About Course

In this short film course you'll learn the basics you need to shoot your first short film, and I'll show you how we made some fifty short films. We'll go through the shorts one by one, and then you'll watch them again with my commentary, explaining the reason behind each shot and how we did it: how long it took, how many of us were on the crew, and so on. Learn how to shoot a short film and feel comfortable and confident doing it.

We'll analyse 50 short films, all of them shot in a single day, with a minimal crew of one to five people, in a rush, with no budget but with a lot of passion. If I could do this, imagine what you can do.
We'll look at short films, music videos and documentary projects: plenty of material so you can gain confidence before making your own.
I'll give you some tips on how I approach a shoot and what I do to keep things under control.   Welcome to a transformative journey into the world of filmmaking, where creativity and knowledge come together in our exclusive «Short Film Course». This isn't just a course: it's a one-of-a-kind experience designed for those who want to learn by watching complete examples, in a thorough and unique way.

Frequently asked questions

If you have a question that isn't here, write to me and I'll answer it myself.

Is it for beginners?

Not exactly. This course works best if you've already shot at least one short film (even on your phone) and you know the basics. If you're starting from zero, begin with «Haz tu cortometraje» (Make Your Short Film, 99 €) and move up afterwards.

How is it different from «Haz tu cortometraje» (Make Your Short Film)?

«Haz tu cortometraje» teaches you the complete method. «Anatomy of 50» is an analysis course: 50 of my own real short films, dissected sequence by sequence, with «why it was shot this way», «what went wrong» and «what I'd do differently today». It's the largest library of real case studies for short filmmakers in Spanish.

How much content is there?

162 lessons. Each short is analysed sequence by sequence, so you can go straight to the one closest to what you're shooting right now.

Do I get lifetime access?

Yes: one-time payment, lifetime access. Any shorts I add after your purchase are included at no extra cost.

Is there a refund policy?

14 days. If you find it's not for you, write to me and I'll refund your money. No questions asked. You can read the terms in the refund policy.

Is it useful for feature films?

It helps a lot with thinking in sequences, but if your focus is feature films, take a look at «Cómo hacer tu primer largometraje» (How to Make Your First Feature Film, 295 €). You can In this topic we introduce the short films shot in 2021.
