Building a Creative Career on Kickstarter: A Visit to Kingdom Death

Long before Adam Poots raised a record-breaking $12.4 million on Kickstarter, he raised… a lot less. Adam’s story shows the value in sticking with an idea and building it out over time - with the help and support of your Kickstarter fan base. We visited the Kingdom Death studio in Brooklyn to hear Adam’s thoughts on success and chasing a creative dream.

Awesome Adam took his passion and made it into a living. So rare.

Hi, Nick. Don't you think Poots looks exhausted on this?

Really nice insight into the KDM office, and nice to see some clips of Adam. Looking forward to several years of KDM output - hope that it's an amazing experience for us the backers as it is for the creators too !
