the same technology that underpins cryptocurrencies) and is therefore not interchangeable with any other asset. The market for NFTs has exploded in recent months, with some pieces of digital art selling for millions of dollars. In addition to digital art, NFTs can represent anything digital, from music to video clips to social media posts.
The Remarkables: A First Step into a Larger Web3 World
“The Remarkables” collection will serve as the first step in the development of a bigger Web3 world filled with vivid characters and immersive storytelling. Orange Comet aims to leverage the potential of the young and imaginative savant Doodle Boy to remain at the top in the nascent space of Web3 media. Doodle Boy is thrilled at the prospect of working with Orange Comet to bring his characters to life in new and exciting ways.
“I’ve only ever drawn with a black marker and a blank sheet of canvas, but I’ve always imagined my art coming to life in other formats in my head. It’s amazing that my fans and I will have the unique opportunity to experience my drawings in motion through the power of animation.”
The Verdict: A Boost to the Art World and the Future of Web3 Media
The partnership between Orange Comet and Doodle Boy is yet another example of how technology is transforming the way we create, consume, and appreciate art. NFTs are just one of many innovations that are reshaping the art world and expanding the possibilities of what we can create and appreciate. As the market for NFTs grows and Web3 media becomes increasingly popular, partnerships like this one are sure to become more common, paving the way for greater collaborations and more exciting works of art.
