New Patreon Goals, Tiers, and Rewards (Patreon)

So today, I would like to announce several new additions to the Patreon. Please note that nothing at the current tiers will be removed, but rather enhanced. But first, let's talk about some of the new tiers.

New Tiers

I added a $15 tier due to numerous requests since that's the cost of a magazine subscription or a subscription to World of Warcraft. Not a lot to comment on this tier. Just a longer time frame to work with for animations and one additional poster request. Here's an official list of perks at this tier.

• 1x ~25s animation request per month
• 3x 4KHD poster requests per month
• $5 Tier rewards

The $100 tier I added since I see a lot of other creators on Patreondo this. In addition to up to 1 minute animation, unlimited poster requests, and the ability to see animations immediately when they're done, this tier can request for one private SFM or After Effects lesson per month. I should state that I've been using SFM and After Effects for two and a half years at the time of this post. But, I will do my best to help you guys out as much as possible! Like the $15 tier, here is the official list of perks at this tier.

• 1x ~60s animation requests per month
• Unlimited 8KHD poster requests per month
• Monthly private SFM and After Effects lesson
• $5 Tier rewards

Now I'm going to talk about the new stuff I added to the current tiers.

New To Every Tier

Lately, I've been thinking of how to configure each Patreon reward to enhance a Patrons' experience when I'm livestreaming. Originally, I wanted each Patron to have access to custom sound effects, but the current moderator bot that I use is proving to be difficult for me to implement this. To make up for this, each Patron will receive a monthly allowance of Notice Me Points (NMP), which are points I used during my Twitch livestreams. Here's the number of NMP per month for each tier.

• $1 Tier: 100 NMP per month
• $5 Tier: 500 NMP per month
• $10 Tier: 1000 NMP per month
• $15 Tier: 1500 NMP per month
• $50 Tier: 5000 NMP per month
• $100 Tier: 10000 NMP per month

I will start implementing this system March 18th. I want to get all of the Twitch usernames here so I can add them to the allowance command I'm making for the bot program I'm using. Please post your Twitch username in the comment section if you want to be added to this system. Finally, I'm going to talk about the new $250 goal as well as the $375 goal I added.

New Goals

One of the most common suggestions I get for my Youtube channel is to produce longer content. Though the game reviews helped the channel grow a little bit and created some of the fanbase's memes, I realize now that I need to produce longer videos. By hitting this $250 goal, I will start to make opinion videos in which I discuss a particular topic in anime and video gaming. These topics could be as simple as "Top 5 Anime of the Season," to something more detailed like "Why Vegeta is a Better Dad than Goku." However, once we reach this goal, I will focus on developing a 3 month backlog of opinion videos before releasing them to the main channel. 

This one is a fairly straight forward goal, but one of the utmost importance. To help this channel grow, I need some advice from people in the anime/video gaming niche. Luckily, I found a person that will be willing to help me with my Youtube channel, provided that they get some sort of month fee for their hard work.

A Possible Change To Handling Of  Requests In The Future

The final thing I want to mention is that I strongly believe that more and more people are going to support me on Patreon. While I won't change how many animations or posters each Patron can request from me, there is a possibility I will change HOW they request these things from me. If I start to feel overwhelmed by the number of poster or animation requests I get per month, I will operate in a Que based system using Trello. I won't talk about it in depth at the moment, since currently I do not feel stressed out handling these requests, but it's something I want to let you guys know.

And that's basically it! Thank you guys for reading and I hope you have a wonderful day or night! See ya.
