Dear movies

The first time I went to the cinema my godmother took me. I do not go to the movies so often, but I’ve seen a lot of shows on Netflix with my mom. In general, the kind of films I like are dramas, mystery, psychological terror, maybe fantasy and I love musicals especially for all the staging, the choreography and all that. I don't have a favorite film director, but I prefer the European cinema. In fact, the best movie I’ve seen in this year was “Mar adentro” a Spanish film about euthanasia, it’s so emotional and dramatic.  And the last movie that I saw it was “The others”, a terror film. 

I can’t choose one favorite film, but like lately I’ve seen more series, I can see I have a favorite TV series: “Dark” a German television serial about a little town that lives around a nuclear plant and where disappearances of children occur. In the course reveal different secrets that hide four families around the disappearances, their personal stories and the nuclear plant.  

I like this series a lot because it has a very entertaining and complex plot among the families that star it, for the theories about time-space that it poses and because it is a series that keeps you attentive to every detail that happens, which contributes to suspense and mystery. In June of 2019 the new season comes out and I think I'll have to see it again. I've seen it twice but I would see it again because every time I discover new pieces of the puzzle, that's why I really recommend it. 

My favourite piece of technology

She is “Preciosa”, my photographic camera, I choose that name inspired by a character from “Ice Age”, which was basically the mascot of a crazy old woman, a whale. Anyway, I got it a year ago, when finally I could buy it, after having worked for it. I felt very fulfilled when I finally had it in my hands, because this was a goal I had a long time ago. Now that I have it, I try to use it as much as I can, although I would like to use it more. But it has been my salvation in college and very important tool. I would love to take her with me always, but being an object of great value, it makes me a little afraid that I will be assaulted and robbed of it, so that’s why I do not take it out so much. But every time I travel, I take her with me no matter what. I guess without her today I would know very little about photography, because I could not put it into practice.

The long road of how I chose my career

When I was just a little girl, smaller than now, I wanted to be a dancer, painter or veterinarian. I was six years old when I was like to make drawings and sculptures, that is registered in photos, so I was always interested in art and aesthetics in some way. Since I was a child I have danced in different academies, also my parents are actors, then I have always been closely linked to scenic arts. But, at a time in my life I loved the dinosaurs, because I played a video game about then, so I wanted to be paleontologist. Anyway, that is the closest to I have been to science. In the high school History become my favorite subject, which motivated me to choose the social science plan, but in the fourth degree I decided to change to the artistic plan. At that time my options were very varied:  Arts, photography, geography, architecture, art history, design... but none could convince me. Finally, I decided to study cinema because I found an option in which I could work with many things that I liked. So far, the career has been challenging, the hardest thing has been the group work. But what I enjoy the most is see movies and the works of my classmates. I would like to have a job where I can forma good work teams and find challenges you to grow, evolve and succeed. 

My biography

Hello I’m Antonia Miranda, this is my blog and on it I will tell you about my life.

I was born in Independecia, Santiago de Chile. In my most tender childhood I grew up in La Florida, and I went to Blanca Nieves Kindergarden. After that, with my family we went to live to Puente Alto to the present. Then I went to San Francisco de Asís School, In there I started to dance and I discovered (developed) this hobbie, over time I attended to different dance academies and I learned so much dance styles, like technical or jazz dance, and other urban styles like hip hop, dancehall, reggaeton and girly.

When I was in seventh grade I started to study in Liceo Carmela Carvajal de Prat High School, where I made my best friends to this day. Practically at the same time, I joined a scout group where I made some very good friends and I met my boyfriend. I graduated in 2018 and nowadays I study Cine y Televisión at the University of Chile.
