Cardboard Spaceship Initiates LaunchPad Ventures

Cardboard Spaceship Announces the Launch of LaunchPad Ventures

Cardboard Spaceship is thrilled to unveil their latest endeavor: LaunchPad Ventures. Serving as the private equity arm of their video production company, LaunchPad Ventures will produce, direct and create high quality cinematic b-roll content for digital platforms such as Filmsupply.

With over $5M in capital commitments and an initial funding of $1 million, their team will work with creatives globally to create cinematic content that caters to the surging demand for high-quality digital assets. Through partnerships like Filmsupply, they will aim to deliver premium content for licensing.

“We recognize the growing appetite for high-quality and original cinematic assets,” said Jeremy Robinson, CEO of Cardboard Spaceship and LaunchPad Ventures. “This fund will allow us to collaborate with established and emerging creatives to produce portfolios of licensed content, while making available a diversified collection of premium cinematic footage for agencies and brands.”

By catering to the ever-evolving needs of global brands and agencies, these platforms will help ensure they have access to top-tier content for marketing and creative endeavors. Additionally, for creatives not represented on Filmsupply, the Fund offers content creators the ability to unlock the potential of their portfolio with a cash buyout.

Sounding the AI Alarm

“The advent of AI art has alarmed many in the creative industry, but we still believe in the individual artist and hope this allows them to make money off their craft while also putting it in the hands of top global brands,” added Robinson. “For platforms like Filmsupply, where we are already an approved content creator, knowing we are harvesting this original creative content with our trained eye means they’ll get content that brands and agencies will like.”
