WHY CONTRIBUTE?

Our model fills a unique niche in the industry, allowing photographers and videographers to not only generate revenue and build an audience but also retain full copyright ownership – all with minimal effort or involvement. This balanced solution not only supports creators but provides the most creatively complete product for our projects.

BENEFITS OF CONTRIBUTION

share stories

Contributors, through sharing anecdotes, content, and stories, become valuable members of a team that utilizes and builds platforms for storytelling. Being part of a collective not only amplifies individual stories but also turns storytelling into a collaborative effort, allowing the combination of the very best content from the very best content capturers.

join a leading team

TOOG 04 Icon

Any individual contributor joining the collective is becoming a part of a truly monumental team, collaborating with the very best to launch ocean-inspired edu-tainment systems. Consequently, we ensure that each contributor joining the ranks fulfils a niche not fully captured within our archive of content or stories.

SUPPORT OCEAN CONSERVATION

The collective contributor team shares a profound passion for our oceans, especially in preserving the very environments that enabled the capture of truly incredible material. Consequently, being part of and supporting collective efforts contributes to our overarching goal of launching and reinvesting in ocean conservation.

HOLD COPYRIGHt

The innovative model we’re adopting ensures contributors retain full copyright of their work — material that frequently involves substantial budgeting, extensive travel, purchases, and considerable effort, reflecting dedication and hard work to capture in the first place. We’re not aiming to function as a stock library, acquiring smaller creator archives at a low price. Instead, we’re establishing a collective to provide ongoing revenue, continuous support and a genuine global impact.

CONTRIBUTOR CONTROLLED

No contribution from any members of the wider contributory team will ever be exploited commercially without the contributor having agreed to the terms and conditions of that exploitation.
