Volvemos a la carga con mucho teatro y más ganas que nunca de poder compartir este maravilloso arte con vosotros. Teatro en estado puro al alcance de todos! El nivel inicial tiene una gran importancia en el camino del desarrollo teatral, ya que en este primer contacto con el teatro nos basamos en comprender el hecho teatral en sí. Para ello realizamos una formación actoral básica, basándonos en las técnicas y disciplinas básicas de las artes escénicas, así como en los conocimientos indispensables para cualquier actor. Trabajo de improvisación, voz, expresión corporal, paleta emotiva, escenas, creación y trabajo de personajes, creación propia, desbloqueos etc. Siempre trabajando de una manera lúdica, el alumno podrá investigar las distintas herramientas escénicas que se pueden dar en el espacio teatral, mejorar la expresividad, potenciar la creatividad, el trabajo en grupo, la autoestima, y mucho más. Tomará conciencia de su cuerpo, del espacio, aprenderá de forma práctica como es la relación con los objetos, la creación de personajes y el trabajo de la improvisación, mejorando la expresión corporal y oral. Pero sobretodo DIVERTIRSE HACIENDO TEATRO, ese es nuestro principal objetivo. No os preocupéis si no hay mucha gente apuntada por meetup, la actividad se hace igual porque tenemos más gente apuntada por otros lugares.

Únete a Search Barcelona para aprender sobre SEO en China, como trabajamos con AI y SEO más un juego SEO en The Hot Seat ## ¡Bienvenido a Search Barcelona! Prepárate para una tarde increíble en persona donde exploraremos en SEO en China, la revolución de la IA aplicada al SEO y, un juego interactivo por que se llama "The SEO Hot Seat". No te pierdas esta oportunidad única de conectar, compartir y llevar tu SEO al siguiente nivel con expertos y apasionados del sector. Our next Search Barcelona will be in Spanish. We will have two talks, one by [Natalia Witczyk](https://www.eventbrite.com/e/entradas-search-barcelona-seo-in-china-seo-con-ai-y-the-seo-hot-seat-1986508535505?aff=oddtdtcreator&keep_tld=true) and one by [David Carrasco Pamies](https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-carrasco-pamies/ "https://www.linkedin.com/in/david-carrasco-pamies/"). **SEO Made in China: lecciones de marketing de mi 6 meses en Oriente** Esta charla explora cómo las superapps y los ecosistemas cerrados han redefinido el marketing digital en China. Natalia Witczyk pasó 6 meses en China aprendiendo sobre el mundo sin Google. Analizaremos cómo es el sistema digital de ahí ahora mismo y qué procesos acelerados impulsan sus tendencias. Descubre las claves de un mercado que opera a una velocidad y escala totalmente distintas, y aprende como aplicar esos conocimientos a tu estrategia de marketing. **Natalia Witczyk** es una consultora SEO independiente multilingüe, especializada en SEO Internacional. Es la fundadora de la consultora Mosquita Digital. Ha pasado más de 11 años creando e implementando estrategias SEO para motores como Google, Bing, Yandex y Baidu. Es nativa de Polonia y tiene experiencia profesional en Reino Unido, España y últimamente en China. **Gnōthi seautón (Know Thyself) - *Como descubrir y corregir lo que la IA dice de tu marca*** La charla explora por