MISSION

The mission of the “One Strong Creative Group” is to build a network of creators that exhibit the talents of its base and provide income and opportunities for artists and creators to showcase their abilities in open source creative spaces online.

VISION

The “One Strong Creator” Club will meet online in Discord or real-life events to discuss and create content online and provide education to new potential members on resources available to create audio, visual, or graphic media online.
The One Strong Creator program will educate potential creators in a 10 Week Intake into One Strong associated membership. Creators will help the broader creative community and their fellow creators create content and earn through posted blog content and curating other content on a specific blockchain-based site. This tutelage will walk through the media space, the platform of the Hive blockchain, and develop relationships and resources for their artistic ambitions.

FOUR BELIEFS OF THE CREATIVE GROUP

EDUCATION - We will educate people on how to get on the Hive Blockchain platform.
OPPORTUNITY - We will provide opportunities for creators that have gone through our program to create content in our space.
COLLABORATION - We will offer paid opportunities to collaborate with artists, small businesses, and others in our space.
ACCOUNTABILITY - We will be accountable for our tasks and encourage One Strong Member to perform the duties necessary to complete content onto the blockchain to the best of their artistic ability.

PUBLIC BENEFIT

We will provide affordable access cameras for shooting video, Microphones to record audio, and computers to edit graphics and media together.
We will provide affordable education on media creation, advertising, social media marketing skills, and the future of blockchain technology.
We will provide services for Before and After School Care Programs in the form of Youth Member Creative Media Education Sessions in our Area.

ONE STRONG CREATIVE GROUP

The One Strong Creative Group posts content onto the Hive blockchain and gather in-person to help organize and create content to support other than the ones by members. Members curate content from fellow members and other creators on the Hive Blockchain. A “One Strong Creator” can use our associated creative spaces and experienced members’ network to support their wanted content. This group encourages content on various topics (Blogging, Photography, Music, Painting, Science, Business, etc.). This constant support from the creative process to the curating process will ensure that each creator receives the membership benefits.

“One Strong Creator Posted Programming” will be featured and reshared on One Strong associated media channels and can be given promotion through our channels and directories as well as other prominent social media channels:

the official @onestrong account - www.hive.blog/@boycharlieplays
@onestrong hive community tab - https://hive.blog/trending/hive-114945
@onestrong discord channel - Non-Active until membership created

LEADERSHIP

The Program Creative Director will serve as the lead staff and coordinator in the One Strong Media Space. The Program Creative Director ensures new members’ education within the space and follows One Strong’s mission.

One Strong Media Spaces will house the equipment and the base of“creator membership'' that ensures the continual access to the program's space and resources. The media center will maintain the ability to hold space by applying for grants, generating income from educating new members and creators, and creating blog content to be supported online. The Creative Director leads programming and scheduling to the Media Center’s daily operations and the content posted onto the @onestrong hive account. The “@onestrong account” upvotes the community’s content to ensure that tokens mined through creators who engage on a selected platform/app.

WHAT IS HIVE?

“Hive” takes social media and helps creators and programmers build a living, breathing, and growing social economy - a community where users gain rewards for sharing their voice. It's a new kind of attention economy. Hive.blog is one of the many websites that are powered by the Hive blockchain and HIVE cryptocurrency. Associated Hive websites read and write content to the Hive blockchain, which stores the content in an immutable blockchain ledger, and rewards users for their contributions with digital tokens called HIVE. Every day, the Hive blockchain mints new HIVE tokens and adds them to a community's "rewards pool.” The “tokens” reward users for their contributions in the form of votes. This engagement, after seven days, distributes the valued amount of token from those votes. Users who hold more “tokens” in their account as "Hive Power" will get to decide where a larger portion of the rewards pool distributes through their vote. How does the Hive.blog differ from other social media websites? (Facebook, Twitter, YouTube)
While most social media sites extract this value for their shareholders’ benefit, Hive believes that the platform users should receive the benefits and rewards for their attention and their contributions to the platform.
