Introduction
In Lourdes, the magic of cinema is no longer limited to the screen. Thanks to an initiative led by Diego De la Fuintes Photographe, the cinema workshops offered for the CCAS transform each participant into a true creator of emotions. These immersive experiences combine artistic rigor, storytelling, and exploration of new forms of expression, all in a privileged setting.
Diving into the Art of Short Film: the Signature of Diego De la Fuintes
Far from standardized workshops, Diego De la Fuintes imagines workshops where every gesture matters, and every story becomes an opportunity to reveal an emotional truth. Inspired by his experience in directing short and feature films, these workshops guide participants from writing to staging, all the way to editing.
Participants work in small groups, fostering exchange and the discovery of various roles (screenwriter, actor, cameraman). By relying on high-end professional equipment, the technical handling allows everyone to achieve a visual result close to the short film productions presented at regional festivals, according to the quality standards promoted by CNC – National Center for Cinema.
