Ready to Get it Done?

You don’t have to be great to get started…but you do have to get started to be great.

That quote isn’t just a favorite—it’s a practice.

So many actors and filmmakers are waiting for permission, money, the “right” moment, or someone to say you’re ready.
What I believe—and what I teach—is that momentum creates opportunity.

Wherever you are in the process, you don’t have to figure it out alone. I help you take what you already have and move it forward—clearly, intentionally, and with a real plan.

Work One - on - One with Me

If want personalized guidance tailored specifically to your project, one-on-one coaching is the most direct way to do that.

We can work together at any stage of filmmaking, including:

  • Developing your idea and getting it onto the page

  • Script feedback and creative direction

  • Pre-production planning, budgeting, and crewing

  • Stepping into production with confidence

  • Post-production strategy and next steps

  • Film festival strategy, marketing, and audience building

  • Pitching, distribution conversations, and career navigation

Each session is customized to where you are right now—with actionable steps so you leave knowing exactly what to do next.

Group Course: From Page to Production

If you’re looking for structure, community, and a clear roadmap, my group courses are designed to help you move from idea to execution.

These courses walk you through:

  • Turning an idea into a producible script

  • Planning your project with intention and efficiency

  • Using the tools you already have (including your iPhone)

  • Building momentum without waiting for permission

  • Finishing what you start

Group courses are perfect for creators who want accountability, encouragement, and practical tools—while learning alongside other filmmakers and storytellers doing the same thing.

I also teach workshops for film festivals, schools, and creative organizations—focusing on filmmaking that is accessible, actionable, and empowering.

Popular workshop topics include:

  • Filmmaking from idea to production

  • iPhone filmmaking as a creative and professional tool

  • Creating proof of concept work

  • Marketing your film while you’re making it

  • How to stop waiting and start creating now

These sessions are engaging, practical, and built to leave participants feeling capable—not overwhelmed.

What Creators are Saying

Proof that action changes everything

When we came to Keena, my producing partner and I had no idea where to begin. All we had was a script and a dream. Keena helped us come up with a succinct, actionable plan to make our first steps toward pre-production. Keena encouraged us to set our shoot dates in stone and held us accountable to do so. That accountability lead us to launch a fundraising campaign that made over 25k in 2 weeks! We were in production 2 months after our session with Keena! And now, our film has been admitted into several festivals and won US Best Short Film at SF Indie Short Festival and Best First Time Director (Female) at the Independent Shorts Awards

Keena taught me the information I needed, and gave me the guidance and direction I needed, and I did it! I felt a sense of accomplishment! She has a wealth of information, and she shows you how to get it done! Great course. I'm inspired.

Shaun - Actor (Page to Production Student)

I might venture to say the Now, Go Get it Done workshop was life changing. I haven’t ascribed to life coaching, but the meticulous, tactical, and expert way Keena Ferguson guides the class truly produced the result I had hoped for. I think and analyze quite a bit, but this mantra and action-designed course sequence pushed me to Now, Go Get it Done! It’s true: I’m a believer. I can’t wait for you to see the short film I created: Push. If you want the support and push to pull what’s out if your mind onto the page and screen, this is the workshop for you. Now, Go Get it Done!

Rich - Actress/Writer (Page to Production student)

I really enjoyed this class! It pushed me to believe in my ideas and create! I have a clear plan and next steps to bring my film and future films to life!

Brooklynn Morgan - Actor (Page to Production Student)

Thank you for the INCREDIBLE lessons I took away from our time with you. Thank you for the inspiration and for the kick in the butt. My writing/producing partner and I are already in action as of THAT afternoon on two new ideas!

Heather - Actor/Narrator/Writer

Keena was amazing to talk to. She is so approachable and really takes the time to understand where you are coming from before offering solutions. We chatted about different struggles that I have been facing for a long time. Because she really understood my problems, she was able to offer me some really specific, creative solutions and different approaches that I could try next. It was so helpful to bounce ideas off someone who has been where I am and knows what it is like. She's awesome
