Organization's mission:

1) Provide Creatives:

  • A new channel for funding opportunities
  • A forum to garner public feedback and gain support for a film or digital medi project
  • The opportunity to network with other artists in order to source material, acquire talent, and find production personnel
  • A trusted partner throughout the project – from passion to profits

2) Empower Crowds:

  • To decide which films get funded by allowing people to vote with their wallets
  • To provide input into the birth and creation of independent film and digital media
  • To connect directly with the creatives the crowds support

3) Offer Corporations:

  • Access to a fresh, new pipeline of film, evaluated and funded by the crowds
  • Greater visibility into market demand, thereby mitigating risk of investment
  • A new channel for targeted marketing and partnership possibilities
  • Opportunity for data mining to support decision-making on a studio-backed film
