Stop rebuilding your crowdfunding campaign every time you make a film.
Most filmmakers lose what they learn after each campaign — what worked, who supported them, and how they built momentum — then start the next campaign from scratch.
Safety Takes helps you build your campaign system before you launch, execute during your campaign, and carry everything you learn into your next film.
Every campaign makes the next one stronger.
Build your system between films. Put it to work when you're ready to launch.
No credit card required.
Everything for your crowdfunding campaign in one workspace.
Your campaign plan, daily tasks, calendar, audience, outreach, messaging, and perks — all organized in one place and built to carry forward to your next film.

Safety Takes stays useful before, during, and after your campaign — helping you prepare, execute, learn, and carry that experience into your next film.
Build your audience before you need to ask for support.
Crowdfunding doesn't start when you launch your campaign. It starts with the relationships you build before you need them.
Safety Takes helps you keep track of the people who support your work, engage with your projects, and show interest in what you're making — so you're not trying to build an audience from scratch when it's time to crowdfund.
We used Safety Takes for our own crowdfunding campaign.
We didn't build Safety Takes as a theory. We built the system because we needed it, then used it ourselves to put it to the test.

We started with an $8,000 goal and raised $25,000.
We used Safety Takes to organize our audience, plan our outreach, build our campaign, and execute the strategy we'd built into the system.
A real campaign. A real test.
View the campaign →How It Works
Your campaigns improve every time you run one.
Your first campaign gives you more than a result. It gives you information you can use next time — what worked, what didn't, who supported you, which messages resonated, and what you'd do differently.

Stronger System
The goal isn't a 28-day campaign. It's a crowdfunding system you keep building on.
Long-Term Value
One campaign can become the foundation for your next one.
Your campaign doesn't have to disappear when it's over.
Keep what worked. Refine what didn't. Carry your audience, messaging, perks, and campaign system into your next film.
Every campaign gives you more to build on.
The Problem With Starting Over
Your campaign shouldn't live in five different places.
—Contacts in a spreadsheet.
—Messages in your DMs.
—Tasks in a calendar.
—Perks in a document.
—Lessons buried in your notes.
Safety Takes brings it together into one campaign system you can keep building on.
Daily Execution
Know what to do next.
Safety Takes organizes your campaign into daily tasks across pre-launch, launch, mid-campaign, and endgame, so you always know what to focus on next.

Know who is already part of your audience.
Your campaign ends. Your audience doesn't.
Keep track of who backed your work, who showed interest, who said "next time," and who consistently shows up for your films — so you know who is already part of your audience when it's time to launch again.
Every film can grow the audience for the next one.

Why It's Called Safety Takes
On a film set, a safety take is the extra take you shoot so you always have something reliable to come back to.
Safety Takes works the same way.
Every campaign gives you something reliable to come back to — your audience, your campaign system, and what you've learned.
Built by Filmmakers
We built Safety Takes because we kept running into the same problem: we'd finish a crowdfunding campaign with a ton of useful information, contacts, messages, and lessons — and then we'd start the next film and rebuild everything again.
We didn't need another place to store information.
We needed a system that remembered what we'd already learned and helped us put that knowledge to work on the next campaign.
So we built Safety Takes for ourselves.
Then we used it to run our own crowdfunding campaign. We started with an $8,000 goal and raised $25,000.
That campaign became the first real test of the system.
Safety Takes is the platform we wished we'd had from the beginning — and the system we continue to build from what we've learned.
Safety Takes provides organizational tools, templates, and educational resources for filmmakers. We do not guarantee crowdfunding success, funding outcomes, audience growth, sponsorship opportunities, or financial results.
