    The Master's Degree in Fiction Series Direction and Production presents a syllabus that brings together all aspects of the direction and production of fiction series, from the analysis and development of scripts to the editing and post-production of recorded material, technical planning, working with actors, the adaptation of sets, recording techniques, the work of crew members and the use of soundtracks.

    Counting as a partner with the innovative production company of Álex de la Iglesia and Carolina Bang, creators of series such as 30 Monedas or Pollos sin cabeza, or films such as Venus or La Piedad, Pokeepsie Films offers academic internships to students in productions or fiction series, or in related production companies, in projects where the professional skills of the Master can be developed, which promotes the employability and practicality of the training.

    Television series are the most consumed television entertainment product in recent years. Spain has become the European country of reference for these productions. Series such as La Casa de papel, Veneno, Élite, Euphoria, Valeria, Juego de Tronos, Desaparecidos, El Ministerio del Tiempo, Mad Men or Sky Rojo are followed by millions of viewers thanks to the impulse of the platforms. Some of the professions needed for their implementation are: director, director, scriptwriter, producer, editor or creative. These are precisely the skills that can be acquired by taking this official qualification.

    Director of the Master's in Fiction Series Direction and Production

    "We are very proud of our Master's Degree in Direction and Production of Fiction Series, because apart from being an official postgraduate course, which is an asset for professionals in this area, we have a modern, up-to-date syllabus that is in tune with the reality of the sector. We are confident in our training because over the years we have prepared students for a dynamic, changing and ever-changing sector. We not only deal with the direction and production of series, but also with the analysis and elaboration of scripts, editing, planning, working with actors, the adaptation of sets and the use of soundtracks. We understand the creation of an audiovisual fiction work as a whole, and we are committed to the specialisation of the professions. I am not saying anything new if I say that we are living in a new golden age of fiction series; more and more commented, celebrated and shared every day, thanks, in particular, to the impulse of new platforms and new creators. At Nebrija we guarantee, as it could not be otherwise, a thorough, plural and absolutely practical work from day one.

    Pokeepsie and Nebrija, an alliance for the future_.

    Gustavo Adolfo Girado, student of Master In Direction and Production of Fiction Series, tells us first-hand about his experience with our partner Pokeepsie Films, production company of Álex de la Iglesia and Carolina Bang. Creators of series such as 30 Monedas, Pokeepsie Films is committed to the integration of our students in their creative team, which provides a very powerful experience in working in real teams, promoting the employability and practicality of the training.

    Nebrija University and Pokeepsie Films, an alliance for the future_.

    With Pokeepsie Films, Alex de la Iglesia (screenwriter, director and producer), and Carolina Bang (actress and producer), aim to provide an outlet for new talents who enjoy the fantasy genre, suspense, horror and a different way of telling things. For this reason, they have found the Nebrija University and this Master's Degree as the perfect partner, validating the training process, providing expert professionals as part of the teaching staff and facilitating professional internships for students, which guarantees the quality and timeliness of the training.
