WHAT IS 709?
709 Media Room is an audiovisual project led by Luis Ochoa since 2011.
We are not an audiovisual school; we are a group of professionals who, in addition to having real-world experience, know how to communicate it to others. Our formula is simple: we identify the industry’s real training needs and develop high-level curricula, taught by professionals for professionals.
The productions we work on every day can be seen here.
And, of course, in movie theaters
