GUSTAVO CORNILLON
I’m Gustavo Cornillon, dramaturge and scriptwriter for TV series, short and feature films from Buenos Aires. I have worked as a Project Manager at large scale companies, but in the middle of my life I left all behind to tell stories.
Considering my works, I want to highlight Luminaris, with a Guinness World Record to the Most Awarded Short (324 international prizes). And another short winner is El Guante/The Glove, my first script.
Ruta Misteriosa / Mysterious Road is an eight episode thriller, broadcasted by TV Pública Argentina and winner of the Premio Nacional de las Artes (National Arts Prize) in the Best TV/Radio Script category.
Soy tu Karma / I am your Karma is my first feature film script, a comedy with international cast. Sad to say, it was a critic flop but a big source for learning.
Next year, another comedy of my own will be premiered: Instrucciones para la Poligamia / Polygamy for Dummies, and surely this one it will enjoy better luck.
Beyond my theater plays and fictional scripts, I have written documentary series scripts for Discovery Channel, Wobi Channel and Canal Encuentro from Argentina. I am also professor at the National Cinema School (ENERC) for the TV Series Script class.
My motto is “better choose your problem before a problem chooses you”.
