The simulation resulted in a profit of $47,000 for Deep Six within 6 months, driven entirely by pre-sales to a horror-niche Discord community of 1,200 superfans.
To test the model, we simulated a Mariskax Productions project titled Deep Six , a horror-thriller shot entirely on a repurposed fishing trawler over 8 days with a budget of $12,000. mariskax productions
Mariskax Productions offers a provocative counter-narrative to the bloated, risk-averse structures of mainstream media. By formalizing creative risk as a design parameter rather than a flaw, this model enables rapid, low-capital content creation that can build dedicated micro-audiences. Future research should explore whether the Mariskax Coefficient can be applied to non-fiction genres (e.g., investigative documentary) and whether blockchain distribution can scale without losing its niche authenticity.
