Ander Santamaría Canento

Director's Assistant / Direction / Production Services

Hello! My name is Ander Santamaría, I am 24 years old and I am a 2AD/assistant director.

I began my studies at the University of Navarra (Fcom UNAV), where I studied Audiovisual Communication. During my degree, I did an exchange at the film school at the University of Texas at Austin (UT Texas) and, after graduating, I was awarded the Extraordinary End of Degree Prize. It was then that I moved to Madrid to specialise in the directing department. After taking a course in Assistant Directing at ECAM, I completed a Master’s Degree in Film Directing at the TAI school, where I was able to direct my first professional short film entitled La primera vez, which has been selected by the distributor Moira Pictures. Throughout these years, I have also worked on several short films, music videos and a few larger productions. In addition, I have been developing several projects on my own, which are included along with the others in my CV for you to take a look at.

I currently live in Pamplona, have my own car, and am eager to work and continue learning. If you have any questions or are interested, please do not hesitate to contact me by email (ander.santamaria.canento@gmail.com) or by telephone (+34 616 39 30 23). I will be happy to provide further information.

Greetings! : )
