Merlin, thanks for connecting!
Hi Merlin. I'm RB, Founder and CEO of Stage 32. As a screenwriter, producer, actor and filmmaker, I know first-hand the challenges all creatives face finding work, landing representation, launching projects, securing funding and simply making the connections that will make a difference in their careers. That's why I created Stage 32.

This is a network for you, built by you. Like most things in life, the more you participate, the greater the rewards. We ask all new members to pay it forward by inviting 5 fellow creatives to the network and by spreading the word of Stage 32 through other social media sites such as Facebook, LinkedIn, and Twitter. The more creatives, the stronger the network. The stronger the network, the more opportunities.
Thanks for joining the movement and for being a part of this most talented and inspiring community. I very much look forward to your contributions.
Thanks, and have a creative day!
RB

Expand commentI wasn't involved on the creation of the crowdfunding site for my short film, but the producer decided to use GoFundMe rather than one of the sites more geared towards creative types. GoFundMe is more for charitable and individual support, while IndieGoGo or Kickstarter tend to favor artists and filmmakers, but the fees are higher. One of the ways that those two sites also help boost contributions and make the campaign successful is through offers based on the size of the contributions, such as signed scripts, a walk on role, links to the finished film before anyone else, etc. I would also suggest you make your goal smaller than you actually need (at least on Kickstarter, which is an all or nothing arrangement). Just do your research and see what campaigns are actually working on each of the sites and what they're offering to make them successful. They're are also a lot of reviews and comparisons out there on the web about these sites so make sure to check those out.

Expand commentHey Trevor Prime! I've worked on two of my own campaigns, one for a short film and another for a comic book series, and I've consulted on over 1,000 campaigns (I worked from 2013 - 2018 as Indiegogo's Film Campaign Strategist). All of my learnings from my short film campaign and well over two dozen other film campaigns are detailed in my book CROWDFUNDING FOR FILMMAKERS, so feel free to pick up a copy either on Amazon (https://goo.gl/xZmls4) or you can buy one directly from me for $25, as I'm including a free 15-minute phone consultation (an $80 value) for anyone who purchases a book from me before February 21st.
If you're interested, hit me up here or via email at jtrigonis@gmail.com and we'll get you all set up.
