From stage to screen.
El vals sin nombre, the visual world of Magic Hour and the documentary perspective of Señorías.
FANTASY / PRODUCTION
El vals sin nombre
A short film by Felipe Giuliano, produced by Madrid Produce and The Other Film Production. Its fantasy world brings together performance, production design and visual effects.
Shot entirely on green screen and developed with in-house resources, the project places image-making at the heart of the process. The world on screen takes shape beyond the set, requiring production to connect the shoot with the digital work that follows.
Bruno G. Arantes and David Torres are the producers, with cinematography by Cristina Calatrava, art direction by Amy Valen and a screenplay by Javier Santolobo and Elisa Puerto Aubel.

VISUAL DEVELOPMENT / PRE-PRODUCTION
Magic Hour · Hora Mágica
Cinema also begins before the shoot. For Hora Mágica, a project by Eugenio Zanetti, Madrid Produce worked on plans and concepts for pre-production.
The development images offer a glimpse of that world: a lagoon between rock walls, a monumental staircase, a greenhouse populated by visual references and characters. These working compositions explore space, scale and atmosphere—a window into the stage when a film’s world begins to take shape.
DOCUMENTARY / CO-PRODUCTION
Señorías
Madrid Produce’s film work also includes co-producing Señorías, a documentary short directed by María Guerra. A different approach to the moving image, through documentary filmmaking.