qué el SEO como disciplina ha ido perdiendo el contacto con el ser humano que está detrás de la búsqueda y qué hace falta para recuperarlo. Arranca con una mirada antropológica y lo conecta con lo que está pasando ahora mismo: la IA ha commoditizado el contenido, ha hecho visible la incoherencia de marca y ha expuesto un hueco que la mayoría de empresas no saben que tienen. No es una charla teórica. Incluye un caso de estudio real con resultados, un framework que la audiencia puede aplicar el lunes y un método sencillo con el que los asistentes podrán comprobar en directo la "deuda de identidad" de su propia marca: la distancia entre quiénes son y cómo los perciben los usuarios, los buscadores y los sistemas de IA. El tono es provocador pero inclusivo. Sin señalar con el dedo, sin catastrofismo. El objetivo es que la sala piense de forma diferente sobre lo que realmente es el trabajo de SEO y se vaya con algo concreto que hacer al respecto. David hablara cómo llegar al usuario actualmente, el impacto de IA, keyword research, y estrategia. Takeaways: 1\. Cómo el SEO perdió al usuario y por qué eso importa más que nunca\. 2\. Qué es la deuda de identidad y por qué la IA acaba de hacerla visible\. 3\. Un proceso real para volver a mirar al ser humano que busca\. **David Carrasco Pamies** es consultor de SEO estratégico con más de 15 años de experiencia en mercados internacionales. Fundó, escaló y vendió una empresa tecnológica: una experiencia que marcó su forma de entender el crecimiento, el producto y la visibilidad digital. Le obsesiona entender cómo los buscadores y los sistemas de IA deciden quién se ve y quién no. Generalista por convicción, conecta ideas entre SEO, estrategia de marca, psicología y tecnología. Speaker y formador en conferencias internacionales de SEO. We will have two talks, both in Spanish and then an SEO game called "The Hot Seat". The Hot Seat" Real SEO nightmares. One mic. Ninety seconds. Could you solve them under pressure? How it works: \- David presents 5 absurd\-but\-real client scenarios on screen \(think: "Your intern used AI to publish 50\,000 pages without telling anyone — traffic is up 400% but Google just started deindexing\. What do you do Monday morning?"\)\. \- For each scenario\, a volunteer takes the hot seat and has 90 seconds to pitch their strategy to the room\. \- Then David asks: "Would anyone do it completely differently?" A second person gets 60 seconds to counter\. \- The room votes on which approach wins\. David closes each round with his take or reveal what actually happened\. \- Five rounds\, five nightmares **We’re pleased to announce that Collaborator is the headline sponsor of the upcoming Search Barcelona event.** [Collaborator](https://collaborator.pro/?utm_source=searchldn&utm_medium=offline&utm_campaign=search_barcelona&utm_content=post "https://collaborator.pro/?utm_source=searchldn&utm_medium=offline&utm_campaign=search_barcelona&utm_content=post") is a digital PR marketplace that helps SEO specialists, marketers, and PR teams increase online visibility by guest posting and digital PR content distribution across trusted websites, with transparent SEO metrics, including data from Google Analytics and Google Search Console.

