Boosted How To Guides
Planning your content
A crowdfunding campaign needs a ton of content. For the 30 or so days of funding, you’ll be coaxing, cajoling and flirting with your crowd, asking for money, and you’ve got to come up with a fresh way to ask every day. You’ve got to keep it interesting, enticing and exciting.31 Aug 2024

Wow thanks for the amazing generosity from everyone that has given and also shared our story to others. We are humbled by it. We have reached 51% of our total goal of $15,000. Also thanks to all the amazing feedback and support from everyone about the kaupapa of this project, we feel we are touching on a subject that is important to people. We start filming our first episode this weekend with an inspiring young man from Whakatane, and are reaching out to our networks to cast the tamariki / rangatahi that we will feature in our other episodes that we will film through late June / July. We have some great leads and if you know of anyone in the Bay of Plenty rohe who could be a great subject for an episode please let us know.4 Weeks to go on the campaign and still a lot of mahi to be done to reach our target so your continued support is vital to help share this campaign to others that can help.Thank you again and againKylie, Anton, Malachi, Judah and EzraFull Project Update -

He’s a full-time Videographer for The Attention Seeker: a social content agency located in Grey Lynn! He also has Photography and 3rd AC under his creative belt and will pilot our iPhone 16 Pro Max Cinema Rig - one that will prove both a challenge and a learning experience that leans in nicely with the aesthetic of this film! Glad to have you on board mate!Full Project Update
