This past week, we've had a lot of input from filmmakers who have used the IndieGoGo crowdfunding platform. Filmmakers have been sharing techniques and best practices on what made their campaigns a success. It's a practice we hope will continue for all filmmakers, across all platforms, utilizing a wide range of tools. Let's figure this out, together. Today is no exception. Although a lot has already been said on the subject, there is still more that can be added about how to make crowdfunding really work for your film.

Last week documentary film “Salaam Dunk” premiered at Los Angeles Film Festival.

They look like an American high school team rather than middle schoolers tripping and falling and forgetting to dribble. Yet their competition is fierce. There are few women’s basketball teams in Iraq, so these young women are forced to play against state-sponsored clubs with players who’ve been practicing for years, some of whom are even paid. And those are just the challenges they face on the court.
