When we decided to take the leap into the audiovisual industry, we knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Entrepreneurship in audiovisual production is always daunting: you don’t have a major studio behind you, you don’t own a large catalog, and in the beginning, professional contacts are scarce. However, we also understood that these limitations could turn into opportunities if we focused on what truly drives us: telling stories, experimenting with image and sound, and shaping projects that reflect our unique vision. Starting out doesn’t mean lacking talent or experience—it means daring to take a bigger step, even with all the doubts and fears that come with it.
Why 2025 Is the Best Year to Enter the Audiovisual Industry in Spain
We’ve discovered that 2025 is a pivotal year for audiovisual entrepreneurs in Spain. Never before have there been so many opportunities to produce, distribute, and share content. Technology is more accessible, short film festivals are multiplying their calls for submissions, and more brands and businesses are seeking creators capable of delivering fresh and compelling visual storytelling. Instead of focusing on obstacles, we prefer to see the historic moment we are living: an expanding audiovisual ecosystem in Spain that demands new voices, new aesthetics, and different creative proposals.
Netflix’s Billion-Euro Investment: A Game-Changer for Spain’s Audiovisual Sector
Recently, we read that Netflix will invest €1 billion in Spain through 2028, and this news completely shook us. Far from being distant, it’s a clear sign that the Spanish audiovisual industry is growing like never before. This investment doesn’t just benefit large studios or multimillion-dollar projects—it also translates into more filming across Spanish cities, more opportunities for technical crews, greater demand for complementary services, and ultimately, a more fertile ground for those of us already here, ready to create.
Independent Creators and the Netflix Wave
Although at times we may feel small compared to giants like Netflix, we see it as a huge wave we can surf. As Venezuelan women who have emigrated twice, we know what it means to start over, to rise after every challenge, and to reinvent ourselves in a foreign land. It’s not about waiting for someone to invite us onto that wave—it’s about paddling hard to catch it and take advantage of its momentum. With creativity, professionalism, and authenticity, we believe that even an independent project can stand out and find its place in this ever-expanding market.
Audiovisual Entrepreneurship as a Personal and Professional Commitment
Ultimately, starting an audiovisual project in 2025 is not just a professional decision—it’s also a personal commitment to our dreams. We know there will be setbacks, and we’ll need to learn from each step, but we’re equally aware that this is the ideal moment to act. The boom of the audiovisual industry in Spain inspires us to keep moving, to grow, to take risks, and to prove that there is room for new voices like ours.
And even though the road won’t be easy, our passion and our story as immigrants confirm that we are in the right place, at the perfect time.
