"Finding Luc at the time that I did was one of the best things that's happened for my filmmaking career.
He was able to assess exactly where I was in my journey and guide me to exactly where I needed to be."
Taylor Bradberry, Documentary Filmmaker
Learn from someone who's been where you want to go.
We all need help along the way, but in the age of internet overload, it's hard to find personalized advice based on what you want to achieve. This isn't generic content or an online video course, this is a custom roadmap created just for you.
Through a combination of 1:1 video calls, targeted feedback sessions, custom exercises and online correspondence, we'll work together to make progress on your unique filmmaking goals.
Learn the skills and methods I used to shoot for some of the biggest media outlets in the world including:
"By applying the filmmaking and cinematography knowledge I learned from Luc, in the last year I've opened my own production office, booked multiple retainer clients and a $10,000+ contract, and even had my work published in National Geographic.
It was hard work, but I can't believe what's happened to my film career!"
Duy Le, Filmmaker
Not feeling film school? Long-term mentorship helps with:
⏳ Accountability
Deadlines are critical to producing at a high level, and sometimes the easiest person to ignore as a creative is yourself. By setting ambitious yet achievable deadlines, we'll make sure the work actually gets done.
📢 Personalized Feedback
Feedback has a compounding effect, the real growth often comes based on multiple rounds of notes and adjustments.
💻 Project Reviews
Through multiple rounds of edits and revisions, we'll tighten up your film or work in progress until it's the best version of itself.
📆 Long-term planning
What they don't teach you in film school is how to plan for a long-term future as a filmmaker. Make smart moves now and save years.
👔 Professional Development
There are lots of shortcuts to speed up your development as a filmmaker, but only if you know what you're looking for.
How it works:
👋 We'll start with a free 30 minute discovery call to establish what your goals and timeline are, and to discuss how I can help. If it feels like a good fit, we'll set up a timeline and start scheduling calls.
☎️ Next we'll book a series of monthly 60 minute 1:1 calls. These will be our deep dive sessions where anything is open for discussion. From edit reviews to networking advice to pitch deck revisions. Get answers to your most pressing questions.
📝 Between calls you'll get to work on custom assignments and special projects. These could include anything from refining your edit to drafting fundraising proposals, or even exporting a finished film. No two mentorships are the same and the targets we set will be based on your goals.
🔎 Every quarter we'll do a major review session. These are longer sessions every three months meant for more focused work, like reviewing an edit, proofing a project proposal, or polishing a rough cut.
📩 We'll be checking in weekly via email to hold you accountable and to answer any questions or challenges that come up.
👀 As we get closer to the end we'll set up a deadline for your final milestone review. Whatever your goal was, we want to make sure we've made significant progress towards hitting it. Then we'll create a solid plan for your future after the mentorship so you have a road map for success.
🏆 When we wrap you'll receive a certificate of completion you can include on your filmmaking CV.

"Luc's guidance provided me with a strong foundation, time-tested systems, and the confidence to not only start, but to stick with it.
Luc can’t make it easy, but if you're committed and you really want to give this thing a shot, then you won't find a more genuine and supportive mentor than Luc."
Austin Meyer, Filmmaker and National Geographic Explorer
Is mentorship right for you?
The program is meant for committed filmmakers of any level who are ready to take their development seriously and push their careers to the next level.
There is no fixed curriculum, but mentorship could be right for you if:
✅ You're early in your career and obsessed with the idea of becoming a documentary filmmaker, but you don't know where to start
✅ You're ready to make your first major project, maybe even a feature, but you're looking for guidance and accountability
✅ You've always had a passion for cameras and shooting, but you want to level up your skills to start telling powerful stories
✅ You're already an experienced filmmaker, but you're struggling to break through to the next level of the industry. Your projects are not having the impact you want and your professional network isn't growing
✅ You're interested in leveraging your filmmaking skills to grow a YouTube channel and build a personal brand
✅ You need a set of experienced eyes polishing your film and pitching it to production companies or submitting it to film festivals
Mentorship is not for you if:
⛔️ You're looking for a secret or easy path to success, because it doesn't exist. Mentorship can greatly accelerate your creative and professional development, but it only works if you're willing to do the work. You get back what you put into a program like this and if you're not fully committed, you're not ready for serious mentorship
⛔️ You don't have basic camera skills. This mentorship is beginner friendly, but it's not the right venue to learn how a camera works
⛔️ You're not willing to take action. I can give you the benefits of my decade+ of experience, but I can't force you get out there and do the work. I can't help you if you're not producing

Can I get a refund if I want to stop?
I get it, circumstances change. That's why the program will be billed quarterly (~90 day segments). If at any point you need to withdraw, you will not be charged for any remaining quarters.
After the first full video session of a new quarter, however, the payment for that quarter will be considered final with no refunds.
Why do I have to apply?
A program like this only works if you're fully committed, and so before we go ahead with mentorship a 30 minute application call will be required. During this call we'll discuss your goals and timelines to make sure it's the right fit for us both.
Can I pay in instalments?
Yes! While you're free to pay in full if you prefer, the default schedule is divided into quarterly instalments. If you need to break down the instalments even further into monthly payments, just email me at [email protected] and we can make it happen. For the 3 month program there will only be one payment.
Are the 1:1 call dates flexible?
Absolutely. I'm a working filmmaker and cinematographer, and I'm going to assume you'll want to be out there shooting too! While we'll make sure we stick to the overall timeline of the program, there will be a lot of flexibility when it comes to scheduling.
Is this right for me if I have zero experience?
While this is a program open to filmmakers of all experience levels, at least basic familiarity with cameras and audio gear is required. If you've never picked up a camera before, there are better (and cheaper) ways to learn than through 1:1 mentorship!
What if I can't afford this right now?
A program like this is a massive investment in your filmmaking career. And to be honest, it's not for everyone. If enrolling in this program means you either have to go into debt or if it will prevent you from being financially able to produce your own work, then please do not apply.
This program is meant for dedicated filmmakers who are looking for a faster paced and more DIY alternative to film school, not as a budget online course.
Is there a limit to enrolment?
Yes, definitely. A program like this requires a significant investment of time from both of us, and that means spaces will be strictly limited to around 3-5 filmmakers at a given time.
