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.
