"Creator-owned" gets used a lot. Here's what it actually means in a deal:
You retain the right to make sequels, merch, adaptations, and spin-offs without asking permission.
Most creators sign that away without realizing it.

Shodai's take on "The Contribution Economy" is perfectly aligned with our vision for filmmakers and animators.
Aligning incentives with audience members that meaningfully contribute to your IP
can mean the difference between a beloved brand or not for indie creators.

A group of 20-year-olds made a trailer for their Gen Z coming-of-age film for $500.
Millions of views. Now they are halfway to their 100K goal on a crowdfund to make the entire movie.
The trailer did the work a sales agent usually does.
Watch the trailer for FRICK! on YT!

A filmmaker made a $65,000 feature and guaranteed distribution before it was finished.
Not with a studio. Not with a sales agent. By thinking like a startup from day one.

60,000 people own a piece of Legion M - a fan-owned film studio that's now produced work with Eli Roth.
They raised $25m direct from their community.
Fans with equity stakes, not just merch.

7 years. Creator-owned IP. Golden Horse Award.
GKIDS just picked up Another World for North American distribution - and Point Five Creations still owns the characters.
The slow road to independence just paid off.

The Rip hit 112M views.
Artists Equity just signed a Netflix first-look deal.
This is what happens when you own the IP on a hit. Not just royalties. A seat at the table.

The team @toonstarhq keeps stacking wins: Parker James' "StEvEn & Parker" sits at 3.4M subs and 10B lifetime views.
Their weekly viewership is 13x that of The Simpson's.
The next generation of animators: Smaller teams. Creator-led IP. Audience-native distribution.

Quiet markets are the best time to farm.
Less noise. Same yields.

It's no secret that independent film distribution is broken.
A new indie distributor, Subtext, is launching with a mission to build "long-term value for filmmakers" - not just visibility.
Indie filmmakers will benefit from their data analytics, consumer insights and cultural strategy.

At SXSW this year: industry panelists declared "The Collapse of the Sundance-to-Streaming Dream".
They say 99% of creators no longer have the chance to get a distribution deal from Sundance or SXSW
And instead need to look at a newly coined 50/50 rule: spend half your money on filming, half on marketing.
New distribution models are in high demand in Hollywood.

In the last year, a wave of new film distribution companies have launched - Row K, Black Bear, Watermelon Pictures, Subtext, Obscured Releasing.
Why? Because the major studios stopped buying mid-budget films and someone had to fill the gap.
New infrastructure is being built. Quietly, but quickly.

Cannes is launching its first-ever Creator Economy Summit this May.
The world's most traditional film market is now building programming around creator IP, digital-first talent, and community-driven distribution.
The old guard isn't ignoring this shift anymore. They're trying to catch up.

90 films premiered at Sundance this year. Only about 12 had distribution deals.
The old model- make a film, premiere at a festival, wait for a buyer- is effectively dead for 99% of filmmakers.
The ones winning now? They're treating distribution as part of production, not an afterthought.

Wake up babe, the Backrooms trailer dropped
What's amazing, is that A24 actually hired a 19 year old YouTuber, Kane Parsons, for his directorial debut on this movie-
and purchased the rights to Parsons' specific take on the public domain Backroom's concept.
This is the power of the age of creators, and aligns perfectly with Lamina1's vision for empowering more creators to become funding / acquisition ready with their own unique IP.
