How it Works
Artists:
Mobilize an audience, raise money, turn your project into reality, and DIWO (Do-It-With-Others!)


Individual Profile:  First, tell us who you are! Upon signup, you can create a profile for you or your company (the administrator of your project).

Project Profile:  Next, create your project profile - your vehicle to showcase your project to the world for free.  Be creative and authentic, but don't wait for perfect - get rolling and edit as you go!


If fans appeared out of nowhere, we could all go home.  But alas they don't!  The good news is that now you have the DIWO share tools to reach new fans.

Reach Out:  Inviting friends, spreading GoGoWidgets, publishing to Facebook, and sharing on MySpace, Twitter, Digg and Yahoo Buzz! are just the beginning.

Take it to Influencers:  Go to bloggers, organizations and forums whose readers are already discussing topics your film addresses.  Tell them your project's story and ask them to share it with their friends too.

Fresh Content & Announcements:  Turn your viewers into promoters.  Keep your project's community updated with announcements and fresh content (videos, images, etc) in your project's Gallery.  Fans will automatically receive the updates via email or RSS.


Produce:  Your fans listened and took action.  Your audience grew and funding goals were met. Keep your fans engaged with progress updates and VIP Perks.  A happy fan is a fan for life!
Fans:
Discover projects, take action, and enjoy VIP Perks.

Come for a specific project?  Great!  Read it over, watch its videos, and learn more about the project's team.  If you like what you see take action and share it with others!


Now it's time to Make Independent Happen!  If you want to see a project made, your actions can help.

Demand it:  Show your interest in the project by requesting an event in your area.

Follow it:  If you like what you see, follow the project for updates.

Comment on it:  Ask questions, show your support, and even make suggestions.


Enjoy Updates & VIP Perks:  Whether you got a credit, a party invite, or lunch with the content creator, take pride that you took a project one step closer to being completed.  Enjoy the VIP Perks, progress updates, and newly gained insider status.
