About our expert

Nicolas Salazar professor of the course Introduction to Screenwriting

Nicolas Salazar

Professor of Communication Sciences

He studied Film and TV Production, where he learned all the general knowledge of how to make audiovisual projects for film and TV. Although it was a good educational and practical base, you don't really finish learning until you put it into practice in the real world. Having worked in different communication platforms for more than 15 years (advertising, TV, journalism and web platforms) I managed to refine the concepts and order them in such a way that your learning is more effective and faster.
