You're pledging to donate if the project hits its minimum goal and gets approved. If not, your funds will be returned.
I'm producing a video about the Google DeepMind hunger strike, which I led in September 2024 and received coverage in The Verge, The Telegraph, Sky News and Le Monde. I need $1,750 to complete it. I've already secured $2,700 from a private donor and am contributing my own time.
Budget needed:
Video editor: $4,050 (15 minutes of video edited at $270 / edited minute)
$2,700 already funded = $1,350 needed
Scriptwriter: $400 - $400 needed
Total ask: $1,750
The editor and scriptwriter have worked with Drew Spartz on videos with millions of views and other YouTube channels with billions of views.
