Welcome to Crossroads010.

As a packaging agency based in the economic strongest region in the Netherlands it is our ambition to put together and structure international creative projects and help existing organizations realize their plans.

Being completely independent we love to work together directly with creators, writers, directors, composers and all other individual talents, but also with production companies, cultural oraganizations, festivals and local governments.

Our experienced team of experts and advisors always aims for the most realistic goal and creative solution, bringing together all necassary skills your project needs.

Our activities contain:

– Initial development.   `
– Finance and fundraising
– Marketing
– Rights
– Sales

Crossroads010 welcomes new ideas but does not accept unsollicited material without a query letter first.

Last but not least, the projects we are currently working on are very different from each other, but all do share good storytelling for a worldwide audience, meaningful subjects – often with a strong focus on Africa – and an interesting and highly transparent business case.

His life takes a drastic turn when he gets entangled in the web of the mighty and merciless merchant Charles Bourget. After a series of dramatic and tragic events, bringing Sebastian along many places in Europe, he eventually arrives in a hamlet in the south of England where he as an embittered man passes his days in quiet. Until twelve year old Thomas Morton crosses his path and who is determined to explore the sinistre caves in the soul of the master and getting to the bottom of his deepest secret.

Mr. BlueCap,

Producer, composer, songwriter Mr. BlueCap – born in Rotterdam, The Netherlands – is a true storyteller. His music currently reaches listeners in more than 50 countries around the world and is available on Spotify, YouTube, and all other major streaming platforms.

As a former scriptwriter / filmproducer and novelist, his work often relates to feature film projects and in many songs he refers to historical events or persons. For instance ‘The street of St. John’ tells the story of Erasmus, the song ‘The politician, a liar’ refers to the biggest financial fraude worldwide of the 19th century, and ‘A loss beyond words’ is based on the MH17 Malaysia Airlines air crash / shotdown.

Mr. BlueCap prefers to create songs on guitar and always writes his own lyrics.

The uplifting song ‘I’m an artist, I create’ is directly based on the work and goals of the Youngblood Foundation – Youngblood Africa, arts & culture development.
After reading the information on their website and being inspired by the various artist videos, he immediately started working on the song, trying to capture the spirit of true creativity and pay tribute to the efforts and achievements of their gallery in the center of Cape Town.

The vintage jazz song ‘Mr. James Gilmore’ represents the feature film project of the same name. A compelling social drama full of humor and music for a worldwide audience.

For more info or questions, please feel free to contact Mr. BlueCap through this website.
