Seems that a crowd-funding campaign is preferable to offering 'customs'...? Perhaps they producer does not wish to do shoots proposed by others, but rather, only his own style (which I respect)...the vids (mess) seem to be high quality, though (haven't seen pictures of the models -- perhaps this might help 'jump start' the campaign).
Let's support this guy; he's only asking for a grand; if a hundred folks chipped in 10.00 each, that would cover it (content is offered 'free', which I suppose is the equivalent of offering 'perks' to donors)...
...one question I would have about offering free content, depending on how this is offered, is how one keeps track of folks who downloaded the videos or pics (this would be a good way of reaching out to your support base , that is, consumers of the product).

This guy could make a mint selling his photosets on here. His video skills need some work(I don't get how people still end up with vertical videos). I don't think he has any business or advertising sense at all. The only place I had seen the gofundme was on an image in his Flickr account. He didn't mention on his Youtube or social media accounts.
