    UCLA_MFA Producer Program_Advice for application materials

    Hey Tra, A one-page professional resume is the way to go. It doesn't need to be colorful. For the treatment you should have: logline summary of the concept (theme, tone, world, background info) main characters (brief summary of their arcs) synopsis (paint a picture of how the story starts and...

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    I emailed the program to ask, but I haven't heard anything back yet. I'll let you know as soon as I do. But I assume as long as we can make the April 15th deadline it should be fine.

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    Just throwing a possibility out there. Maybe I got an email because I'm an International student and need to prove my Financial situation for the F1 visa so I got an email to get the ball rolling on that. Perhaps domestic students don't need an email? Either way, I don't think you guys need to...

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    Yeah mine didn't say Peter stark either. But I checked the program website and it says MFA in Producing for Film, Television and New Media (The degree we will be pursuing) which matches the letter. Congratulations!

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    Oh right to answer an earlier question, I was notified by email to check the youSC portal. I'm overseas, not sure if it'll work like that for applicants in the US. Hope this helps.

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    Has anyone found any information on this in the past years? It's starting to feel like a bad sign if some people are getting 4 interviewers some are getting 3 and some are getting 2. What do you guys think, does it mean that they are less interested in the a applicant or do you think it's a...

    AFI - Producing Program 2022

    Hey everyone, how did you interviews go? I just had mine, but they had a system outage and couldn't see much of my application. So we just had some casual conversation and I have no idea if it went well or not. Was it like this for you guys as well?

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    This is very well said! I focused mostly on the Sino-US and Sino-French co-productions, I don't know much about Korea or Japan. Thanks, best of luck to you as well!

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    They didn't ask me those two questions either, but like Jenovard some of my answers were long as well. We mostly talked about a TV show I shot in China, my experience working on co-productions in Paris and my interest in international co-productions. To answer your question Jenovard, the...

    USC School of Cinematic Arts - Stark Producing Program 2022

    Hi everyone! Just had my interview today, I think I answered the questions decently but hard to be sure, there were some doozies. Luckily, I didn't have any connection issues. Best of luck on your interviews!
