Abstract

This article discusses the history of official filmmaking studies in Spain: both centers were it was taught, their headquarters, headmasters and their senior projects. This shall be addressed by dividing into three stages the time during which this education was available, prior to its incorporation into university degrees: The foundational stage, the golden age and the crisis that leads to their closure. During these three stages, their students underwent a change in their attitude, from their initial enthusiasm and excitement to disenchant­ment and the absolute rejection of their school during its final years.
