Pile of Bones - Successful Crowdfunding for the Performing Arts
Stephanie Lake is a multi award-winning Australian choreographer, dancer and director of Stephanie Lake Company. She has used Pozible as a way to raise part of the funds needed towards two of her works so far.
Double Blind: The First Campaign
In 2015 Stephanie successfully crowdfunded her first work as an independent dance company under the Stephanie Lake Company banner. Her Pozible campaign for a contemporary dance called Double Blind was a huge success with 113 supporters pledging to make the production of Double Blind a reality.
"Stamped with her recognisable choreographic signature: moments of humour woven with the grotesque, work that is unapologetically driven by and constructed around the movement of the human body, and movement that is complex, virtuosic and rigorously articulated."
Jordan Beth Vincent, The Age (on Double Blind).
Pile of Bones: The followup campaign
Smiling Mind does not solely cater to students, either. The team has an app for people of all ages to use, and also runs workshops for offices and groups across the country.
