About EBAV- Escola Brasileira de Audiovisual
EBAV - Escola Brasileira de Audiovisual is a unique institution that combines work as a video production company with a strong educational and social mission. Founded by filmmaker Sérgio Assis, the company believes in art as a tool for transforming society, focusing on producing films and series inspired by real events and the biographies of Brazilians. Its goal is to produce content aligned with the technical training of new professionals, fostering the audiovisual market with an emphasis on bringing people to the cinema and generating relevant content.
The production company has a solid track record in the market, with its founder building experience since 1995. The company has worked with major industry names, including TV networks, global brands, and government bodies, which reinforces its expertise in high-level video production. This background is applied directly both to commercial projects and to the training it offers, connecting students to the realities of the industry.
One of EBAV's central pillars is the social project 'Cinema Leva Eu', a free audiovisual training program aimed at residents of socioeconomically vulnerable areas, such as peripheral neighborhoods and the Baixada Fluminense. The course provides transportation and meals, and students learn hands-on from industry professionals, culminating in the production of films chosen by the students themselves through pitching. The project has already trained more than 100 students and produced 10 films, demonstrating concrete social impact.
Beyond production and the school, EBAV is also responsible for the Festival de Cinema de Xerém, reinforcing its commitment to spreading film culture. The company positions itself as a hub that integrates creation, education, and social impact, using audiovisual as a tool to train, include, and tell genuinely Brazilian stories. Its tone is inspiring and committed, aimed at clients who value production with purpose and at young people aspiring to become audiovisual professionals.
