About ChannelOne
The idea is simple: to create the greatest television network in the world, put it on a streaming platform with a susbcription model, and send it around the world.
You start with an aim at an American audience and have studios in NYC and LA. You then expand with studios in Europe and Asia and then the rest of the continents.
The most important aspect of ChannelOne is that each host has complete creative freedom of their show. They can say what they want to say.
All shows are archived and can be watched at any time. Clips are also uploaded in similar manner to YouTube.
And no. ChannelOne is not a right wing propaganda platform.
“Let’s just bomb Iran”-Lindsey Graham (the perfect fuck up by Lindsey)
Concepts ChannelOne must have:
The Character Show: Conan hosts the greatest late night show ever. His audience members are his interview guests, and all audience members play a character. They can make up a fictional backstory, tell fictional stories, or just be themselves.
Call Her Daddy: Alex talks to celebrities, but also does interviews with her audience members. They can tell fun stories, ask for relationship advice, etc.
The Tim Dillon Show: The funniest man on the planet gives his take on our culture and has complete creative freedom. Ben Avery is back as Tim’s right hand man. Tim takes calls from the public and gives life advice.
Papa Flavor: Joey Diaz gets a show
Brother Theo: Theo Von gets a show
Greenworld: Glenn Greenwald, the most unbiased political commentator does our nightly political show
Breaking Points: Breaking Points is phenomenal, and they get a show.
The Cartier Family: They’ve proved to be incredibly unbiased, impactful commentators, and get their shot.
Freddy’s Angels: Four kind old men talk about the world and give advice to their audience on how to be better people.
The Morning four college kids who agree to act hungover for a morning news show
Honest Discourse: two liberals and two conservatives talk about politics and culture.
Marrying Comedy: Steven Randolph and Chelsea Skidmore (Steven is amazing and so is his wife, Chelsea) (Their show will be tremendous)
Pardon My Take: Barstool gets a cut of their salary. Their shows are turned into podcasts which are available on X.
Sports Are Alive: Frank Michael Smith (He does our sports recap and uses clips from X)
Big Mike: Mike George is a stand up comic and part time high school spanish teacher, and folks, he does not speak spanish. I went to high school with Mikey. Mike talks about whatever comes to his comic and personable mind.
Ironic Energy: Our SNL (It premieres every Saturday night and is actually funny)
The Lil Hosts: Four eight year olds host a news show
The Hype Mafia: We find four classic Italian dudes who wear tracksuits and talk about culture
All hosts can upload a show between 3 and 5 times a week, and their pay is dependent on the number of shows they choose. All hosts have a guaranteed payout and incentives based on watch time.
The platform will launch with fifteen additional shows.
Those shows will be hosted by previous unknown individuals.
How do we find those people?
Through an app... and everyone who wants a chance gets one
Additional content will be stand up sets, documentaries, and short films.
ChannelOne will set up deals with The Mothership and The Comedy Store to ensure the platform is filled with stand up content.
ChannelOne HQ would be in New York City with a studio in Los Angeles.
Two studios, roughly twenty daily uploaded shows, and curated submissions.
A 500,000,000$ investment from the richest person in the world is all it takes to launch Channel One.
I have a film franchise called Layers that would be an evolutionary type of filmmaking. IT would involve Vine and artificial intelligence.
Vine will also be part of the ChannelOne platform and that would be explained to Elon.

The reintroduction of vine
I know what to do with Vine, and it's going to be really fucking amazing.
It will be the most innovative and creator rewarding social media app in the world.
Details and my vision is not being described for an obvious reason.
Vine's launch day is going to be really amazing, and it's going to be different than people expect.

