How to Create an Awesome Demo Video the Grumo Way
After creating several successful demo videos I have learned great techniques to produce awesome explanatory videos with very little budget.
I have also learned that most startups cannot afford to spend $3k to $10K to have a professional video produced.
This saddens me because every startup can tremendously benefit from having a great demo video explaining what they do.
So to help the startups of the world tell their stories in a unique and fun way I have produced a concise and easy to follow online videotutorial course that will help you learn everything I know to produce great videos like the ones you can see on this website.

Why a great demo video is super important for your company?
A great demo video helps the founders promote their startup and explain their product or services better than any text, images, website could ever do. A great demo video is the best most efficient way to tell your story so anyone can understand and take the time to listen to it.
A great demo video acts on your behalf as an elevator pitch for your company so you don't have to repeat your story over and over to customers and investors. Let the video tell your story so you can concentrate on building a great product.
I have the knowledge and experience to help startups tell their story. I have a passion for startups being one myself so I decided to share my knowledge to help you learn how to create a great demo video yourself.
Whether you are a founder that wants to take that boring screencast video to the next level or a video producer that wants to learn how to produce awesome animated videos for your clients, this video tutorial will ensure you learn everything there is to know to produce the most effective explanatory video possible for the least amount of money.
Everyone is using video to promote their startups, are you?
Well established companies such as Dropbox.com, 99designs.com, InDinero.com and even Woody Allen have completely removed all the clutter from their homepages and replaced it with huge video players showcasing their products and services.
Why are so many startups using video? because video works, but only if it is a well written and produced video and that is exactly what I will teach you if you take this super cool course 
What will you learn?

Student Testimonials
Here are some testimonials from happy students with links to the videos they created after taking my course:
"The Grumo course gave me the behind the scenes to the production of the video from start to finish. Which demystified all the misconceptions I had, of a huge budget- incredibly talented marketing geniuses needed to create a video such the once I've seen. So I got all the CONFIDENCE I needed to tackle the task, and on top of that all the TOOLS and METHODS necessary to do so with a winning formula"
Fabian Pallares - Collective Change (watch video)
"I really enjoyed the course and am very proud of the result! So Miguel you rock! Thanks"
Jonathan Surinx - Olumpo (watch video)
"The course was even more awesome than expected. While I thought the main thing I would get out of it was the technical stuff (and I did) what I REALLY got out of it was how to write a great script and storyboard, and how to add the LOVE. And the best part was that the course was so entertaining! I'm not sure whether you're a better producer, teacher or comedian. Either way, keep up the great work!"
Justin McLeod - Hinge (watch video)
"I'd recommend your course to anyone! it's good even for back-end developers zero experience design nor animation."
Pablo Albrecht - Belongins (watch video)
"I wouldn't even have TRIED this without your awesome course. You really inspired me and also made me feel like it was "possible".
Todd Rimes - Handpik (watch video)
"The most useful help I received from the Grumo course was:
- How to design a good script (statement of problem, solution, explanation... in the right proportions) with the 7 SUCCESS rules in mind. Really good stuff, and simple to apply. I was most impressed by the need to generate warm, fuzzy feelings and make people laugh. This is key.
- The After Effects tutorial was invaluable, I had no clue how to do this kind of animation before, that section of the course had many small tips to get started right away, rather than going through thick books about the software. The high-def videos for the rigging and animation were a good idea because viewed fullscreen, it looks almost like a live screen of the application."
Gabriel Ross - GR Sites (watch video)
"Miguel's course gave me very concrete technical advice on how to write the script, how to record the voiceover, how to look for talent and how to edit. Lastly, it gave me the confidence to think that I could write a script and create this project."
Seth Price - TurlyTag (watch video)

Good luck anyway to every body! Best, isketchyouridea.com
Just bought the online class. So freakin’ excited. I love your work. We are launching a website to gauge customer interest in 3 weeks at an IT conference. This is going to totally help. (Lets just hope I can get it built by then!)
Thanks a lot David! I hope you learn a lot and can create an awesome video!
Hey, Miguel:
Thank you so much for the course! I’ve learned more in the last three weeks about animation and video than I have in all my previous career in multimedia — thanks to you! I am launching my own startup with my own money, so I couldn’t afford to hire you; but I *could* afford your awesome course. Here is the result: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Li1j23oYMfM
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I couldn’t have done it without you!

Awesome Todd, I loved the humor!
I am so happy you learned some useful stuff to produce your own demo video.
Thanks for sharing and for taking the Grumo course!
Hi, your videos are greatm i was wondering, what kinf of programs do you use in order to use your videos?
Hi Dani, we use Illustrator to create the graphics, After Effects to do the animation, and Final Cut to bring the animation, voiceover, and music together. We cover all of them in this animation course.
Cheers!
