Why I Fund - Interview with a Serial Funder

Paul Gitschner has funded 40 projects on IndieGoGo! Thank you Paul! 

As a fundraiser, it's sometimes hard to remember what it feels like to be a funder.  However, understanding your funders' interests, goals and motivations is key to your success!.  So take a moment to read what our Funder Extraordinaire had to say about why he funds on IndieGoGo.

"I found out about your site when someone who I helped with a script, shot a trailer and placed it on Indiegogo to raise funds.  I've since seen other films listed here from friends and even recommended Indiegogo to some of my local filmmakers." - Paul

"It's cool to be able to interact with others who have projects worldwide through your site. That's how it started and then, as a full time writer, with time on my hands, I got a little carried away." - Paul

"I'm not a major dollar funder.  Most of my contributions are small and a simple 'hello' and show of support, like buying a show ticket.  Being in Canada, I'm not going to go to events nor want them to go through the cost and bother of mailing stuff.  I want to keep up with what filmmakers are doing, right and wrong." - Paul

 

"It's more interesting to follow projects once you have some, even a minor connection.  All the horses look the same unless you put place a bet.  Then it's easy watching yours." - Paul