About Will
Dameyra is not my real last name. It may become my real last name, but I’m not sure yet.
My official resume is I'm a 22 (almost 23) year old NYU dropout.
I have a stutter. So, I grew up scared, anxious, and isolated. To comfort myself, I’d go on walks and think about the world (culture, politics, sports, film, etc.) and would try to figure out how to make things more creative.
I didn’t have many friends growing up as I’m very socially anxious.
I got into NYU as a transfer student for the fall of 2021. A creative writing class helped me figure out that creating stories was what I wanted to do.
My story was just the first movie that God wanted me to write.
Right after Thanksgiving Break 2021, I went into hell unwillingly and came out two and a half years later much stronger and resilient only after working with amazing mental health professionals in 2023.
What happened? My brain broke, and I was really not okay for over a year and half.
I just really struggled.
I spent the last ten months of 2023 completely turning my life around.
And here I am.
Just trying to revolutionize streaming and media.
If these ideas don’t get to Elon, my plan is to go to film school this fall.
And a social media app was my first creative idea. I know what to do with Vine.
Elon, I just want to work with the executive team to create the most creative, entertaining, and innovative products possible.

where the word "Dameyra" came from
If you are to know one thing about me, it’s that I believe God has a plan for all of us as a whole. My relationship with my higher power is very personal to me.
I will share where the word “Dameyra” came from because I believe it involves God.
I was on a gap year in 2020 and I was completely lost. I didn’t know what I was going to do with my life, where I was going to go to school, and I was just really lost.
I went into October 18th, 2020, an agnostic.
I was sitting on my bed in my room and a feeling of overwhelming future anxiety came on.
I started to cry because I didn’t know who to ask for help.
So, out of fear and desperation, out loud, I said “God, if you are real, can you please help me,”
Immediately, the tears stopped, and this word just popped into my head.
“Dameyra”
It was not a voice. It was like a thought was inserted into my head.
Immediately following me writing the word down, three commands then popped into my head.
“To help others learn”“To help others communicate”“To add to others perspectives”
After I had wrote all that down, I just said “oh my god.”
Throughout 2023, I came to find a closer relationship with God as I realized he had been the one who decided to attack my brain in December of 2021.
I believe he needed me to experience my version of hell to ensure that I came out the best version of me I possibly could.
My hell involved multiple things.
I'll share what my hell was one day, but just not yet.

my desire for mixed martial arts to be the most popular sport in the world
I have a plan. I'm not going to ask Elon to doo it now, but in time, I'm going to ask him to start my MMA promotion concept. The mistake everyone who tries to compete with the UFC has a made is that they don't actually have a different product. They just have a worse one. My plan actually evolves the sport and the business model.
MMA is the purest sport there is and it needs to be slightly tweaked to maximize global consumption.
My concept is most similar to ONE Championship and would show off multiple disciplines.
I trained at The Renzo Gracie Academy in the fall of 2021 and was blown away at how fucking skilled people are and what the sport of grappling could eventually look like.

