THE COLLABORATION

The duo filmmakers met when Mike posted a listing on Craigslist looking for fellow filmmakers in the Daytona area. The first meeting brought nine folks out to discuss the possibilities of a project. With each weekly meeting the numbers dwindled until Mike and Joops forged ahead creating their company and adding other key members to their crew; Nicole Long, Tony Ionno, Eric Freudenthal and Christopher Fragale. The team set out with enthusiasm to plan and produce their first project together and have never looked back. 386 Films now works out of their production office and studio in Port Orange, Florida.
