The new Kickstarter launches in just a few days so I'm stopping by today to talk all about it!
First off, I wanna assure you guys (and this goes to anyone who's even vaguely interested in checking it out) that Kickstarters are not going to be a regular thing for us. This whole project is entirely self-funded and runs on the smallest of budgets, and even then we still produce some videos that don't look half-bad!
What we're trying to raise funds for is the purchase of a new camera. Up until now, everything we've ever filmed has been captured on my cell phone and using a motor-driven gimbal. Honestly, it's a constant struggle doing this -- from fighting the gimbal (the motor will just randomly give out at times) to constantly resetting brightness and exposure on the camera app (which constantly resets itself). If the Kickstarter is successful, we'll be using the funds to purchase a second-hand or otherwise relatively affordable camera (by that I mean, something on the commercially available side of things that we're able to handle; nothing too big or overly complicated). We're asking for $800 in total which, if you've ever scrolled through any page on Kickstarter, you'll know is a tiny amount in comparison to most other campaigns. If it doesn't pan out, though, no hard feelings! We'll just keep doing our best with what we have!
In return for any amount pledged, there'll be all sorts of things to choose from, including high quality signed prints (some of these photos have never been posted here or elsewhere), team shirts (featuring a freshly designed back piece created by a friend of the team), and even the opportunity to join us (digitally or in person) on one of our investigations!
Make sure to check us out! The Kickstarter launches May 18th and we'd really appreciate it even if all you can do is share the project!
