I’m helping to fund a photographer’s project
I came across this site a few weeks’ ago. It’s a great idea and might even prove directly useful for me, one day.
Kickstarter is a site where people can set up a creative project, say how much funding they need and ask for donations. The funding will only be given to the creator if the total is reached, so nothing gets under-funded with higher-priced expectations.
Landscape photographer Dalton Rooney also mentioned it on his blog, so it made me join in. I’ve contributed to Brandon Schulman’s project ‘A Portrait of America Left Behind’.
His photos look great and I’ll be very excited to see his prints when they come. With 11 days to go, Brandon only needs $500. Join me!
UPDATE:
Brandon got the funding and is shooting the photos now. Can’t wait to see the results.
