MATRIX FILM FEST

Did you study in any film school or private course? Or did you learn to make movies on your own?

I have been an actor since I was a child, with a long career in television, theater and cinema. additionally I have a degree in communication sciences. Throughout my career I trained with great directors and filmmakers.

 

How many years have you been making movies and how did you get started in movies?

I have been working in the world of cinema since I was a child, surrounded by great actors, producers and directors from my country.

 

One of the problems that we filmmakers have is that we are not like the actors or the technical team, who work with many different productions and can learn different ways of doing things. Normally we only attend our own shoots. Have you had the opportunity to assist in the shooting of other people or are you usually only in your own shoots? If yes, is there anything that caught your attention?

I have had the opportunity to work as an actor, production assistant, directing actors. so I not only concentrate on my shots but also on the production in general and the direction of actors, since I consider the most sensitive part of a film
