Lessons
Class Description
If you have a ground-breaking idea for a film or photography project but don’t have the funds to get it off the ground, Kickstarter is one of the tools you can use to transform your aspirations into reality. However, less than 45 percent of campaigns on the crowdfunding site are successful so how do you make sure you’ll succeed? The key is preparation—and winning the race before you even get started.
Join CreativeLive instructor Clay Hebert to learn how to make all the right moves and get the most out of this powerful crowdfunding tool.This one-day course will provide you with tips, tricks, and best practices for using Kickstarter. You’ll learn about the optimal setup for a Kickstarter campaign, including how to identify the best backers. Clay will discuss the importance of pre-planning your campaign from start to finish. You’ll also learn about making the video and text content on your Kickstarter page dynamic and compelling to potential backers.
By the end of this course, you’ll know which types of projects actually succeed on Kickstarter and be prepared to use it to its fullest potential, attract the backers you need, and fund any project.

There's so much to learn about Kickstarter, what a pleasure to find it all in one comprehensive course! The title states Kickstarter for "Photographers and Filmmakers", but the material and ideas are relevant to all different media! (I'm working on publishing a book!) The pre-launch information was invaluable and comprehensive. Great class, great value! Thank you, Clay!
