The minimalist fresh manner of this kickstarter video supports easiness and slickness of the product design.

Best Kickstarter Videos of 2018 

What name comes to your mind when you think about a Kickstarter video? Regardless of your answer, we will like to give you some of the trendy Kickstarter of 2018. These videos comprise short product descriptions to enable you to understand what it’s all about. Here we have gathered 10 types of Kickstarter videos that prove to have shown success or stand out in some ways. You might want to take some of these ideas yourself to take your product or idea to the next level.

1.   SMART CLOTHES KICKSTARTER VIDEO

Smart clothes and outfits – still a hot topic, new smart materials, and technologies adjusting to your body temperature while moving. Dressing smart makes the wearer reveal an air of confidence. There are several benefits one gets to enjoy when switching from the conventional dress to smart clothes. Clothing is no longer about what looks good. What we wear is changing the way we live life.

Product: Ministry of Supply

Mercury Jacket. Right Heat at the Right Time. Outwear that’s voice-controlled, built for anything, automatically heats to the right temperature, and learns your behavior to get better over time.

Video: A very slick modern video utilizing a standard but evergreen approach relevant to Kickstarter videos: explaining the problem, showing people trying to cope with it nowadays, and the new solution with its benefits. We like this video because of the clear images, entirely clear visualized advantages of it, and the detailed and touching story behind the product delivered by founders in the founder interview. Even though the video is a bit long, almost 4 minutes, it keeps you watching it to the end thanks to great storytelling and amazing shots

2.   GAME KICKSTARTER VIDEO

The number of the video/table/cards games project is tremendous on Kickstarter and keeps on increasing since 2016, so those projects just can’t be ignored in our top.

Product: Luna Moon & Helius Sun Playing Cards. 

Video: This playing cards video is an excellent example of how you can show a product that potentially has issues with showing it in an interesting and engaging way, comparing to other types of products on Kickstarter. Usually, it’s mostly the gameplay type of the Kickstarter video prevailing in this crowdfunding segment.

The Luna Moon & Helius Sun Playing Cards has a terrific product design itself which, of course, eases the video production, but, as well as the previous example, the emphasis on storytelling (the great work or copyrighter or creative director) is what makes this video outstanding. The right mixture of the beauty product shots, founder story, and great copy creates a magical experience. This is a very decent piece of Kickstarter video production in 2018.

3.   SOCIAL PROJECTS

We all want to experience a change, but we find it difficult to get the needed financial resources. That is where we need a Kickstarter video. This Kickstarter platform helps to raise funds for humanitarians, entrepreneurs, and every other person interested in engaging in a community project. Social projects represent areas around the world, helping people who are less fortunate or have never had the opportunity to thrive. These stories touch our hearts which gives them the right to be on this list.

Project: Mike Yung. Never give up

A music album and docu-style Kickstarter video together.

Video: This Kickstarter video length is longer compare to most videos. It is a 5-mins long video that looks more like a short documentary, but apparently, it’s exactly the format and timing needed to reveal this powerful heart-rending story of a personal struggle of the talented musician found in Brookline Subway station singing for a few bucks.

The plot of this video leads us through the life-long story of Mike pursuing his dream as a young musician who wants to become one of the best musicians in America. This video leaves a strong message that by keeping the hard work no matter what you will be rewarded. All 5 mins on one breath, truly engaging and inspiring and filled with compassion/empathy for the hero.

The Insane work of the Director of Photography and post-production team (video editing and color correction) can’t stay unnoticeable too. The video is impressively filmed and delivers a powerful point to people. It showcases the great example of one’s personal struggles and determination to succeed.

4.   WEARABLE GADGETS KICKSTARTERS

Wearable fitness gadgets have become so popular nowadays with the success of Fitbit Garmin and the trend set by Apple watch which has encouraged people to keep track of their health. This fitness tracker has transformed into wearable devices that can be connected with wearable fitness gear that allows you to get to more advanced exercises. Not just walking or running where ever you are right now!

Product: Wearable gym by HYFIT.

Video: A great example of the Kickstarter video production that includes tons of outdoor footage with iconic Los Angeles views, such as Elysium park, Manhattan beach, Hollywood sign, lots of juicy drone footage and mountain tops. This video clearly explains the benefits of a new product exposing it to the core of its target audience – people that want to stay healthy, live longer and follow the main principles of longevity. The video also shows how it’s been used as a full-body workout which incorporates live tracking and resistance adjuster to make it a holistic exercise.

5.   GADGETS TO COPE WITH STRESS

There are several gadgets that help to cope with stress and ease the daily routine. These gadgets make us able to work with everyday stress while not allowing it to overwhelm us. Stress affects our productivity and performance, therefore, more gadgets that will help alleviate stress are welcome as a Kickstarter video.

