VECINOS, MEXICO
Background and History of the School
The
objective of the Centro de Capacitación Cinematográfica (CCC)
is to train tomorrow's high-level filmmakers, providing them with a deep knowledge
of technical and artistic aspects of cinema, production, sound, edition, scriptwriting
and directing, within the framework of an integral conception of the cinema
language. The CCC is a cinema school, an academic and cultural center that connects
cinema -or the moving image- with other ways of artistic expression. From its
foundation in 1975, the CCC has been striving to develop its own approach to
cinema and to provide a complete aesthetic proposal, which promotes a cinema
style that is far from rigid thinking and expression patterns.
Today,
the CCC has more than 20 years of experience in the training of young directors
through its general course of cinema studies and its four-year education cycle.
The center is at the level of the best cinema schools in the world. Its prestige
and presence in the cinema circles is reflected in the numerous national and
international events its productions are invited to compete in.
