    Because of the night tour I wasn’t able to see their camera equipment. Do you mind sharing what they had?

    AFI Directing 2022

    I liked it a lot it felt familiar because my undergraduate college had a similar set up. I do feel that the sound mixing rooms are smaller at least from what I was able to see. With that being said AFI is a dream school for me

    AFI Directing 2022

    I keep thinking back to what I said and I don’t understand what possessed me to say what I said 😅 I also feel like I didn’t get a chance to talk a whole lot now looking back.

    Regarding Calarts 2022 interview

    I would just say to remember that like most other programs, they are looking for people that have their own unique voice and perspective as a director. Lean in hard into what you like and what you want to create there. They really prioritize artistry and like when you already know who you are...

    Regarding Calarts 2022 interview

    I believe you get interviewed by Film Directing Faculty. They should all be very familiar with your materials because I think it’s the only graduate program in which the faculty chooses rather than an admissions committee. Congratulations and good luck to you!

    Don't give up! Especially on yourself! Losing faith in yourself is one of the hardest things to go through. You got this! Keep on making anything and everything. My favorite podcast to listen to on Spotify is called Make Art Not Content. Take a listen whenever you feel like this. It's super...

    AFI Directing 2022

    Mine is simply based on the fact that if they are looking for 26 fellows. Admissions will want to double their prospective fellows by roughly doubling that number, giving enough room for a waitlist to form in case some fellows don’t attend. Also I talked to an admission person at a different...

    I'm a little scared about the no working part but, I get the total focus on the craft thing.

    AFI Directing 2022

    I feel you! I kinda did the math. I figured they interview maybe 43-45 candidates for directing and admit 26. I know past years its been 28. So it's a 50/50? maybe 60/40?

    AFI Directing 2022

    Completely agree! I think it’s also about the fact that they are trying to create a class of fellows. So it comes down to some things that are completely out of our control and has very little about our abilities and more to do with admissions making sure they have an array of different voices. 🤷‍♀️

    From my experience, they weren’t at all poker face! I initially thought this too! But they were super sweet and complimentary.
