Why Use Video For Your Crowdfunding Campaign?
Getting to the heart of the matter is crucial when running a crowdfunding campaign. Crowdfunder videos need to be powerful and hard-hitting so that they inspire followers to support your cause and take action. The message is everything when it comes to crowdfunding video production. Your campaign must be translated in a way to which people can relate, motivating them to stand with you and help to make a difference.
Understanding the viewer’s POV is the cornerstone to making powerful crowdfunder videos which deliver on every level. Whether you’re appealing to the local community, business partners or loyal followers, it’s pivotal to have a knowledge of what will stir each person to take action.
With our deep knowledge of digital marketing strategies and passion for storytelling, we take the time to understand your appeal and make crowdfunding videos which smash targets time and time again.

A Crowdfunding Video Which Raised over £10k
Newquay AFC
Crowdfunder UK got in touch with us and asked us to create a crowdfunding video for Newquay AFC (or “The Peppermints” as they are fondly known).
The club was going through tough times after being severely impacted by the Covid pandemic which lead to rising debts and facilities in dire need of repair.
The aim of the Crowdfunder campaign was to reach out to Newquay AFC’s fans and business partners, as well as appealing to the local community for support. This project is what could definitely be described as a ‘run and gun’ shoot as it was a last-minute call by Crowdfunder to put the film together. They knew they could count on us, and we certainly delivered.
The video raised over £10k for the club and needless to say, they were over the moon with the results!
"Bull & Wolf get it. They understand what it takes to tell a brilliant story. They took a complicated brief in difficult circumstances and produced a beautiful short film that resonated with our audiences, partners and key stakeholders. We're looking forward to working together again and telling more brilliant stories."
The Simple Process of Crowdfunder Video Production
DISCOVERY
We start by getting to know your campaign and your aims. We love nothing more than hearing your ideas and kick-starting the flow of creative juices. Once we know your aims and objectives, we can begin to plan your crowdfunding video and suggest the best course of action for you and your campaign. We will work with you to create a storyboard for the videos so that every aspect has been considered. We can even help you script a video and record voiceover if required.
THE SHOOT
Once the pre-production and careful planning has been executed, then we shoot. This is where you really get to show off your business. We can rally the team and bring in actors and props, or keep it nice and simple. We’ll also capture stunning and relevant footage to help illustrate your words.
POST-PRODUCTION
This is where our true expertise comes into play. Polishing the footage to ensure it’s presented professionally and formatted correctly for each crowdfunding portal is crucial to the video’s success. We use a simple, hassle-free review platform to make the post-production process perfectly painless for everyone involved. Once any changes have been made and you’re happy with the final video we will send you a download link and you can upload the video to your social channels and launch your campaign. We’ll advise on paid placements and marketing strategy to ensure your social media ad really goes the distance.
DON't FORGET THE PLANET
We are supporting Plant One and their Nature Positive Business scheme, restoring ancient woodlands of Cornwall and planting native trees to restore and help biodiversity.
Why is Video Vital for the Success of Your Crowdfunding Campaign?
Crowdfunding has transformed the fundraising landscape in recent years by putting the power back into the hands of the people and providing a means of gathering game-changing support, fast. Whether you use Crowdfunder, GoFundMe or Kickstarter, creating a crowdfunding campaign has become a significant source of start-up capital for many entrepreneurs, small businesses and individuals looking to make real change. If you’re looking for a powerful way of communicating with your prospective backers, a crowdfunding video is a surefire way of making your campaign count.
Attention spans are notoriously short, so every second counts. Using video to present your appeal is a smarter, faster way of getting that all-important message across. A crowdfunding video engages your viewers from the outset so that vital information isn’t lost among reams of dry text. A one-minute video is worth a million words and can be the difference between a big fat zero and lots of lovely little zeros. If you don’t use a video for your crowdfunding appeal, you could be doing your campaign a real disservice.
OUR TOP Tips for a Successful Crowdfunding Video Campaign
Be Clear About Your Objectives
Ensuring that your objectives are crystal clear is a pivotal part of any successful crowdfunding campaign video. Remember that although your ultimate goal is to get money, you need to invite people to help you fulfill a particular goal for your business, and spell out the reward they will get in return.
Tell the Story
Facts are necessary but not necessarily inspiring. If you want backers to part with their cash, you need to connect with them on a deeper level by sharing a great story, This is most readily done by using video and enlisting the help of videographers who live and breathe storytelling, like the creative team here at Bull & Wolf.
Professionalism
Being as professional as you can will pay dividends in the long run. Investing in your crowdfunding campaign by using professional video producers will show backers that you mean business and that you’ll be smart with their money in the future. Don’t cut corners as it will only serve to negate your overall professionalism and intention.
