These workshops are designed for anyone who feels called to tell stories through film. They are practical, hands-on, and built around the real process of filmmaking — not theory alone. Alexandre Ottoveggio brings over 30 years of experience as a filmmaker, actor, and director, sharing the lessons he learned working on international productions, independent cinema, and award-winning shorts.

Participants will discover how to take an idea and carry it all the way to the screen — developing a script, guiding performances, making creative choices on set, and shaping the story in the edit.

Discover how to direct a short film in just 24 hours.

Instead, it embraces simplicity, presence, and flow — turning constraints into creative opportunities. In one concentrated day, you are guided from the spark of an idea to the completed film, learning how to shape story, work with actors, and capture authentic images with clarity and ease.
