    IELTS score for AFI Conservatory.

    Hi i started going to AFI this year. although i recently got my green card and didnt out apply as an international student, based on my previous experience with college application, the IELTS requirement most like means the OVERALL score needs to be above 7.0. And i think as long as you are not...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Damn I missed you at the AFI fest. I forgot to check in on this forum to see who were going. I met Anna Thomas and Michael Urban, the duo who interviewed me and said hi. I did not watch Haunt but I think Tree #3 was hands down one of the best. It's not the most creative story but definitely the...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Every time I turn away from this forum for a while I miss some intriguing conversations. First of all, regarding to what d890 has said about screenwriter being isolated from the rest of the tracks. I can understand how some non-writer AFI alumni might feel that way because all writers graduate...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    I never researched into USC. A lot of my NYU Tisch friends went to AFI what that became my de facto choice. What do you think USC is better at? Curious to know. And AFI and USC being both in LA, do you think they have collaborations?

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Like I said was rejected two years in a row by NYU without even an interview. I even had a recommendation letter from one of the NYU film teachers but still not in. So keep your chin up and you never know who'd be the one that can recognize your talent.

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Sorry I stayed away from this forum for a few days. I want to apologize for my little rant, did not want to offend anyone and obvious my view was biased. As I said, I think NYU has great teacher and they really have an eye for great ideas and scripts and they embody great working ethics (they...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    "the culture of NYC" is an interesting topic. I spoke to a NYU girl who lived in Brooklyn for 6 years and she complained about how she was pressured to dress in that "Brooklyn" look. Have a walk in that district (or the streets around Tisch, for that matter) and you will know what I mean. I...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    I do want to offer a different perspective on that. NYU's dramatic writing is undoubtably more writing focused (and they do produce scripts for the screen) but you will be surprised how little a proportion of the MFA Film students are writer-minded people. Most of whom I know want to cover as...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    First I want to jump into the discussion comparing NYU with AFI. Over the past 2 years, although not attending NYU, I had some quite substantial experience with this institution by working with its students on various projects and took two of its summer writing courses (for the two summer...
