BeScene, a fresh networking application, aims to facilitate easy entry into the cinematic industry for talented professionals lacking traditional resources. Potent for its similarity to Tinder, the app operates with a swipe-left or right model, allowing aspiring filmmakers, screenwriters, actors and others in the industry to connect with professionals who share similar interests. By providing a platform to showcase their skills and creativity, BeScene aims to democratize the world of cinema.
The app’s founder, George Armistead, believes in BeScene’s ability to break down industry barriers and give the spotlight to undiscovered talents. By integrating more novices into the sector, Armistead hopes to make the transition smooth and find success through digital exposure.
Utilizing a swipe function, BeScene facilitates professional connections catered to the specific needs of budding filmmakers. Users can browse profiles, engage in discussions and even locate funding opportunities. Apart from forming connections, BeScene also brings together a community of cinephile to promote a vibrant and diverse platform.
The functionality of the app is simple and user-friendly featuring a built-in messaging system, discovery feature, and networking management page. User profiles are showcased in a card layout, allowing users to either pass or connect. Once a connection is established, users can engage in real-time communication and network expansion, fostering professional growth.
BeScene also prioritizes user security and authenticity by implementing measures for user identity validation and reporting potential violations. In addition, strict standards and procedures are in place to ensure users follow community guidelines and foster a secure environment.
Currently free of cost in the U.S. and Canada, it plans to release additional features such as an explore page, posts feed, and other interest groups. It also has potential plans to introduce in-app purchases. Not only has BeScene amassed a waiting list of 7,200 individuals, but it also makes finding collaborators for film projects and job opportunities in the entertainment industry much easier. With BeScene, a diverse, accessible and inclusive platform for aspiring talents is no longer a dream.
