The second training block of 2026 includes five specialised courses running between September and December, led by professionals with national and international experience<\/p>\n

The Cabildo de Fuerteventura, through Fuerteventura Film Commission, presented on Monday the second block of its 2026 training programme, a free, specialised training initiative aimed at boosting local talent and helping professionalise the island’s audiovisual sector.<\/p>\n

The presentation was attended by the councillor for Fuerteventura Film Commission, Nereida Calero, who noted that \u201cFuerteventura is hosting more and more audiovisual productions. So far this year, the island has already hosted around ten productions, including series and films, and we want that growth to also translate into opportunities for the talent on our island.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cThe aim is for people living in Fuerteventura to be able to gain these skills, and for companies to be able to select professionals resident on our island, through a training programme tailored to the sector’s needs.\u201d<\/p>\n

The presentation was also attended by some of the tutors taking part in this second training block: Jos\u00e9 Luis Valdivia, \u00d3scar Gonz\u00e1lez and Francis Bod\u00ed.<\/p>\n

The 2026 training programme is structured into two blocks. The first, held between May and July, included specialised courses in areas such as set design, screenwriting and sound post-production. The second block, running between September and December, introduces new training proposals geared towards the current demands of the audiovisual sector.<\/p>\n

Five new training proposals<\/h2>\n

This second block will begin with the course \u2018Sound in Audiovisual Projects\u2019, running from 28 September to 2 October and taught by Jos\u00e9 Luis Valdivia, a filmmaker, photojournalist and international tutor based in Fuerteventura. The course will offer a theoretical and practical overview of sound concepts, equipment and applications in real-world audiovisual production situations.<\/p>\n

From 26 to 30 October, it will be the turn of the \u2018Film Lighting\u2019 course, taught by \u00d3scar Gonz\u00e1lez, one of the most respected lighting technicians in the Canary Islands’ audiovisual scene, linked to the rental of lighting equipment and machinery for productions across the islands. The course will combine theoretical and practical content covering the use of light, shadows and professional equipment applied to audiovisual creation.<\/p>\n

The \u2018Professional Make-up for Audiovisual Media\u2019 course will run from 9 to 13 November, led by Francis Bod\u00ed, a make-up artist and characterisation technician on film sets. The content will cover aspects such as interpreting technical filming documentation, character design, make-up continuity, and characterisation, ambience and advertising techniques.<\/p>\n

From 16 to 20 November, the \u2018Photography Applied to Film and Television\u2019 course will take place, taught by Cecilia Bayonas, a set photographer. The training will provide basic knowledge of professional photography and a deeper understanding of image capture techniques.<\/p>\n

Finally, from 30 November to 4 December, the \u2018Wig-making\u2019 course will be held, taught by Paco Rodr\u00edguez, a professional who has worked on more than 60 television and film productions. The training will focus on teaching how to make, adapt and maintain wigs and hairpieces for work in fields such as film, theatre and television.<\/p>\n
