Artist Curated
Curated projects allow artists to pick their favourite outputs/artworks of their works and list them for sale. When browsing the project page before the sale starts, collectors will be able to preview all the outputs.
There are two main options for Artist Curated project:
1. Collector receives random artwork
Collector can browse all available artworks. After purchase collector receives a random artwork from the Artist Curated project set. The example UI is displayed below
2. Collector buys specific artwork from curated set
Collectors can browse all available artworks. In this case once the sale opens collector can choose to buy any available artwork from the curated set on first come first served basis. The example UI is displayed below
Additional details
- It is possible to have traits/features and specify name for each artwork. Traits will be visible on Verse/OpenSea. Example attachment of two traits "Palette" and "Vivid".
- It is possible to have more sales than unique artworks if allowing repetition.
- It is possible for Artist Curated project to be image/video or code.
- If the project consists of code, then the code needs to be uploaded to IPFS and the metadata file should contain URL with desired hash. Our team is happy to help with IPFS details. (See CSV example above of how to specify URL with hash for each artwork)
Metadata CSV columns
When providing a metadata CSV for an Artist Curated project, the following special columns are recognised by Verse:
| Column | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
filename | Yes | The actual name of the file in the directory that the current row applies to. |
$custom_title | No | Title of the NFT. Overrides the default Artwork title #.. naming. |
$custom_description | No | Description of the NFT. Overrides the default Verse-generated description. |
$custom_token_id | No | The token id to use on-chain for this NFT. Each value must be unique across the CSV. |
animation_url | No | Dynamic content for the token, typically a link to an HTML page or video. |
$custom_metadata | No | Dangerous! A JSON string of custom metadata that will fully replace the Verse-generated metadata for this token. Use with care. |
Any other columns in the CSV will be treated as traits/features and surfaced as attributes on Verse and OpenSea.
