The Crowd

I t’s been incredibly interesting to watch the

rise (and fall) (and occasionally astonishing

rise) of crowdfunded filmmaking. I love the

principle of micro-investors collectively “backing”

a film, and I especially love the democracy of it,

that people can influence and participate in the

production a film. (Rob Thomas’ Veronica Mars

Kickstarter film raised almost $6,000,000, proving

there exists a film people really want to see.)

Whenever there’s a Kickstarter, Indiegogo

or Seed&Spark project that involves members

of our Digital Video and Digital Video Expo

extended family—Jared Abrams, Philip Bloom,

Jeffrey Schwartz, Mike Rotman, Julia Meltzer and

Laura Nix, Audrey Ewell and Aaron Aites, Ryan

Koo—I make sure to back it, just on principle.

The campaign doesn’t always succeed, but I

feel very strongly about supporting the creative

professionals who have supported us. And if there’s

a project by or about someone I admire—like Paul

Schrader or Charlie Kaufman—I tend to “invest”

in that too.

As a supporter, you feel very proprietary about

“your” projects. Before showing a friend the

trailer for Bret Easton Ellis and Paul Schrader’s

crowdfunded film The Canyons , I (loudly) declared,

“Oh yes, I’m a producer on this.” (After the trailer,

which was a little queasy-making, I wasn’t as loud

in my declarations, but I still liked that I had played

a small part in its creation.)

I would guess almost every reader of Digital

Video has considered crowdfunding a passion

project, but there’s a lot to learn about the realities

of crowdfunding, especially as larger projects enter

this universe (like the Veronica Mars film, or Zach

Braff ’s sequel to Garden State , Wish I Was Here ).

I’ve compiled some articles that can be accessed at

creativeplanetnetwork.com/dv/crowd, including a

great blog post titled “Who is Kickstarter for?” from

Kickstarter’s own Perry Chen, Yancey Strickler

and Charles Adler. I’d also recommend you read

the very useful e-book by James Cooper titled

Kickstarter for Filmmakers . It can be found at, yes,

www.kickstarterforfilmmakers.com.

Julia Meltzer and Laura Nix’s documentary The Light in

Her Eyes was funded via Kickstarter. You can read about

the film in the August 2012 issue of Digital Video .

Partially funded by Kickstarter, 99%—The Occupy Wall

Street Collaborative Film was co-directed by Audrey

Ewell and Aaron Aites, speakers at last year’s Digital

Video Expo.
