About ImprovLive365

Whether we are raising a family, going to school, working in an office, or creating art, the success of everything we do depends on our ability to spontaneously create solutions to the challenges life presents us.  This spontaneous creativity is a natural, practical, and incredibly important part of life.  We all use and intuitively understand it, but we rarely talk about it, ask how other people do it, or find out how to get better at it ourselves.

Every day we see the positive impact that a greater understanding of creativity can bring to peoples daily lives. That's the inspiration for ImprovLive 365, a daily web series dedicated to exploring, documenting, and sharing the improvisational, spontaneous creativity of life.

ImprovLive 365 invites you to come along with us as we:

• Interview creative people from all professions and walks of life
• Explore practical ideas for living in a more creative and spontaneous way
• Share the joy and fun of music and arts, through impromptu performances, private sessions between friends, and shows of all kinds.
• Find out about the latest breakthroughs in our understanding of improvisation and creativity
• Give people of all ages the direct experience of exploring their own spontaneous creativity through free educational programs 
  

We Need Your Help!

You can help launch ImprovLive 365, by donating to our IndieGoGo project and by spreading the word to your colleagues, family, and friends.  

Most of our initial goal of $5,000 will purchase the equipment necessary to launch and sustain an ongoing web series (including a HD video camera, lighting, laptop computer, software, server space, and portable hard drives).  The remaining funds will be used to pay a nominal fee to the volunteer technical support staff.   Any money raised over our goal will go directly towards providing even more free educational programs to schools and community centers. 

In addition to our sincerest gratitude, every donation gets you fun and interesting perks;  from t-shirts to private lessons, concerts to our documentary DVD (see the perks on this page).  But even more importantly, supporting ImprovLive 365 gives us all an opportunity to enrich our schools, ourselves, and our communities. 

We're excited about this year of improvisation, and even more excited to be sharing it with you.  Let us know how spontaneous creativity impacts your life, any subjects youd like to see covered, and any creative and interesting people you think should be featured in an episode.

Thanks for visiting us here at our IndieGoGo campaign, and thanks for joining us on ImprovLive 365. 

FAQ: 

Where can I learn more about ImprovLive 365?

You can learn more about ImprovLive 365 host and creator Tom Hall at his website www.freeimprovisation.com   Additional details about ImprovLive 365 will also be posted on Twitter, Facebook, YouTube and of course, on this IndieGoGo page.  Links to all these sites are clickable below.

How does donating through IndieGoGo work?
No matter where you live, IndieGoGo makes it easy to help us fund our project.  You can make a donation by Papal, credit card or check in any amount youd like by selecting the amount you'd like to donate and clicking "CONTRIBUTE NOW."  You can choose your own amount or use one of the amounts weve picked out that are accompanied by various perks and rewards.  

IndieGoGo takes a small fee out of the total money collected.  Otherwise, ALL money donated goes directly toward funding production costs for ImprovLive 365.

What's with the perks?
When you donate, you will get a thank you gift from us.  These gifts change, depending on how much you donate, and the perks list on the side of this page shows you what gifts are available for different levels of donation.  You can also opt out of receiving your gift when you donate, or choose to have someone else receive the gift (just let us know when we contact you).  We will be contacting you with your perks. Some, like the documentary DVD,  won't be available until the ImprovLive 365 year is finished, so please be patient.

If you live outside of the United States, please add $15 for shipping.

What's the point of the Goal?
Our goal has been calculated to enable us to produce ImprovLive 365, and the concerts and educational programs associated with it.  If we meet our goal, IndieGoGo takes out a smaller fee, which means we get even MORE money toward our project.

It is possible - and completely beneficial - to exceed our goal!  Any amount received over our goal will be put directly towards extending our educational and community outreach, which means more free programs in our schools and communities.
