About Alberto Ludeña
I have 15+ years in broadcast, film, and digital media, with hands-on experience across design, VFX, on-set supervision, and post-production.
In the last two years, I expanded my executive training with Columbia University’s School of Engineering and Harvard Business School’s Business of Entertainment, Media, and Sports (BEMS) program—blending creative production expertise with strategic, business-focused execution.
I recently authored The International Film Commissions Guide, helping students and emerging professionals navigate global film hubs and trends in offshoring, while continuing to develop scalable, performance-informed media campaigns that align production, creative, and strategic objectives.
