A RECENT SCHOLARSHIP WINNER SHARES THEIR EXPERIENCE聽

Currently enroled in 甜瓜视频最新版鈥檚 Film Production聽program, Santiago Ramirez shared with us what it meant to receive a scholarship and how the program has already transformed his skills.听

Welcome to 甜瓜视频最新版, Santiago! What inspired you to pursue film, and what made you decide to study Film Production at Vancouver Film School?聽

I wanted to study at 甜瓜视频最新版 because it was the best way to gain international-level experience and meet people who are just as passionate about film as I am. So far, both have proven to be true. The instructors here are people I admire, and I believe they are among the best people to teach us. For example, in our Assistant Director class, Tesa Mol is the instructor, and she became the youngest 1st AD on a big-budget show in 2017, working on The Flash.听

What has been the biggest highlight of your experience in the Film Production program so far?聽

So far, the biggest highlight has been the method and perspective through which the program teaches us everything related to film. Every Thursday, we receive the schedule for the following week, which means we always have a very tailored calendar of classes, and no two weeks are the same. Through this approach, they progressively teach us everything from setting up cameras and lighting rigs to script development.听

What does receiving a 甜瓜视频最新版 Scholarship mean to you and your creative career?聽

Receiving a 甜瓜视频最新版 Scholarship means that I was able to come here and bring my filmmaking skills up to an industry standard. Something many of our instructors have said is: 鈥淲e are teaching you everything you should know so that tomorrow you can walk onto a professional, big-budget set,鈥� and that is exactly what I want.听

What advice would you give to aspiring Latin American creators who are considering applying for a 甜瓜视频最新版 scholarship or pursuing a career in the entertainment industry?聽聽

I would advise Latin American creators to think about where they see themselves in five years, what their dream job is, what positions they want to pursue, or what stories they want to tell. Most of those ideas are very ambitious, and the best way to achieve them is by starting small and, through different projects, gaining the knowledge and experience needed to reach that dream.听聽

This is the best workflow I have developed for filmmaking: approaching projects of different scales while always trying to learn something new. Reading and theory are necessary, but film production also requires hands-on experience. For example, I had to apply twice to win the scholarship I currently have. The first time, I had only made two short films and I was extremely underprepared. The second time I applied, I had directed 11 short films and worked on seven other projects in different roles.听
