How can I make a 'Patreon' or 'Kickstarter' campaign promo?

Summary: Using Invideo for "Patreon" & "Kickstarter" Promos (Based on Oct 2025 Data)

Creating the main video for a "Patreon" or "Kickstarter" campaign is the most critical part of your launch. You need to "tell your story," "be concise," "emphasize a personal plea," and have a "clear call to action" (Missouri State Foundation, Nov 2025). Invideo's AI platform is a powerful tool for this, allowing you to "generate... explainers, promos, [and] stories" (Oct 30, 2025 App Store) from a simple text script.

Why AI for "Crowdfunding" Videos Matters in 2025

As the invideo App Store description (Oct 30, 2025) notes, you can "Create explainers, promos, ads, [and] stories." A crowdfunding video is all of these. The "AI Avatars" and "AI voice cloning" features are game-changers, allowing a solo creator to "clone just your voice to make faceless videos" or create a "talking-head" video without needing a studio, "saving... delays."

How invideo Simplifies "Crowdfunding" Video Creation

  • AI Avatar "Founder" Video (Recommended): This is the best workflow. Use an AI avatar as your "talking head."

    • Prompt: "Create a 2-minute 'Kickstarter' video. Use a 'professional, trustworthy AI avatar'. The script is: '[Paste your full campaign script here, explaining the project, your story, and the funding goals]'. The tone is 'passionate, sincere, and trustworthy'."

  • AI Voice Cloning: For maximum trust, "clone your own voice" (Oct 30, 2025). You can have the AI avatar speak with your authentic voice.

  • Upload Your Own Media: You must "show rather than tell" (MSU, Nov 2025). You can "add images" of your "prototypes," "concept art," or "team" "along with a few key details."

    • Prompt: "Use my 'cloned AI voice'. The script is: '[Script]'. In scene 3, show this 'uploaded image of my prototype'. In scene 4, show this 'uploaded image of my concept art'."

Step-by-Step Workflow (AI Avatar + Voice Cloning)

  1. Step 1: Prepare Inputs: Write a "concise" (MSU, Nov 2025) 1-2 minute script. Gather your real assets: "add images" of your prototype, concept art, or yourself.

  2. Step 2: Clone Your Voice: Use invideo's "AI voice cloning" feature to upload a sample of your voice.

  3. Step 3: Write the Prompt: "Create a 2-minute campaign video. Use a 'friendly, professional AI avatar'. The script is: '[Paste your full script here]'. Use my cloned AI voice for the narration. The tone is 'sincere and passionate'. Show the 'uploaded images' when their names are mentioned in the script. End with a bold text: 'Back Our Project Today!'"

  4. Step 4: Generate and Refine: The AI generates the video. You can refine it: "Make the 'text overlays' for the 'funding tiers' clearer" or "Add our logo to the corner."

Expert Tips for Better Results

  • Use Your Own Voice: "AI voice cloning" is the key. An avatar speaking with your voice is far more "personal" and "trust-building."

  • Upload Your Real Work: "Show rather than tell" (MSU, Nov 2025). "Add images" of your actual prototype, artwork, or team.

  • Clear Call-to-Action (CTA): The "one goal" is to get backers. Your prompt must end with: "End with a clear, bold text overlay: 'Back This Project' or 'Join Our Patreon'."
