[...] Ryan Koo is the founder of film blogging website nofilmschool, where he writes articles aimed at the indie filmmaker. He’s been running the nofilmschool website since 2005 and has built up a fairly decent following, through releasing well informed and useful articles on a regular basis. When he decided to fund his Manchild film through Kickstarter, again, he led his existing community from the nofilmschool website to his Kickstarter page, but this was a bit more of an uphill struggle than Freddie W, only getting the full funding for the film on the last day. He details all the steps of the campaign in great detail here. [...]

Congratulations on your success. Your story is heartwarming and inspirational — Just as an all games video game podcast network that seeks to stay afloat, expand and bring video games news, previews, reviews and more to gamers everywhere — all on one network.
With just a few days to go, All Games Radio Network is in a similar situation as your project found itself– needing a large amount daily to reach its goal. But like the little engine that can, this video game network kickstarter is chugging along and would appreciate a push to the finish, ending in success with your backing.
Please support and spread the word for All Games Radio Network at http://www.allgames.com/kickstarter.

Hi, I am currently trying to raise money to shoot a feature film that deals with modern day bullying with teenagers, and the consequences that can come with it! Please checo out the kickstarter page, watch the PROMO trailer, and spread the word. It’s time to take a stand against bullying!!

This was a great and inspiring article! I myself am trying to figure out how to boost people coming to my page. Im a little stumped, I have a ton of likes and I am featured on DevelopTube (educational youtube photography channel) for this week because of my quality of work. However in close to the week I only have two donors. Maybe it is because of easter weekend. Anyway if you want to see some heartfelt photography work check out my link, the deadline is May 2nd 2012.

Awesome man.

I think your entire blog post could be summed up with: HARD WORK. DEDICATION.

There’s nothing less inspiring than a Kickstarter project with a 20 second video or no real thought or creativity or “pitch” in the video.

Ive been working on mine for a while now, and have started with the ground game: setup the facebook page, setup the twitter account. Get the website read. Start seeding them, so when it goes live, I have a base to work off of.

Congratulations man, and I hope the film turns out great.
