Film production in Córdoba
Between December and June, usable daylight in Córdoba moves by 4h 04min — from 14h 11min down to 10h 07min. An exterior day in December is a different day from one in June. This page carries sunrise, sunset and golden-hour times for all twelve months.
Light and shooting hours
On 15 June, the sun in Córdoba rises at 08:15 and sets at 18:21; the evening golden hour starts at 17:45 and runs for 37 minutes. By December that shifts to 06:07–20:18, with a 36-minute golden-hour window from 19:42.
In practice, a spread of 4h 04min means a schedule that works here in summer does not work in winter at the same location — with the same setup count, the hours simply are not there.

Blue hour and shooting windows
Blue hour in Córdoba starts at 18:38 in June and ends at 18:48 — a window of 10 minutes. In December it is 11 minutes from 20:35. If you need a city view with lit windows, that window is all you get.
Sunset moves fastest around the equinoxes: between March (19:36) and September (19:09) there are 27 minutes of difference. A schedule running over several weeks cannot work from one fixed "sunset" time.
Planning a shoot here
A schedule that ignores these numbers looks fine on paper and falls over on the day. TillyGen folds sun position, travel and crew availability straight into the schedule — if the exterior no longer fits before sunset in June, the plan says so, not the wrap report.
