The Wintersun project on Indiegogo is seeking funding to build a music studio, a long-time dream of the project's founder.

The studio will be a state-of-the-art facility where Wintersun can record and produce their music.

Wintersun is a Finnish power metal band known for their symphonic and folk-inspired sound.

The project's goal is to raise $150,000 to cover the costs of building and equipping the studio.

The band behind the Indiegogo campaign is called "Echo Wild". They're a 4-piece indie-rock band from Los Angeles.

The band members are all friends who met while attending music school. They share a passion for creating music that inspires and uplifts their listeners.

Launch

The Wintersun Indiegogo campaign was launched roughly 24 hours after a deal was made with Nuclear Blast, and it's already reached about 90% of its goal.

The campaign is for their third studio album The Forest Seasons, which is set to be released later this year.

The band's Facebook announcement welcomed fans to "change the future of Wintersun" and take the band to the next level through the crowdfunding campaign.

The campaign includes an eleven-minute video explaining the Wintersun Forest Package, which starts at €50 and doesn't even include a physical copy of the album.

The Forest Package is an epic deal that includes a lot of Wintersun content, including the new album The Forest Seasons.

The campaign will last only this month, ending on March 31st 2017.

Wintersun mastermind Jari Mäenpää initially considered a Kickstarter campaign but decided against it due to the record deal with Nuclear Blast.

Goals and Objectives

Setting clear goals and objectives is crucial for a successful Indiegogo campaign. This will help you stay focused and motivated throughout the process.

A well-defined goal should be specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time-bound (SMART). For instance, raising $10,000 in 30 days is a specific and measurable goal.

A good objective should align with your overall vision and mission. In the case of Indiegogo, it's to bring innovative products to life. You should also make sure your objective is achievable, given your resources and constraints.

A successful Indiegogo campaign requires a clear understanding of your target audience and their needs. You should identify your niche and tailor your campaign to appeal to that specific group.

By setting clear goals and objectives, you'll be able to create a compelling campaign that resonates with your audience and drives results.

Behind the Scenes

The Indiegogo Wintersun campaign was successfully funded in 2013, raising over $1.3 million from over 8,000 backers.

The campaign was created by a small team of developers who worked tirelessly to bring the game to life. They poured their hearts and souls into the project, and it showed in the final product.

The game's unique blend of sandbox exploration and action-RPG combat was a major selling point for backers. They were drawn in by the promise of a massive open world to explore and a complex combat system to master.

The team's dedication to community engagement was evident in the regular updates and behind-the-scenes content they shared with backers. This helped build a strong sense of ownership and enthusiasm among the community.
