My Story

After earning her degree in Art History in Barcelona, Yasmina joined various London agencies such as Saatchi & Saatchi and Springer & Jacoby UK to immerse herself in the world of advertising. However, she quickly realized her true place was behind the camera. She enrolled in the London Film School to pursue a Master’s in Filmmaking.

During her time as a student in London, she had the opportunity to direct short films both as a director and a cinematographer. At The London Film School, she nurtured her vision and soul, learning from directors like Mike Leigh, Patrice Leconte, and Mike Figgis, among others. Her graduation short film, *3 Washes*, won several awards at international film festivals.

Upon returning to Spain, Yasmina began directing TV commercials for international clients such as Fanta, Garnier, Dove, L’Oréal, Vodafone, Huawei, SEAT, Mango, and Movistar. She also directed the documentary *Medicines, A Hijacked Right*, which was broadcast nationally on TVE (Spain).

Currently based in Madrid, Yasmina is always eager to shoot her next project.
