Kickstarter exists to help bring creative projects to life. A home for film, music, art, theater, games, comics, design, photography, and more.

Kickstarter uses an all-or-nothing funding model. If your project doesn’t reach its goal, then funds don’t get collected, and no money changes hands. This minimizes risk for creators — imagine ending up with only $5,000 and a bunch of people expecting a $50,000 film!

You'll learn why Kickstarter is the ideal platform to launch your creative project, how crowdfunding builds a community around your work, and tips to make your project successful. Whether you're a seasoned creator or a newbie, we got you covered to make the process as worry-free as possible.

Kickstarter is full of ambitious, innovative, and imaginative ideas that are brought to life through the direct support of others. Everything on Kickstarter must be a project with a clear goal, like making an album, a book, or a work of art.
