Making Patreon your creative business hub | Noclip | #22

07/02/23 • 25 min

Danny O’Dwyer is the founder of Noclip, which makes video game documentaries available for everyone to watch, funded by a community of members on Patreon. In 2016, Danny pivoted from a career in gaming journalism to making his own documentaries, free from the influence of advertising and sponsored content. Noclip has gone on to build a team and release dozens of documentaries on YouTube, with Patreon members getting additional bonus content and involvement in the production process.

Noclip has been one of the creators with early access to new Patreon features allowing them to bring more of their audience into membership without needing to pledge on a paid tier. Danny has been experimenting with what member-only content to share with these free members, and having compelling reasons to upgrade.

The final episodes of Backstage with Patreon, coming this week

We’re wrapping up Backstage with Patreon, and wanted to share the news. We’ll have four more full length episodes in the feed, which will release on a daily schedule to close out the show.

I’m ending my time at Patreon leading the Creator Success team but hopefully not the end of getting to work with creators and telling company stories. You can find me on Twitter @BrianPodcasting, LinkedIn under brikell, and email at [email protected]
