Kickstarter & Crowdfunding Video Production Agency San Francisco
Are you looking for crowdfunding video production? Indiegogo? Kickstarter? Something else. Whatever the case, we are here to help make you the best crowdfunding video. You’ve put in countless hours of hard work and we believe your video should reflect that. Over the years, we’ve worked with countless brands to help launch their crowdfunding product in a way that not only connects with viewers but converts them! You’ve only got a few seconds to connect with the viewer. So it’s our job to hook them immediately. Our crowdfunding videos are ready to take your product’s success to the next level
Our Crowdfunding Video Production Process
We start by learning as much as possible about the product and the brand which surrounds it. We want to make something that resonates with consumers so it’s essential we educate ourselves on it’s characteristics and what sets it apart from the competitors. What are the key features we are going to highlight in the video? What are the key demographics we are marketing to? After developing potential storylines, we settle on which will resonate best with your target audience and get to work! Custom crowdfunding video production should be polished and professional, just like the rest of your brand. We’ll integrate seamlessly to make sure everything from the type and graphics are on brand and something that will set you apart!
Our professional video production team is located in San Francisco but many clients ship their products to us. We can then work with our crew, along with the diverse Bay Area landscape to craft a film that will put your campaign on the map.
Crowdfunding Video Case Studies
Impact Biosystems
Impact Biosystems came to us looking for a cinematic commercial for their upcoming crowdfunding campaign. It was important to them that the video show a few real athletes amongst varying environments. For this shoot, we shot it over the course of two days between Boston and San Francisco. On day one, we were at the company’s headquarters capturing the interview bits as well as the R&D and team shots. On day two, we focused on the athletes as well as the actual use of the product.
With regards to equipment and crew, we tried to put as much as possible on the screen! We used an Alexa Mini with Cooke Anamorphic Superflares for an incredible image. Our film crew was relatively small in Boston and scaled up just slightly for a little more polish in San Francisco.

Sitpack
Sitpack came to us looking for help to launch their Campster chair on Indiegogo. A chair that puts a spin on the traditional camping chair. They had a wide group of target customers, so we came up with a storyline for a product video that tied them all together! After we finished the initial crowdfunding video production and the campaign had launched, they also hired us to make numerous social edits to target consumers on multiple platforms including Instagram and Facebook.
Mymug
Mymug was looking to change the ceramic cup game. They were tired of the traditional coffee mugs and wanted to make a product that wasn’t only nice to hold, but actually kept your drink hot or cold. We shot this crowdfunding video over a course of two days and tried to show its elegant design while highlighting its key features. VW bus? Beautiful scenery? A rad coffee shop? This one had it all!
Photobus
This photobus kickstarter video project was fun! The product wasn’t done before production and so we were given the challenge of selling an idea to viewers for their future use. We focused on the lifestyle elements in order to drive relatability and success! This was a fun crowdfunding video!
How long does crowdfunding video production take?
We start every project with a thorough understanding of the product, the campaign and any potential obstacles in the way of completion? Only have a prototype? Need custom 3d animations? Need graphics? The long answer short is…it depends. Let us know as much as possible up front and we’ll give you a reasonable estimate for how quickly we can complete the job. That said, we’ve tackled crowdfunding campaign videos in as little as two weeks and they were a smashing success!
What platform do you recommend for my crowdfunding video?
Good question. We’ve worked on video campaigns for both Kickstarter and Indiegogo. There isn’t necessarily a right or wrong answer, but both should give you a very viable platform for campaign success. Kickstarter does seem to take more tech, games and design campaigns though, where as indiegogo seems to get more Fashion & Wearables, Transportation, or Travel & Outdoors projects.
How much does crowdfunding video cost?
You guessed it. Video production for crowdfunding really varies. There are many factors to consider, such as the length of the video, number of actors, locations, voiceover, music, graphics, and launch timeframe. We’ve done campaigns anywhere from 10k to 100k. That said, we want to help maximize your budget effectively to make sure your campaign is a success. We can guide you through our process and give you recommendations of what we’ve seen work well in the past. We also have connections at both Indiegogo and Kickstarter who we can lean on in case you have any questions!
Should I shoot my crowdfunding video myself?
If you don’t have any video production experience, we REALLY wouldn’t recommend it. Ensuring that your video is of high-quality is among the most important tips we could give you. After countless calls of clients who didn’t reach their goal and were going to try again, it was obvious that the one thing that each one had was a poorly produced video. Shooting a poor-quality video may convey the wrong impression to your audience. Marketing your idea with a high-quality video – one that includes graphics and high-quality imagery- shows some reliability in your ideas. Therefore, don’t sacrifice your chance of success by opting for reduced Crowdfunding video costs!
Why do I need a Kickstarter video for my campaign?
A well-crafted Kickstarter video can differentiate between a successful and unsuccessful campaign. Whether you’re in the San Francisco Bay Area or elsewhere, having a professional video helps potential backers understand your project, build trust, and feel confident in supporting your venture.
How does Indiegogo videography differ from Kickstarter?
Indiegogo videography may differ slightly in approach, depending on the audience and campaign style. The team here at Luma Creative is skilled at tailoring our work to fit the nuances of different crowdfunding platforms.
What elements are essential for a compelling crowdfunding video?
A compelling crowdfunding video should include a clear explanation of your project, a demonstration of the product or service, testimonials if available, and a strong call-to-action. Incorporating high production values and a professional presentation can make a significant difference.
