Hi everyone, I was accepted by both schools. It's very hard to make a decision. I love the location and curriculum of LMU, but Emerson seems to have a higher rank. I personally love independent films and art films, so I'm afraid that the atmosphere of creation at LMU will be too commercial, but...
Application process was pretty straightforward. I spent a couple months working on my application materials, and then heard back about an interview in February, and found out about acceptance on March 29.
I applied early action but was deferred. And then I was waitlisted. I am really hoping to get off the wait list because it's my top choice among the schools that haven't outright rejected me.
It took about a month to fill my application and submitted on the due date and I had my interview on February 22nd and right now waiting to hear back if I got in or not.
When I toured the campus, LMU staff was so kind, the campus was so beautiful, and the facilities were cutting-edge. Also, when I met students, they introduced what they learn, what the school’s advantages. I hope they admit me!
It's interesting that LMU only required a cellphone-made video of about 2-3 minutes for visual sample this year. LMU has moved the deadline a month forward, it used to be Dec 15 last year, so it's hard to refer to the interview or decision notification dates in the database. Finger crossed.
Application for film schools is not for the faint of heart. A lot of work, time management, and creative thinking are needed to complete as well as stamina and persistence.
Fall 2024 application; LMU requires a full creative supplement compared to other years where it was optional, or portions...

I plan on applying to different Film Production programs for Fall 2024. I'm worried about the work load from August 1-November 1, with school, sports, college application essays, videos, etc. My question is, do you think I can work on Visual Samples during the summer? Do the prompts from each...