Volvemos a la carga con mucho teatro y más ganas que nunca de poder compartir este maravilloso arte con vosotros. Teatro en estado puro al alcance de todos! Este curso pretende facilitar el descubrimiento y la ejercitación de los hábitos creadores del actor en el alumnado. Haremos un repaso de todo lo aprendido (técnicas de formación del actor, cuerpo, voz, paleta emotiva, improvisaciones, desbloqueos…) para entrar a fondo en un trabajo de escenas cinematográficas y teatrales. Los alumnos aprenderán, mediante la práctica, a trabajar una secuencia cinematográfica y una escena teatral, se enfrentaran a retos de creación de personajes y escenas, en función de la necesidad de superación de cada alumno. Se les otorgará personajes y situaciones más conflictivas, siempre enfocándonos a la mejora y superación del trabajo interpretativo del alumno. Se trabajará a fondo el análisis de personajes y textos de distintos géneros, para finalmente presentar las escenas. Se incidirá más en el trabajo individual y grupal para mejorar las capacidades actorales. Todo esto intercalado, con clases prácticas y de formación actoral, para poder ir aplicando lo aprendido en las escenas y profundizar en un trabajo más completo.

IMPORTANT!!! THE DATE OF THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CHANGED TO SUNDAY MAY 17, 2026!!! A very unusual choice for his group... Unknown Number: High School Catfish is an American [true crime](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/True_crime "True crime") documentary film directed by [Skye Borgman](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skye_Borgman "Skye Borgman") and released to [streaming](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_media "Streaming media") on [Netflix](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netflix "Netflix") on August 29, 2025. The documentary explores the events and investigation into an unknown person [cyberbully](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyberbullying "Cyberbullying") and [harassing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harassment "Harassment") teenagers in [Beal City, Michigan](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beal_City,_Michigan "Beal City, Michigan") using an unknown number via insults and sexual claims. It also explores the increasingly great impact of the harassment on the community, the eventual reveal of the culprit, and the trial that followed. IMPORTANT INFO: I strongly suggest not reading anything about it online before seeing it. It's best viewed with no previous knowledge. This documentary contains crude terminology and deals with cyberbullying, which may be a trigger for some folks. Please be ready to discuss the movie by 7PM. Thanks. Unfortunately, it is only available on Netflix. If you would like to attend but do not have Netflix, say so and maybe we can figure something out.

Join us as we get together to see your choice of two VERY different movies – one sweet and wholesome – the other a terrifying folklore horror! Option 1 is the fun whodunnit-action-comedy-mystery led by Hugh Jackman, THE SHEEP DETECTIVES! Option 2 is the top-reviewed supernatural-horror-thriller starring Adam Scott, HOKUM! Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: THE SHEEP DETECTIVES: Every night a shepherd reads aloud a murder mystery, pretending his sheep can understand. When he is found dead, the sheep realize at once that it was a murder and think they know everything about how to go about solving it. The film is directed by Kyle Balda and take a look at this ensemble cast: Hugh Jackman, Nicholas Braun, Molly Gordon, Hong Chau and Emma Thompson and the voices of Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Bryan Cranston, Chris O'Dowd, Regina Hall, Patrick Stewart, Bella Ramsey, Brett Goldstein and Rhys Darby. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pyZI5oM6hWk HOKUM: In this film, a horror writer visits an Irish inn to scatter his parents' ashes, unaware the property is said to be haunted by a witch. It is written/directed by Damian McCarthy stars Adam Scott, Peter Coonan, David Wilmot, Florence Ordesh and Austin Amelio. Hokum premiered to rave reviews at this year’s SXSW Festival and is being release by Neon. It is earning a stellar 97% positive rating on Rotten Tomatoes, which calls it, “A classic haunted house story enriched with atmospheric folklore and perfectly-timed shocks!” TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EVCIK_MPyhc PLAN: We’ll plan for a 7pm-ish showing of both films and will meet inside the theater lobby about 20 minutes before showtime. If the showtimes work out, we’ll try to get both groups together for a bite before the shows! Complete details and showtime will be confirmed/announced as the date gets closer. Look forward to seeing you there, Dan

Join us as we kick off Summer Movie Season with a Happy Hour & a movie event to see the sci-fi action-adventure, THE MANDOLARIAN AND GROGU! The sci-fi action-adventure follows a lone bounty hunter and his apprentice Grogu (Baby Yoda) embark on an exciting new Star Wars adventure. Here are details, a trailer and our plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: In the film, Djarin and his apprentice Grogu are enlisted by the New Republic during a period where remaining Imperial warlords threaten the galaxy. The film is written/directed by Jon Favreau (the mastermind behind the early MCU films) and stars Pedro Pascal, Sigourney Weaver and Jeremy Allen White. TRAILER: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uwild1rw7Aw HAPPY HOUR PLAN: For Happy Hour food and drinks before the show we’ll meet in the bar area at nearby Bravo at 5:15pm! We’ll have a section reserved for the group, so keep an eye out for us and we’ll keep one out for you! CMG Pro Tip: If you can, bring cash as it helps make for a quicker exit from the restaurant. MOVIE PLAN: Please purchase your ticket for the 6:45pm showing and meet in the lobby area at 6:30pm! Tickets on sale now and advance purchase as soon as possible is advised! Once you have yours, please list you seat number in the Comments section of this event. Happy Summer and See You Soon, Dan
