Hey Guys

We've just launched a brand new Kickstarter project for the worlds first backlit editing keyboard! We're so excited as we've been chosen as a Staff Pick too!

Would love to get any help and some feedback on the campaign, it's our first one so we're nervous!

Thanks
Mark

I backed it, as soon as I saw the project image.

Awesome! Did they reach out to you for the staff pick mention or did you reach out to them?

Also thanks so much Charles!

Awesome looking project! We also got staff picked! Very nice surprise! Good luck on your project. We are asking for the same amount, but in American currency.

Great video and awesome product! I was glad to hear that you can use this keyboard for regular computing as well and that it's not just limited as a device/keyboard solely for video editors. I REALLY want one of these keyboards when they hit the market!! Looks like you're on pace to smash your Kickstarter funding goal. Awesome job! We just tweeted your campaign btw from @crowdmapped to help spread the word - best of luck!!

Technically, I wouldn't call this world's first, as Optimus Maximus by Art. Lebedev Studio, having OLED displays in every key, should be able to do this and more and was available since 2007.

It is in quite a different price range, though. Your project is much more accessible.

Good luck with your project!

Congratulations! That's awesome!
I would love to hear any pointers and guidance anyone here may have as to how to expand our outreach, we have something really great, too. I would love to land some press coverage of our product and what we do.

I'm the lead singer of The Band Famous, a group of talented artists, musicians, and developers, and we've pioneered the Smart Album. We not only make the music, but we bring it to you.

Please take a look at our project, Help Build the Smart Album - by The Band Famous:
