Portal – Season 1
Across the world, power has fallen into the hands of those who wish to manipulate and control.
Corporations pursue economic gains at the detrimental expense of social, environmental and ethical concerns. Governments treat their own people as merely a statistic, and human rights are sold for a price that cushions the back pockets of the 1% untouchables. How do we claim our freedom back?

‘Future Artists on-demand’
We mobilise the power of the crowd, to launch projects
which challenge our world.
Future Artists on demand is a platform for the ‘Future Artist’ to launch
‘Art with Attitude’.
In January 2011, the producers of Future Artists decided to embark on a very big adventure and conceive of a very big idea, that would make up a project entitled ‘Project Lost Generation’, and got lost along the way.
It looks like Hollywood has turned its back on diplomacy, instead opting for the send the army in, and ask questions later, kind of gun ho politics, that saw the rise of the 80s action hero.
We are SAD!!!!! HMV Collapses and the entertainment industry is in turmoil – can Indies save us!
Shot over two years, the film features all the characters, shot for shot, with the original movie soundtrack over the top, so you get the real toy BUZZ LIGHT YEAR and WOODY as puppets, its a proper DIY film, with buckets of charm, this is a true fan film, made out of pure love of the story and the characters.
Future Artists on demand – FREE TO WATCH – Future Artists love it when fans of movies just get up off their sofa’s and decide to go make a story set in the universe of their favorite film, and so when we stumbled across this new LORD OF THE RINGS inspired film, around the same time as Peter Jackson’s HOBBIT hit the IMAX we knew we had to share this with you!
Future Artists on demand – bringing you the best films that celebrate the zeitgeist – we are watching SOUND IT OUT – Tucked just off the high street in Stockton-on-Tees, Sound It Out Records is one of the last surviving vinyl record shops struggling to keep afloat in the face of recession and changes in technology.

The digital revolution of the last decade has unleashed creativity and talent in an unprecedented way, with unlimited opportunities.
Future Artists recommends – ‘Factory as a ‘social experiment’, as a cultural force, as a manifestation of Tony Wilson’s ego: the kind of talk that Peter Hook calls “arty bullshit”.’ – Watch the ‘Factory Records’ documentary online now!
The Rough Trade story begins more than thirty years ago on 20th February 1976. Britain was in the grip of an IRA bombing campaign; a future prime minister was beginning to make her mark on a middle England in which punk was yet to run amok; and a young Cambridge graduate called Geoff Travis opened a new shop at 202 Kensington Park Road, just off Ladbroke Grove in west London. The Rough Trade shop sold obscure and challenging records by bands like American art-rockers Pere Ubu, offering an alternative to the middle-of-the-road rock music that dominated the music business.
Beginning October 31, people in the United Kingdom will be able to launch their projects on Kickstarter

The film charts the rapid rise of record shops in the 1960?s / 70s and 80’s, the influence of the chart, the underhand deals, the demise of vinyl and rise of the CD as well as new technologies.

From the late 1970’s through the mid 80’s, when the city was still a wasteland of cheap rent and cheap drugs, these directors crafted daring works that would go on to profoundly influence the development of independent film as we know it today.
