Founders Film Day by Awesomic
Most founders know launch video is their strongest moat. They also know that setting up lights, testing mics, and finding a professional crew is a massive time-sink that usually gets pushed to "next quarter."
AI can’t capture your authority (yet). We can.
Awesomic is hosting 10 YC Founders for a high-intensity filming session at StartupHQ. This isn't a workshop. It’s a professional production sprint. You show up, we coach you through your story, and you walk out with a studio-quality video ready for your deck, site, or socials.
The result: 30 minutes on set. Raw footage delivered the next day.
Watch what Maxime and Taieb, Co-founders at Vera Health (YC S24), captured in 30 minutes on a Monday evening. That's what's possible.
How it works
Request a spot: Reserve on Lu.ma.
Pick your slot: You’ll receive a link to select a recording time (4 pm – 9pm).
Show up & shoot: Arrive 15 minutes earlier. Our director will coach you through your story to find your best performance.
Instant delivery: Receive your raw footage via your private Awesomic profile the same day.
Optional edit: Need it polished? Activate an Awesomic subscription (Special YC deal included).
What to prepare
We handle the technicals, you bring the story. Use this framework to prep:
The hook: "Hi, I’m [Name], founder of [Company]. We're building [one-liner] for [who] to solve [core problem].”
The problem: What keeps your users up at night?
The solution: How you fix it (and why you’re the only one who can).
The ask: One clear next step (Join waitlist, Book a demo, DM me).
What’s on set?
We provide a full-scale professional environment:
Director/Producer to sharpen your delivery
Camera Operator (4K Cinema Setup)
Soft LED Studio Lighting
Professional Lav Mics
What we bring
Director/producer, camera operator, soft LED lighting, and lav mics. You show up and tell your story. We handle everything else.

Target length: We aim for a punchy 2-minute final cut, but record longer to get your best take
