More Patron exclusive content! But how?
Added 2019-09-04 12:03:49 +0000 UTCHello Patrons,
as we have a discussion on our Discord server at the moment and not all of you are on it, I'll give you a chance to comment on it here! :)
I've been thinking about it for a long time now, how to make Patron exclusive content.
There are two options for videos. None of them directly from Youtube.
There are three different ways of restricting viewers on Youtube. Public (for everyone), Not listed (for everyone to see on the channel page but not suggested on the Main page) and private (not visible to anyone except me).
Now Patreon only gives paid options.
Either Vimeo Patreon for a small fee per months. It let's me upload Videos to Patreon from Vimeo that only you guys could see.
Or Crowdcast, which would give me the option to live stream directly to Patreon for a huge amount of money per month. It's $34 for 10 hours of streaming per month up to $139 for 40 hours. As I only get a bit below $200 per month from Patreon, that would take a way a lot of money out of your pockets for these live streams, and I couldn't use the money for equipment anymore (very much needed). So that's not really an option in my opinion.
So, Vimeo would be an option for video, but it would cost $8 per months and give me only 5GB of Upload. A 10 minute video is about 1GB. So that would be A max of 10 5 minute videos for $8 per months. What you could expect, would be absolutely unedited (like live) video vlogs, where I'd tell you about bits, that did not make it into the Episode, how I make What about it!?, or what in general I think about.
Now my questions to you Patrons are:
Would you like this?
Would you deem it worthy of your money being spent on it?
Would you have other ideas for realizing more Patron exclusive content (as I very much want to do that anyway)?
Thank you for being a Patron and for reading!
Best regards,
Felix
