Sophie Kuno (Touscoprod), Mathieu Maire du Poset (Ulule), Colin Brown (Slated), Marc Hofstatter (Indiegogo) and Dan Schoenbrun (Kickstarter).
This is an extract from the panel on crowdfunding held at the Cannes Film Market’s NEXT. The world’s key players on crowdfunding discussed the main issues on one of the most highly demanded financial resources today.
Plot: Cineuropa’s editor in chief moderated an almost two-hour-long debate and Q&A with Kickstarter’s Dan Schoenbrun, UIule’s Mathieu Maire du Poset, Sophie Kuno from Touscoprod, Slated’s Colin Brown, and Marc Hofstatter, from Indiegogo. All five guests work for five major creative crowdfunding platforms in the world, although their strategies on the different stages of film production and distribution vary a lot from one another.
