For Creatives,
By Creatives.
We are Tim, John & Erik and have worked within the Creative Industry for 20 years. Working with film, content, design, UX - working both as freelancers and employees at agencies in Gothenburg and London.
One thing we all had in common was the frustration about the lack of connectivity in our Industry. So we decided to make a change. John // Sales and Film Producer “The constant struggle of finding available photographers in a specific location last minute was, and still is, a nightmare!” Tim // Creative Director and Filmmaker “Coming from the UK, I found the market very closed to new comers.” Erik // Dev. and UX designer “I felt that so many tools on the market lacked intelligent connectivity with great design.” “Where was the Spotify for our Creative Network?” We cried and no one answered. Throughout our career we’d all used Facebook groups, UpWork and portfolio sites but they didn’t put the creative experience first, they all kind of half worked. We all felt there was room for radical improvement. It was from here that we got together, sat round a table and thought, “is there a way to solve this problem?” We wanted to create a platform that: highly values the experience of getting your work published to a wide and relevant audience, builds a community based on trusted recommendations and is a great tool for serious freelancers to find serious work. For the last 2 years we’ve taken it from a sketch to an actual database and are now preparing to take it to the next level of development and intelligent connectivity. At the beginning we talked a lot about digital solutions being the driving force behind the project but it has become evidently clear today that the tech is secondary to what is the core ingredient. You! Our early adopters. The community spirit, your enthusiasm, the will to help us and each other, taking time to give us feedback and contribute to the database. This is the true driving force - one that we didn’t account for when we sat around that table. Everyday we learn something new. We are becoming great listeners, killing our egos and constantly changing tack - but keeping the main vision of creative connection in mind. Thanks for believing in the project. A massive thank you to you all. Let’s do this. 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 🔥 Tim, John and Erik.
