Introduction
Acting Training in Bilbao: A Unique Approach to Theater and Film
Unlike many academic disciplines, acting training is not just about accumulating theoretical knowledge or mastering various techniques. Acting is a deeply personal discipline, where an actor’s identity, voice, and body play a crucial role in their artistic development.
In the world of theater and film, no two actors or actresses are identical. Each performer has a unique resonance that sets them apart, making it impossible to establish a universal method of acting training. For this reason, acting education must be adapted to each student’s individuality, enhancing their strengths and exploring their expressive abilities in a personalized way.
This approach is reinforced in a vibrant environment like Bilbao and Bizkaia, where 166 productions were filmed in 2024. With a rapidly growing film and theater scene, the region has become a key hub for aspiring actors looking to develop their craft in a dynamic and expanding industry.
If you want to advance your career in film and performing arts, ECPV offers a unique space to explore your potential and connect with a thriving industry.

Our way of teaching
Nuestro método de estudios se basa en la teoría llevada a la práctica. La enseñanza debe ser impartida por profesionales en activo cercanos a la realidad de los rodajes, ya que, serán estos profesionales los que muestren al alumnado la actualidad de su oficio.
Study plan
Durante los tres cursos que constituyen el curso, el alumnado explorará cuestiones de cuerpo, de texto y de personaje hasta poder situarse en un proceso de interpretación pensado para obras audiovisuales y dramáticas. Este proceso se llevará a cabo desde un trabajo de introspección seguro y adaptado a cada alumna y cada alumno.
