Indietalkers HELP/SHARING thread. Do your part. - Page 3 - IndieTalk

Papertwinproductions · 07-04-2011, 06:45 AM

I'm not sure "likes" are appropriate to put in the OP. (I can see it becoming too vast to keep track of)

As it's a production company FB, rather than one purely for the project alone you're trying to market. It seems a little out of place, amongst the projects competing for funding above.

Once it is finished (as it doesn't appear to be at the moment) and ready to go, then it would be perfectly fine. But at the moment we're keeping it to five, so that it is easily managable for members to share throughout the day.

I'm quite happy to ammend the OP if others disagree.

p.s Is everybody keeping on top of things? Still guns'a blazin' I hope?

I really appreciate this thread and your plugging of the WORN project (and the others) but I remain optimistically realistic.

No pie-in-the-sky here. If we hit the $1,000 mark I'd be amazed.

As the saying goes, Blood from stones...

PaulGriffith · 07-04-2011, 01:15 PM

I've been sharing for sure. Some on twitter/FB, lot's of word of mouth. I'd like to see Worn get made.

Thanks for the Roomate of the Year love too, I think we're doing pretty good so far, but gotta keep it up. The 6 week voting phase sucks but we're about half way through!

Has everybody got PAUL GRIFFITHS page bookmarked?

It's coming to an end, and we've got a new fresh campaign ready and waiting. It's aiming to raise $2,000,000! Production quality through the ROOF.

So, exciting times. Be sure to bookmark PG's page, and let me know when you have done so.

Yay! Another Indietalker (indeed THE indietalker) having a go at crowdfunding. I'll try and throw a few dollars your way.

The trouble with all these sites is that you have to donate in dollars and in my warped sense of the world one Pound is equivalent to about 3 or 4 hundred dollars!

Anyhow, what's done is done

I think we should limit the OP to just campaigns by people on Indietalk. There are loads of cool campaigns about but it gets a bit arbitrary if we're not just posting indietalkers campaigns.

Just my $0.02 or £0.000002

Just an idea I'm going to propose as an incentive and reminder to keep everybody interested.

Crowdfunding is fast becoming the leading and most widely accessible investment initiative for artists/creatives. From first-time film-makers to professionals, like-minded people are being inspired to share and contribute to eachothers work. That's what we want, isn't it?

It's the equivelant of busking to an audience of musicians and music lovers. It's playing to your audience, it's investment in YOU and your art, by people who purely want to see you succeed. Not reluctantly handing over a cheque to only speak again when they're repaid.

What I propose is -atleast for those interested- is to donate MONTHLY $10 (Feel free to do more). Be that ten $1 donations or all in one go. It's not alot. Put it aside. Even for those saving for projects, equipment, trips away etc. This gives you full access on Kickstarter, to recieve all the updates, converse with other contributors, and to follow the projects all the way to the end.

OR

For those who cannot spare the cash. Follow the FIVE campaigns. Read the updates, see how they interact with their contributors. Take notes of what they're doing right, and what they're doing wrong. Follow the journey and discover what it takes. Successful, or unsuccessful.

Everything is there for you.

Ever thought the idea you have would just flourish with the right investment, if it could just reach an audience people would love it...?

There's your platform. Learn how to walk, then start running.

Well done! That's a really good job

@PTP: You should probably take the Hog the Spotlight campaign off the OP because I got an email last week from Gilles saying that the project had been postponed and that they were refunding donations... yet another reason why you should use Kickstarter rather than IndieGoGo...
