Support GREAT STATIONS

Welcome! If you don’t know me, I’m Tony Hartman. For the last 14 years I've planned and produced livestreams and virtual events for musicians, actors, athletes, and internet creators - as well as major brands and organizations. More than 1,500 of these things, billions of views, and millions of dollars going to talent of all types and sizes.

Early in my career, I was diagnosed with a rare muscle disease called LGMD2i - a chronic, degenerative condition with no cure or treatment. I powered through (worked too much) until I couldn't, eventually stepping back to focus on my health. That time made a difference and the first potential treatment for LGMD2i is nearing possible FDA approval, driven in large part by the CureLGMD2i Foundation and our patient community.

Once I was ready to get "back to work", I knew the digital media job market was rough (understatement) - so I went independent as a solo studio. I also knew my experience as a patient and advocate had to not just cooperate with my work, but also inform it.

Looking back, many of the most successful streams had an awareness and fundraising component - tying revenue to a musician, athlete, or celebrity's foundation or cause. Their fan communities rallied to support, and major viewership and donations followed.

In the past, telethons like the MDA's did the same thing over broadcast. Virtual events can accomplish that today with modern technology and scale - and there's no one on earth with more direct experience doing this than me.

So that's GREAT STATIONS. I produce livestreams and virtual events for major talent and organizations that engage their fan communities while raising awareness and donations for causes close to them. I'll collaborate with names across music, entertainment, and sports, just as I always have, and service impact films from the Creative Visions sponsored slate and beyond.

By supporting GREAT STATIONS with a tax-deductible donation, made possible by Creative Visions, a Malibu-based 501(c) non-profit, you're helping me build a slate and roster of major partners for these digital telethons alongside my independent commercial work. Donations also cover (reasonable) studio space, production help, marketing, and some proceeds will help launch a major personal project of mine: a first-of-its-kind narrative live-streamed film - with proceeds going to CureLGMD2i.

For donors of any amount, you'll get occasional updates on projects, my health journey, and stories worth sharing - maybe even a fun piece of physical mail if you're down!

For donors giving $500 +, I'd love to feature you or your org on a "Made Possible By" page and credit across certain projects. And if you'd like to suggest a foundation or cause to build a livestream fundraiser around, I'd be thrilled to make it happen.

If you just want to support, or share this with anyone who might be interested - that's beyond appreciated. Thanks for being here!

If donating by wire transfer, please email hello@527projects.com for Creative Visions instructions, if sending a check - you can do so below with "GREAT STATIONS" in the memo section.
