New patreon welcome guide
Welcome to the kcc patreon!
First things first
Join the newsletter and discord
The easiest way to stay up-to-date with the happenings at KCC is to join our crew Patreon and newsletter. All Patreons get access to the crew lounge channels on Discord, and access to all project channels. Whenever I put a new Patreon post out, I notify the crew via the news channels there.
Additionally, you can join the newsletter to get a digest whenever there are big show releases or updates at KCC. I usually recommend everyone follow us on a variety of channels as well - whenever I post an update, it is shared to Youtube, Twitter (X), Facebook, Instagram and Tiktok by default.
Submitting your cameo
Stand with us!
Welcome, new Patreons! Vincent here - I made a this page as a quickstart guide to get up-to-date with all their Patreon perks and options.
The most important Patreon perk is the Cameo Programme, available for Cameo Cat Patreons and above. To join our shows with a cameo, do the following:
- Wait for a 'Cameo Call' Patreon post. Here is an example of such a post. These posts usually feature a sketch of the art being made, with blank faces. By responding to these Patreon posts, you can declare your intentions to join that particular frame.
- Send me a DM or email with your reference pictures. A wide variety of angles and expressions is best, but a single image of your features will do as well.
References can be sent to me via Discord, Patreon or at vincent@kaisercatcinema.com .
Joining the outro credits
Patreon credits are made custom for each video. To ensure your name appears in your favorite project, look for the 'Credits call' Patreon post a week or two before the video release. Here is an example of such a post.
In this Patreon post, you can reply to pin your name to the top of the board for that video, and choose your faction. These factions will always be themed to the video itself. For example, the documentary about the Ottoman Empire has Patreons pick between Arab revolutionaries, Ottoman loyalists, or various Balkan factions.
Even if you do not respond, your name will still appear in the outro credits by default. The default list consists of a randomised scroll of all Patreons in no particular order.
Joining a regiment
Most often, I reach out to Patreons directly if we have a group scene to ask if they are interested in a regiment name. You are free to suggest your own lore as well! Usually people add this in their patreon comment, so we can discuss all the options for each frame separately.
patreon postcards
Patreons of Cameo Cat tier and above will receive a code for a free postcard along with their backer rewards. Check your DM's on Patreon for your code!
Each code works once (I occasionally refresh them for veteran Patreons), so you are free to use it right away, or wait until there is a postcard available that you put a cameo on.
Patreon-exclusive poster
Suggesting Patreon-Exclusive posters is a perk for all Syndicat Tier and above Patreons. Keep an eye on the Patreon posts - when it is time to gather ideas, I will make a tier-exclusive post to get the vote started.
Special thanks to Alex LP and The Bittersteel, who won the Patreon poster votes in 2024 and '23 respectively!
Top backer rewards
A river to their people! If you joined the top Patreon tiers, take a look at your DM's - I will list the long, long list of your perks there 😉
As mentioned before, your perks include:
- Top Credits listing on all videos
- Producer listing on all project intros
- Exclusive free Merchandise
- Yearly Patreon Poster
For your backer reward kit, make sure to send me your address, preferred backer kit theme, and generally reach out on all platforms!
