    AFI Screenwriting Fall 2021

    I'm sure you'll do great! Don't worry too much about it! I'm super anxious (especially "in advance") but as soon as it started, I got better. Waiting is definitely (before and after) the worst part.

    Good luck everyone! (And share your tips on staying sane)

    I have one more! It's called The Q&A with Jeff Goldsmith. They are interviewing a lot of directors/producers/screenwriters right now on the award season! Just listened to the first part of the episode with Pete Docter and Kemp Powers about Soul and another one with co-writer/director Darius...

    USC MFA Writing for Screen & Television (Screenwriting) 2021

    International here too and definitely the preparation is stressing me out! Not doing anything yet but definitely searching about visa procedures. I’ll probably get a vaccine in June (I’m hoping). In Brazil, they already finished with the first group (doctors and health workers) and just started...

    Chapman MFA Screenwriting Applicants 2021

    Yeees, I realized the same thing! Since I'm very anxious about the process, I'm lurking the other disciplines forums to see what people are up to and how is the process. Maybe they want to decide solemnly on our writings? Don't know hahahahaha

    Anxious. I honestly don't know anymore how many times I've been checking my email (and this forum) in the past few days. hahahaha I'll probably set a record here because I keep coming back to read last year's thread for the 100th time. At least here in my city things are starting to open again...

    How often are you checking your e-mail and this site?

    I even set sound notifications for my email 🤦‍♀️ Every time I hear it, my heart jumps but it turns out to be Netflix telling me that I need to finish all the cooking reality shows that I watch to relax 👀

    AFI Screenwriting Fall 2021

    Yees, I saw that too! I think they will be sending more requests with time! I don't know exactly how it works but they are probably dividing the interviewers because one person who got the request on the same day as me is being interviewed by the same professors. Maybe they do it like that, I...
