    Will I get in?

    NYU (2006) - Accepted 250 students into UGFTV (my parents were told during a tisch acceptance reception) USC - On their website it says that they accept only 50 students into the production program of the film school. UCLA - I heard from someone that they accept ~40 into their film program...

    Will I get in?

    the truth is that you can never really "lock" on to one of these film schools. From my experience: NYU - will largely focus on your creative submission. (but remember! aside from the film school reviewing your app, the general admissions of NYU will also review it. i don't know the details of...

    Tisch ED Chances

    Write a strong essay that can explain your motivation for choosing film and also make sure that you don't come across as being a "one-trick-pony." You should also probably upload your portfolio video so we can see it. At least what I found from applying to Tisch and USC CNTV (I was accepted to...

    Best school for masters?

    Interesting. Does the undergrad program use digital cameras more than film cameras? I'm also curious to know what kind of video equipment they got... I've seen a lot of students using the DVX100. Do students in the undergrad program have access to cameras that are better than the DVX100?

    Best school for masters?

    Is NYU's grad film program stronger than its undergraduate film program? The UGFTV faculty said that you don't need to pursue the grad program once you're in for undergrad.

    Tisch Resume Question

    I listed a TV show that I produced, one 40 minute school trip video, and numerous shorts that I did. I wouldn't be afraid of putting anything on that resume list... just don't make it ridiculously long. Because remember, they'll be spending the most time reviewing your submission (your photos...

    NYU: Tisch School Admissions HELP

    None of the videos I sent to NYU were story-based. They were actually music videos/animations/promos. Here's one of them: http://uthtv.com/umedia/show/273/. I think if you do send something "atmospheric" it has to convey a message of some sort... it can't just be camera technique or editing style.

    do you think Storyboarding would be helpful in learning to direct? or should I just stick with the DFS route? I'm also good at animation, but I don't want to be bottlenecked into that path if you know what I mean. Again, I greatly appreciate all of your replies titanium.

    NYU Film

    yeahhh that was the one i was thinking of... because after you take Intro to Animation, you can eventually take storyboarding... I thought that would be particularly useful to learn how to direct.
