BARCELONA ISSUE 43 Feb 2006

Welcome to SHOWCASE SPAIN - brought to you by Production Paradise.

They say that young people soak up images faster and faster these days. But now it's also getting easier for them to create their own images, capture ideas, invent stories or even make history... Today, making a short film can be as easy as you like, or as complicated as ever. Techniques are changing fast; technology even faster. Creating videos is not just a part of daily life; it's a leisure pursuit.

Barcelona VisualSound embodies and celebrates all of this in its 3rd edition which takes place from 1 - 21 February. For more info, visit www.bcnvisualsound.org.

Barcelona has some of Spain's best production companies, photographers and advertising agencies, and there is always plenty of production work going on in the city. For details of Barcelona's best visual media companies, visit our directory at www.productionsparadise.com

Our cover photo "Barcelona" was shot by Michel Comte for Luisa Cerano. Model was Nadja Auermann and the production was done by Setup Productions.
