    Good TX undergrad film schools?

    Hi, I went to UT's undergrad film program. Okay, so here's the thing. There are lower-level courses and there are upper-level courses. You have to complete all four lower-level classes (which include 3 media study classes and 1 intro production class) before you can take any upper-level courses...

    Got the official rejection email today. But that's not a surprise because I didn't get an interview. Oh well. Congrats to everyone who got in or got waitlisted!

    NYU Graduate Film 2022

    I'd say do it individually. you might have talked about something specific regarding a school, etc. that doesn't apply to the others

    Attending (Off Waitlist After Interview) USC MFA Film & Television Production

    I've applied three times prior (Spring 2021, Fall 2021, Spring 2022), and was waitlisted for Spring 2021 and denied admittance for the other two. So, I am very familiar with USC's MFA application and requirements. I honestly couldn't bear to write another version of a Personal Statement based on...

    USC Film/TV Production MFA Media Sample - Existing project or brand new one?

    I have a friend who was accepted with his first application and he submitted a project he'd made two years prior. he was the writer/director of that project. (sorry for the way-past-the-deadline reply; hopefully, this helps future applicants)

    I know that both films have been watched at least 95% or higher for two days' viewings. However, I also submitted the video links to other schools, so I have no idea who is watching it

    AFI Directing 2022

    Hi, I know I'm way late answering this. The admission person I talked to said it has to be narrative, unless you're applying for cinematography and want to submit it as part of your portfolio

    Applied NYU MFA Film & Television Production - Directing/Writing track

    Second time applying, so I was familiar with the process. Probably should've spent more time on the writing supplemental materials. Sent in a short film that I recently made.

    Denied (w/o Interview) AFI Conservatory Directing Fall 2022

    Application process went as smoothly as it could. Having applied once previously, I was familiar with the expectations and how long it would take me to accomplish the requirements. For the directing track, I submitted a short film that I recently made, as well as the Topic short film.

    USC MFA Film & TV Production Spring 2022

    I didn't get in either :( so I applied for the first time for spring 2021 and got interviewed and waitlisted (which was great and exciting!). but for my fall 2021 and spring 2022 applications, i've been outrightly rejected/not offered admission. I don't understand what's going wrong. Is it...

    Denied (After Interview) USC MFA Directing/Production - Spring 2022

    This is my third time applying, so I'm very familiar with the process. I added some new work to my portfolio. Re-wrote my Personal Statement, chose a new Writing Sample, and new supplemental film to showcase.
