RE: Crowdfunding with Support of the Steemit-Community [Update]

in #music6 years ago

Thanks for the update, @shortcut. It's great that the community should help support worthwhile 'real world' projects like this while at the same time putting the name of Steemit out into that world via social media, etc.: a win-win. Let's hope Michelle can raise as much as she needs to make her documentary the best it can be and a worthy monument to one of the legendary figures of modern music, the unique Damo Suzuki.

Sort:  

Absolutely second that! Creating value outside of Steemit is the proof, that it's reallly different from traditional social-media. If everything fails, I would even help editing the movie (for free) to make it real ;-)

I get the impression it will be fine whatever, but if it's fully funded she'd be able to make it better. Did you hear about this other Damo film by the way? Hope all well with you. Looks like BTC is about to get slapped down below the Feb 5 low, don't you think? Great - that's all i need. :o)

Hope you're right ;-)

No, please tell me more about it.

Hope all well with you.

Getting a cold or something...

I really can't say. Unfortunately the downtrend may continue, but I'm very confident, that the next upswing will come sooner or later. Hopefully some of your low marketcap coins are doing better.

P.S.: Maybe you should consider crowdfunding one of your books. I guess, Stockhausen has some fans out there.

I need to sort out how to do the quotations thing you do. In the meantime I'll just reply to your points in order. :o)

Fim: check out @ZeroFilmsUK on Twitter. According to Michelle: "It’s an abstract film he’s doing with students − Damo is excited to act! (...) They e-mailed me for advice etc but we are kind of in direct competition now they used the same platform. Hopefully it won’t conflict and I can help them after my campaign is over.”

In another message she made it clear that she's not very happy that they have tapped into her hard-won 'Following' list and just followed everyone themselves.

Crypto market: I'm a great believer in JD Marshall, whose vid I RT every night. He doesn't try to call it, just gives the picture and the possibilities. Like you I'm confident an upswing will come, but like him I wouldn't be surprised if we don't make it back to $10K by EOY - which unfortunately will be too late for me.

Crowdfunding is certainly worth thinking about, though it would be for funds to finish the jazz book rather than the Stockhausen, which won't get finished. Meanwhile, getting active on Twitter has made me think how it could be a great way of getting outside eyes on my Steemit posts once I get started - which brings us full circle.

You can easily add a > sign followed by a space in front of the quote. That's all "Markdown" and you can check the possibilities here.

Thanks for pointing me to that feature film, I've not heard of it before. I don't know, what to think about it, but when a "Stone Transport" costs £3000 while "Cast an Crew fees" are £3500 and a signed poster (and a polaroid) costs £100, it somehow doesn't look like a project, that will be easily funded.

I saw you tweeting the videos of JD Marshall and I can totally understand, that it's interesting to follow the market development on a daily base. Fingers crossed, that the upswing will come earlier than any analyst predicts.

Looking into different ways of funding your projects and spreading the word, is really a good idea. I only recently rediscovered twitter as a perfect platform to connect with people outside of Steemit (especially in the #cryptoart niche). At least you could try to start writing some posts at Steemit, building your followership and maybe earning some cryptos at the same time.

Like that you mean? Great, and thanks so much for pointing me to that brilliant page. It's something I need to get to grips with before I start posting. Which, trust me, is coming soon, though I'll be building up a little stockpile first and upping them on a daily basis. That at least is the hope - let's see if I can sustain that pace.

As a formatting perfectionist, one thing that drives me slightly crazy is the space after each link, which is presumably unavoidable.

I've actually weaned myself off TA videos, which I got massively into when I was trying to work out whether to get out of the market then get back in lower down. Now I'm mostly in BNB which I hope will hold up quite well even when BTC goes sub-$6K and allow me to do a little amateur trading on Binance. JDM is my methodone after Tone Vays's hour-long vids of numbered candles. James gets it over with in 6-10 minutes, giving a very impressionistic idea of what's going on and what the critical levels are.

Exactly ;-) Posting regularly is a very good idea, but you shouldn't stress you too much. The most important thing is, that you enjoy, what you do.

They recently added this for all external links to prevent people from getting ripped off at phishing sites. The overall formatting is quite limited, but you will get used to it.

I definitely will keep an eye on those videos, because it's always good to have them at hand when needed. BNB looks quite well, I'm still hoping for some considerable moves of Steem, EOS and Stellar. We'll see.
