Ecological Streetwear: My Kickstarter Project
I just launched a Kickstarter project. It's a small t-shirt line meant to spread the awareness of animal conservation. You can check it out here.
Last year, I took a class on how to screen print. Screen printing is something I have always wanted to get into, and I was very encouraged by my teacher who told me I had grasped it well. Unfortunately, I also learned screen printing can be very expensive. Over the summer, I really struggled with the costs of starting. The super smart Tanuki I live with suggested I use Kickstarter to help me out.
Unexpectedly, it took a considerable amount of time to put together. Much of that time was sucked up by: research, illustration, typeface hunting, and cost calculations. To polish the project, I: recorded a video, edited it, made headers for my "story," and made a pie graph showing the money breakdown. I am pretty happy with how the Kickstarter page looks, but this is only just the beginning! Donor rewards start at just $5! If you can't donate, please share. ^^
