A Hands-On Course for Beginners & Enthusiasts

With a background in advertising + filmmaking,
Mike Kilcoyne’s spent the last 5+ years

of his life working on ads with budgets of over $100,000+,
and production scales that followed suit.
(With all of the fancy camera-gear, huge crews,
long scripts and even longer hours on-set to boot.) 

 

But it all started with him and his iPhone,
on a warm summer day in Denver, woefully attempting
to market a fundraiser he was hosting a few weeks later. 

 

In this course, he’ll teach you how to strip out all of that malarkey
and tell simple stories that work for a fraction
of what it costs to scope out those huge productions.
