What is crowdfunding?

Why crowdfund?

crowdfunding. •  Access to funds •  Public funding can be challenging to obtain •  May not share your vision •  Private investment in film and transmedia is difficult •  Requires you to give away rights and control •  Crowdfunding blends the best parts of public and private financing: flexibility + control •  It’s “proof-of-concept” to other financiers •  You take your project directly to the audience

engage. •  Engaging & develop audiences early •  Before the project is completed •  Use their feedback •  Engage those that are interested in your topic •  Particularly important to doc makers •  Contributors are giving you more than money •  Giving you their time, attention, energy •  They are betting on you to succeed!
