About the event

Masterclass: Crowdfunding Animation with Mikkel Mainz
Gain insight into the process and potential of crowdfunding, along with the advantages and challenges of this financing model.
In this masterclass, Mikkel Mainz shares his experiences using crowdfunding to finance animated projects. Using Tales of Alethrion as a case study, Mikkel offers a behind-the-scenes look at the process, opportunities, and challenges of engaging audiences as co-creators.
Participants will gain practical knowledge on how to plan a campaign, build a community, and communicate a creative vision — essential insights for anyone exploring alternative ways to fund their own projects.
