ESCAC / THE CONTEXT
ESCAC is one of Spain’s most renowned film schools.
​
Some of the alumni of the school such as J.A. Bayona (director of The Impossible, A Monster Calls, Penny Dreadful), Eduard Grau (Cinematographer of A Single Man, Arthur Newman, Suite Française), Bernat Vilaplana (Editor of Pan’s Labyrinth, Hellboy II), Oscar Faura (Cinematographer of The Imitation Game), among many others, have had a fundamental role in the evolution of the filmmaking industry in the recent years, and that impact has managed to make the brand ESCAC travel abroad through films of international outreach.
​
In 2014, ESCAC launched a New Master’s Degree in Filmmaking with the intention of furthering it’s goal of becoming the stepping stone between the academic world and the professional industry in Spain.
​
The Master’s Degree in Filmmaking started with the meticulous selection among it’s alumni of 6 directors, 6 screenwriters and 6 producers with the aim to create six teams and develop, shoot, and promote a First Feature Film.
​
The Girl From the Song is a film that has been created within this framework.