TO MY NYU CREATIVE WRITING CLASS (LAYERS)
I wanted to share what I actually wrote for my final workshop piece. I wrote the following in mid-November 2021. I'm sorry for how my mental illness impacted the end of our class. I am deeply grateful for all of you. My hope is ChannelOne works so Layers can become a reality. And to that one individual, words or an apology will never be enough. *Nothing that bad happened for those wondering*
The piece is a decent way to get to know me.
My dream is to be able to create the most amazing and entertaining stories possible.
ChannelOne and Warrior would just be the start.
This was the piece I wrote for my class and reflects my journey as a creative:
“ive been listening to a negative narrative that was written so well it seemed real, and then thats when my path became overwhelmingly clear gratuis this class was incredibly necessary for me. to be honest, i came into this class an insecure, confused little puppet with a deep fear of showing people a side of me that i tried to hide for so long.
stuttering fucking sucks sometimes. i was incredibly insecure with zero self confidence for a long, long time. i dont think i have to convince anyone of that. just for context though, i can talk quite fluently when i feel very comfortable. so, obviously, this class put me out of that comfort zone quite a bit. but i did want to share something with you all. the first day of class, during ice breakers (which btw, are my form of self torture), i directly told you all that i stutter. i had never done that in my entire life. thats what im supposed to all the time. it makes it a lot easier for me to talk after i tell people about the thing that i usually try to hide. there are literally kids i grew up with that dont know i stutter. thats how little i would share.
but for some strange reason, i decided to be closer to myself than i had ever been before that day. i do have some idea of where i got the motivation from to be brave (or just honest) but I feel that is one thing that I will not share with all of you.
so anyways, my communciation issues pushed me to not show myself to anyone for a long time, because i was always so entrenched in the fictional narrative that i had written and gotten myself to believe. thankfully, i had an experience in this class that pushed me to realize that i was embarrassed of the wrong thing.
my first workshop piece was good. i was happy with it. i was still so insecure in just sharing anything though. leading upto the class, i was horrified to read because i got myself to believe that the most embarrassing moments of my life have been when i stuttered. and i pretty much always stutter when i have read in front of other people. thankfully, thisclass changed the notion that the mostembarrassing moments of my life have been when I stuttered.
so anyways, after we finished discussing my first piece, out of fear and insecurity and outright cowardness, i spoke the words “so it wasnt as bad as i thought?”ive never been more embarrassed by anything i have done my entire life. ever.
i really thought about it too.
i literally broke down in tears to my therapist when i realized how horrible it was that i said that.
I am so ashamed that i said that. but now we move on.there is something that happened when Azia asked us a question the first few weeks of class. everyone would like sit there and act like they didnt know the answer. a few courageous souls would cautiously venture out with an answer. you literally can say anything in this class and it might be right in some form. this class is so cool. then, there was this little side step that someone took that i thought was very interesting and somewhat revealing of the human condition. when answering some open ended question, they uttered the words “i dont know… but” and then immediately had the courage to contradict their initial lie with the truth (they obviously did know something because their answer was spectacular)
at that point was when i realized that everyone plays an unintentional character if they arent careful.
i realized that i’ve been play the Will that was designed to impress and amuse, but never actually show you the part of myself that I take more pride than anything in. Instead, i decided that if everyone is insecure, i might as well be honest about why i am. And now? I'm just not that insecure, and its amazing.
since i was maybe 8 years old, i would write in my head. i wrote plot line after plot line. i cant describe the number of hours a day i would do this. at least 2 to 3 every day for the past 10 to 12 years. my guess may be extremely conservative by the way. so thats somewhere between 7300 hours and 11000 hours (give ortake) that i wrote storylines, characters, fictional companies, etc. if you have seen the Secret Life of Walter Mitty, that is sort of what I would compare my experience with.
despite this seemingly unique and interesting practice of mine, i was very confused (the word insecure was originally used but i dont like that word anymore) about sharing it with people. that included myself. I wouldnt even write my ideas down anywhere. I was scared to show any part of myself to anyone, including to myself. no one knew what i was thinking about. that was until this class. through a few workshoppieces (and some other very fun stuff), iwas able show enough of myself to other people to realize i hadnt even shown myself to me.
my third workshop piece was the most open and honest ive ever been with a group of people who werent family members (or a therapist). and after i shared it, i felt so good about myself. i remember expecting to feel anxious while sitting hearing your comments, butI just wasn’t. I was so at peace with how I presented myself to all of you that day.i felt a sense of empowerment that i had never experienced before. that turned into such a great week for me
that piece wasn’t even close to a finished product either. so, i thought i would try to give you guys more of a direct and complete piece. so, i wrote this little context thing.so, for the final workshop piece, i really wanted to open up. thanks to several elements within this class (and a few motivators within), i am choosing to finally acknowledge to myself and the world that i feel and think that i have incredibly valuable and positive ideas/stories/characters/emotions to share with the world. this class helped me realize that I want create and share stories with others. that is what i want to do with my life.
i am going to create a paracosm (a fictional or imaginary world) (think starwars/game of thrones/hunger games, etc) and tell stories that hopefully show this world how much more meaningful and fun we can continually make this weird experience of life by creating new cultural impulses that showcase the most amazing and radical elements of the human spirit. (word choices are good,just change the order of them maybe)
i am not sure when the story will be written, or if it will be exactly as i imagine it. i am not sure if i will start with a story that seems easier, or less intimidating, but i know for certain that i have the ability to present ideas to the world in the way that I want.
thank you all! some of you in particular have no idea how much influence you may have had on me! i hope i get to tell those of you who did someday. hope you enjoy it.
thank you all for forcing this scared little boy to confront his reality!!!
