Workshop: Crowdfunding to Build Independence

75 minute discussion panel. A portion of all donations are shared with the filmmakers.

Join Seed&Spark Founder and CEO Emily Best and Vermont filmmaker Michael DiBiasio-Ornelas to learn more about crowdfunding. Most people think about crowdfunding simply as a fundraising tool, but it’s so much more than that. Discover how to have a successful crowdfunding campaign. You’ll learn how to find your audience, structure your crowdfunding campaign, pick the right goal and incentives, and more.
