    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Nope, there was nothing like that. So did someone actually reach out to you? For me, that's a negative. Yeah. it looks like they are, and the whole process seems to take them longer, too, compared to previous years (judging by those old applications in our application tracker). So, 2-1 for...

    Yeah, being in the dark is always the worst :(

    LMU Writing for the Screen 2019

    Same thing here. I'm not sure if that has to do with their decision, however. Keeping people in the dark just because of some transcript issues would be weird.

    On the topic of waiting — come on, guys, the exact date makes it so much easier! We all know the day we will meet our fate. Personally, I'm a lot more teased by unspecified decisions dates, like with LMU Writing for the Screen. Some people got their acceptance letters, but there's no way to...

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Quite interestingly, my experience is similar. My Skype interview with Shinho was very cool (yes, exactly that). We discussed all the usual stuff, but I felt extremely relaxed, and sort of like there was a lot of air and space for me in our conversation... I hope it makes sense lol. By the...

    Very cool, congrats! =)

    Congratulations, that's so cool! You deserve this!

    LMU Writing for the Screen 2019

    So, did you get accepted?

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Oh, thanks for the heads up! Yeah, ironically enough, I actually prepared a small pitch this morning, asking myself in the process if I really needed it — there was no "tell me about yourselves" in my two previous interviews.

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Wow, thanks for the info, I have an interview with him in a few hours! Was he alone? Man, that sounds like a long time, tbh, especially since AFI Screenwriting DAY X is March 15th.

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Hahaha, that's funny =)). I live in Russia and they actually gave me a choice between Skype and phone. Anyway, sounds like it went rather well!

    Wow, good luck! I'm sure you'll nail it

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Yeah, when are your interviews? Mine's on March the 5th, around 5 pm EST

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Yay, just got mine, too! It doesn't address you by name, right? Actually, for the first few moments, I thought it was a scam or something, because of that, lol Congrats to everyone who received theirs!

    Wow, congratulations! Getting admitted without interview must feel so cool!

    NYU Dramatic Writing 2019

    Nope :(. My application status remains "submitted". I checked the application tracker. Last year, they were sending out the letters in the end of February, but the year before it was the first week of May. And Graduate Film has just sent out their invitations. So I guess we have to wait ¯\(ツ)/¯

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Yeah, it seems a big issue nowadays, where there's all those unexplored subjects like race and equality, yet you have to tread really, really carefully. Not at all, no. But hey, in my LMU interview they also had this "active cop, quiet cop" thing. With Jennifer, though, sometimes it seemed...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Yeah, on the other hand, I just watched Blackkklansman yesterday (which they praised), and in many ways it felt safe to me, too. First off, the supremacists are depicted as clueless to the point where they don't feel dangerous (up until the last 3 minutes of the movie). I also felt like...

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    I believe you did the right thing. Even though those interviews are laid back, both Anna and Jennifer seemed a bit serious to me, so maybe showing your fighting spirits could turn out too risky.

    AFI 2019 Screenwriting

    Yeah, the girl from the school office said March 15th was THE DAY. I asked if it was "by 15th" or something like that, and she replied they sent all the letters precisely on that day. Lol, I praised how Green Book demonstrated the absurdity of racism and Anna responded with an observation on...
