Writer and Producer Anna Keizer from the upcoming short film, She Had It Coming, joins us for a frank conversation on her first foray into crowdfunding to raise money for her project.

Crowdfunding has been instrumental in shifting the fundraising dynamic in independent film over the past few years, putting millions of dollars and more at the fingertips of small, microbudget filmmakers. With this newfound access however, comes a litany of new worries and concerns that extend far beyond just filmmaking for many aspiring artists.

Join us for the first half of an enlightening two part discussion with Anna, talking all about her first crowdfunding experience through Seed & Spark, and the challenges that still remain for her new project.
