Future Creatives

Revolutionising The Creative Industries

Empowering Creators and Fans to Shape the Future of  Entertainment, Culture & The Arts

Future Creatives uses DeFi, RWA’s and decentralisation to make the $12 trillion, combined industries, more sustainable, dynamic and  equitable & free from the gatekeepers.

The current antiquated funding and distribution systems have plagued the subsidised sector for 30+ years. They hinder artist’s sustainability and growth because decisions are slow, centralised, inequitable. In today’s innovative and fast paced world the systems cannot respond to the rapidly evolving space of creative excellence and in high demand experiences.

70% of creative ideas in the subsidised sector never get funded because of: 

  • Industry gatekeepers
  • Centralised funding decisions made by non specialists
  • Not enough money to go around
  • An industry waiting to be saved
  • Artists not thinking entrepreneurially

The 30% that are successful often find themselves struggling to continue to survive once the funding runs out. Artists who are not subsidised often give up on their ideas because they don’t know where else to turn and those genius ideas are buried. 

This means there’s a ton of brilliant ideas that get left on the table that are principled and purpose driven. 

They are perfect for impact investment but artists often lack the knowhow to amplify a project’s potential.

We believe we can futureproof the industry by creating a decentralised alternative. Where decisions about funding, distribution and validation are made by fans, audiences and supporters who are *token holders.

Blockchain technology, global communities and seamless communication enables audience & fan-driven experiences and spaces in the physical world and Metaverses to thrive because:

  • Tokenisation of projects avoids gatekeepers
  • Funding decisions are decentralised so artists and audiences get what they need
  • Micro financing and peer to peer lending enables creative freedom
  • It promotes ARTrepreneurs, independence and sustainability
  • Artists can amplify their work to solve real world problems
 

How?

Removing gatekeepers by connecting artists and creative producers to fans and supporters to develop validated experiences that get rewarded. This is similar to patronage. 

Tokenisation is like issuing shares in your project and  you decide the financial or experiential perks that are tied to them. It democratises how you can fund your creative projects.

The tokens represented by tokens and each token is tied to a reward that can be experiential or financial.

Quadratic funding, decentralised finance and decision making enables artists, audiences and fans to jointly own creative Real World Assets (RWA) and experiences.

Part owning productions to creative real estate (venues/galleries) allows the creative community to co-create with purpose and own the creative value chain.

Bringing artists, fans and supporters together so that we can build a decentralised funding, distribution and validation ecosystem for use in the physical world and Metaverses

Some User Examples

The community come together and tokenise the ownership of a venue, allowing supporters to participate in its growth.

Revenue shares from  crowd commissioned events, tokenised venue seating and metaverse distribution are shared by token holders and the venue.

How?

They also released their fan commissioned album as an NFT.

When it goes on general release the fans are able to sell and promote it and get an automatic profit share because it’s written into the NFT’s smart contract.

Nas did it too, why can’t we? 

In fact why isn’t everyone doing it?

An empty high street property is needed for a gallery exhibition experience, it receives thousands of micro contributions from the community via quadratic funding.

Institutional and supporter backing multiplies the funds raised because there is evidence of the demand and social need.

Because the campaign came from a Future Creatives community member it rallies stakeholders from our database to amplify the project and make it sustainable. 

This allows the gallery to curate more ambitious and audience driven projects that serve the community and beyond. 

This enables not for profit events to succeed.
