InShare. Some thoughts on crowdfunding. Last Thursday I attended the webinar ”Transmedia Outsold or Sold Out”, hosted by the people behind the Storyworld Conference. Informative, thought provoking and all around a well spent hour (check out hashtag #swc11 for tweets from the session, or go here to take part of the recorded session (needs e-mail to access)). There were other people listening to the webinar as well, amongst them Tom Liljeholm from my neighbouring country Sweden. Tom has been involved in The Truth About Marika, in Conspiracy for Good and is now working with new transmedia project The Karada (which btw sounds absolutely fab). Tom asked me if I was going to Storyworld or not. I replied that I’d love to go, but funds weäre not readily available. I mean, we can bicker on about the definition of transmedia (and I agree that it, for several reasons, public funding one of them, would be good to have a definition to cover all bases) but at this conference chances are some pretty awesome things are going to happen.
Crowdfunding. Un article de Ékopédia, l'encyclopédie pratique. Le Crowdfunding[1] est une approche permettant le financement de projets en faisant appel à un grand nombre de personnes ordinaires (internautes, réseaux de contact, amis, etc.) pour faire de petits investissements. Une fois cumulés, ces investissements permettront de financer des projets qui auraient potentiellement eu de la difficulté à recevoir un financement traditionnel (banques, investisseurs, etc.).
Grâce aux réseaux sociaux et aux communautés en ligne, il devient aujourd'hui facile et peu coûteux de rejoindre un grand nombre de personnes potentiellement intéressées à soutenir des projets. L'approche reçoit actuellement l'attention du public, en particulier des producteurs de cinéma indépendant[2][3]. Crowdfunding est utilisé pour répondre à une grande variété de besoins: secours aux sinistrés, journalisme citoyen, artistes cherchant le soutien, campagnes politiques, etc. Approches Exemples de projets Startup Cinéma Documentaire Musique.

Silverdocs: Talking transmedia and crowdfunding. While the Silverdocs Documentary Festival and Conference in Silver Spring spent the past week showcasing the best of international documentary from the past year, panel sessions at the end of the week are aiming to point the way forward in doc production and distribution. Thursday’s “Crowdfunding Success Strategies” session, conducted by filmmaker and DocuMentors co-founder Jilann Spitzmiller, broke down the mystery behind creating a successful crowdfunding campaign.
Spitzmiller drew from her own experience raising funds for her upcoming project Still Dreaming through IndieGoGo, as well as that of other filmmakers who’ve turned to crowdfunding to finance their projects (such as Jennifer Fox, who recently raised more than US$150,000 for her doc My Reincarnation via Kickstarter). While some filmmakers may view crowdfunding as a respite from shrinking commissions and tedious grant applications, Spitzmiller told the packed room that it is not an easy path.