Product: The Thinking Egg | It’s Time To Slow Down

Video: This video shows how the thinking egg can help you think and be conscious of where you are and basically slow down. It comes in the pine, brass, and howlite type which you can choose from. The visuals, in the beginning, stress us out because we can relate to the busy workplace. When the product is introduced, the imagery and music become calming as if we were about to enter into meditation.

The intelligent play on emotions makes this video relatable and draws us to want to have a Thinking Egg of our own so we can remind ourselves to slow down.

6-10.   LIFESTYLE/ MINIMALIST IN VIDEO PRODUCTION

We noticed the general tendency in raising the overall quality of Kickstarter video production in 2018, taking it to another level of postproduction, and moving away from the standard problem/solution traditional marketing approach towards excellent storytelling and full feature movie-like production.

Here are 4 recent Kickstarter videos of 2018 projects in line with this new trend:

Product: Angle Razor – a straight razor for the 21st Century

Video: This video shows a modern straight razor that is compatible with a standard razor blade and gives a satisfactory shaving experience. Made with 7075 aluminum and designed to last for a longer time compared to another conventional razor. Straight razors are intimidating for those who do not know how to use them. The Angle Razor provides a more user-friendly approach to those who like the close shave of a straight razor but are afraid of getting knicks all over their face. This video represents a solution with simple visuals and a fun way to ask for help towards the end.

Product: Skalpel | The world’s most stylish steak knife

Video: The video introduces the most stylish steak knife designed with a high level of precision and a high level of standard. It’s laser cut from a solid section of 8mm steel thickness which makes it sharper than an ordinary knife. The video was concluded by showing how accurate and neatly it cut through a piece of meat.

Product: HORIZON Watch – Change one thing. Change everything.

Video: The video started like a movie scene talking about our cherished moments and the ones we share with our loved ones. It then went on to talk about the horizon between day and night which is essentially what the watch shows us.

Product: The Light Phone 2

Video: The video shows a white portable phone which can fit comfortably into the pocket, and any other place you wish to keep it. It makes just phone calls and ensures that you never miss important calls anymore. Smart devices have caused us to forget to live in the moment, but the Light Phone gives us that time back because it is just a phone. There are no apps, no alerts, no social media, and it just makes phone calls.

Product: KeyClip Wallet 2.0 – Combine YourEvery dayCarry

Video: Bulky wallets are a thing of the past. Men are now carrying money clips, their phones, and keys. This video shows the external features of the key clip wallet, and it went on to display some of the things that could be kept in it. For example, you can use it for, keys, flash drives, debit cards and so much more.

11-12. DIY AND MACHINED FOR AT-HOME PRODUCTION

Reality television and Pinterest have popularized DIY. We are now making in-home beers, renovating our homes, and making our own apparel. Most remarkable production could be done at home with the advent of the do-it-yourself machine. With a little bit of research, you can start making your first product from your home. With modern technology DIY and machined for production at home becomes more comfortable and more efficient

Product: Kniterate: The Digital Knitting Machine

Video: Knitting is a bit retro but with our face-paced lives and it’s hardly a hobby we choose to invest in. This digital knitting machine gives us the ability to create unique products with a choice of fabrics used. This video shows a modern knitting machine and how it works to produce a perfect cloth design. It produced a designer muffler within a few minutes by just giving the digital model you intend to knit.

Product: LIVIN Farms Hive

Video: The video wants us to take a look at the idea of eating mealworms. It is not something we normally think of when we look for protein sources. The storyteller goes into facts about where we get our food and how that is not healthy for us or the environment. Visual storytelling engages our mind and makes us think that we may convert to mealworm eaters after all.

13. PRODUCT FOR WOMEN MADE BY WOMEN

More and more female heroes show up on the entrepreneur scene and looking to fund their projects on Kickstarter and Indiegogo. Women will benefit more from a product made especially for them and not those stereotyped for women. Women understand what they want, expect and need, so these kinds of products need adequate funding.  The products made by women are to solve some sort of problem that only women (and few men) understand

Product: HiLashes – Magnetic Lashes, Reinvented

Video: Great example of the Kickstarter video for the beauty brand. This 1min 55sec video starts by comparing the old way of applying eyelashes which are obsolete and don’t give the best result. It then introduces the ultramodern magnetic technology eyelashes. There is also an eyelash applicator which makes it easier to apply with just one click. This product is suitable for everyday wear and is waterproof. The video ended by stating that it does no harm whatsoever to your original eyelashes.

These are a few of the best favorite Kickstarter videos of 2018. They all address some critical issues, and they deserve our financial support. A Kickstarter campaign is not successful because we think it is a great idea or product. Marketing it the right way, including creating an enticing video, will ensure that the promotion is a success. These videos are the best examples of Kickstarter campaigns in 2018. You can get inspired and apply them to your next product or idea. 

