- Cinema is one of the youngest arts that we can enjoy, a little over a century; but it quickly became the most popular of all. The history of cinema is, in part, the history of the most recent culture all over the world. Knowing its history is understanding the evolution of the art that has marked almost all of today's culture and entertainment: comics, television, video games, virtual reality... Cinema spread like an epidemic worldwide, and films reflecting different realities and cultures quickly began to appear. With the beginnings and development of silent cinema, a new language was created and consolidated, whose objective is to convey ideas and create emotions. The images that traveled the world not only showed unusual places and moving actions; the life that unfolded on the early screens began to install in the viewer's mind a new way of understanding fiction and reality.
- The history of cinema is the history of a set of technological innovations aimed at impressing and captivating the viewer, always eager for new emotions where countless elements such as editing, music, script, photography, colors, shapes, etc., come together.
- FX Cinema takes the baton from Estudiodecine and its prestigious History of Cinema Course in 25 Films to design a new and exciting list of titles and thus take on the challenging task of compressing over a century of cinema into one year.
- As a committed film school, we know that for making movies, passion and technique are as important as the knowledge of the legacy that cinema itself has left us. If there is something recognized by today's film masters, it is the films that have influenced them, the directors who have impacted them, and how this influence is reflected in their films. This course will provide cinema enthusiasts with a demanding and thorough vision of the seventh art, always going much further than simple viewing. For students eager to create their own films, it will offer countless references, solutions, and will reveal new ways to capture their ideas in images. This is a unique and indispensable course.
- This edition will consist of fifty viewings and fifty analyses by a group of the best film critics and analysts in Barcelona: Quim Casas, Desirée de Fez, Ángel Sala, Màrius Rubio, Germán Barón, among others, all of whom have a long career as film educators and critics in the most recognized media.
- As filmmaker Mark Cousins says in his monumental and brilliant documentary "The Story of Film: An Odyssey" (2011); "..what really drives the film industry is not money, but innovation and passion.."
- Enjoy with us a journey through this passion.
