Behind the cameras: TV

  • Tras la huella”-On the Track, episodes: “Estafa” -Scam & “Huella imborrable” -Indelible track. June-July 2012.

I worked as Art Director (Production Design) and Co-Director in the Tras la huella (On the Track) crime TV series, the only one of its kind in the country. It depicts factual events and it’s produced by the Higher Institute of Police Sciences of the Ministry of Interior.

This was my third time working in TV, spanning over 40 days in the production (pre-production and shooting). One of the series directors, my then Film History professor at the University of Arts of Cuba, had invited me to join the production. For the most part, the series was shot in location, with only a few exceptions. During every production, we shot two episodes. This time I worked on the episodes Estafa (Scam) and Huella imborrable (Indelible track).