So How much does Kickstarter video cost?

You need a trustworthy and invigorating video to enhance your crowdfunding campaign for a Kickstarter project. Most Kickstarters soon learn that this is not so easy to achieve. Thankfully since we can now find video experts to help us, with the use of AD.JUST Video Production, you have less to worry about.

Now comes the issue of price. Would it cost $500, $2k, or $10k? You can answer this only after you have considered the aim of the video. Here are some points to help you determine the cost of Kickstarter video production:

1.  Do-it-yourself Kickstarter video production

Cost: Around $2,000

You can always choose the Do-It-Yourself options of Kickstarter video production and execute most part of the project. You may choose to write the video script, direct it and manage the production on your own. In doing this, you get to cut your costs of video production because you execute based on the funds available.

For instance, you may pay an entry-level videographer as low as $500 for a half-day job and get a very simple video editing done for about $300. In the end, you should have been able to produce an average-quality video. Of course, the sound may not be so clear nor the image sharp enough, even the pacing may have some irregularities. But if the script is catchy enough and the characters are captivating, you may be left off the hook.2. A basic good quality Kickstarter video

2. A basic good quality Kickstarter video

Cost: $3,000 – $5,000

To present your business idea in the best light you will have to hire more professional video production who can deliver full circle video production services necessary for a successful crowdfunding video. That will include idea and scriptwriting, 2-3 person film crew for sound and video recording. It can also include voice-over recording and good quality post-production services but without any composing or sophisticated animation.

It will cost you between $1-2k a day to acquire the film crew with quality equipment for a more professional look, and at least $700 for a seasoned editor. The video should be precise but quality, containing mostly an interview of the founder of the Kickstarter project and some film roll about your product or your facility.

You would concentrate on the story and do less of pre-production work (very few talents and locations), focusing more on the story of your concept, your passion your presentation skills.

3. Are you ready to amuse people with your Kickstarter video?

Cost: $5,000 – $10,000

When you rise your Kickstarter video budget above $5,000 you can include the service of the scriptwriter to get brilliant ideas to show your Kickstarter project in an emotional way: funny, romantic, futuristic, etc.

You will be also able to hire some talents and extras. They will demonstrate how your product works in each day’s situations and how it makes the world better. The main difference is that you can make visually appealing commercial parts to demonstrate your product in real life. And your future customers can see the diversity of situations in your product works. That budget also allows you to book some more locations like residential houses, offices or conference rooms, depending on your product specifics.

4. Your Kickstarter Video to go Viral?

Cost: $8,000-12,000

What you will get within that budget: greater script, more actors, voiceover, range of locations, and custom soundtracks. This budget will allow you:

•    Hire a director. The director is like an insurance policy that your script will not deviate from what you intended

•    Hire more professionals. Sound experts, gaffers, motion graphics, all of this will help to give you a quality video

•    Use equipment of higher quality. You could rent equipment like the RED Epic camera that goes for $2k a week (this is just a camera! Other features like sound, steady cam and lights must be added)

•     Pay actors. With a seasoned director, you may not have to worry about how much to pay actors because they will be able to help you fix the cost and do the cast.

•    Pay for good locations. It’s easy to determine which videos cost more because of the range of interesting locations used to shoot such videos.

•    Customized soundtrack. Simply contact a musician to do a soundtrack (up to $500) that will rhyme with the pacing of your video. This adds lots of value to the Kickstarter video.

5. Best Quality Kickstarter Video

Cost: $15,000 – $30,000

When does it occur to you that you might be spending more than necessary on your video? This totally depends on you and what you want to achieve. Let me help you here. Most expensive studios will only handle projects that hit the $30k mark. Quite frankly, at such an amount your video quality would be out of the ordinary when it comes to originality, casting, filming, and graphics.

So what differs? The concept is completely original, the production is the ultimate quality. Such a video would be perfect for successful Kickstarters after they have gained experience and they have an existing product with good publicity, but not for beginner projects.  It would be unwise for such to spend so much on a Kickstarter video at their entry stage.

How to pick a budget for your Kickstarter video?

Considering the extent of work to be done is crucial to your budgeting to avoid any impromptu costs. Are you just aiming for a video of you doing your thing in front of the camera? If your answer is yes, then forget about spending too much and get some good Do-It-Yourself guides to help you. If however you want to go all out, to create a great concept, with high-quality stuff like sound, images or to portray your complex storyline, you would need good budgeting. Our professional recommendation is to have something between $5,000 to $8,000 for a great look. That will also include an eye-catching concept and some talents and locations to show the usage of your invention in real-life situations.
