I submitted a complete five-minute short film but did not include a reel. Although I did not meet Chapman's IELTS requirement of 7.5, I still made it onto the waitlist, which was a pleasant surprise! However, I ultimately decided to withdraw from Chapman's waitlist as I received an offer from AFI.
Smooth application, submitted a five-minute short film, a three-page dialogue sample (same as submitted to SCA), and my nine-page portfolio of still photography. While Emerson is a school I admire, I will not be attending due to better school choices.
Hey guys, I saw someone post about receiving an offer from USC on the Chinese social platform Xiaohongshu (similar to Instagram). After confirming the information of the post carefully (MFA, SCA, Film and TV Production, Fall 2024), I noticed the date on the image shared online was February 17th...

I've selected two different short films as the sole editor, one was 5 minutes and the other was 30 minutes. But the time limit of each sample is 20 minutes, It took me a lot of time to restructure. Good luck everyone!
Preparing application materials has been quite challenging, especially the five-minute video sample part. I faced significant challenges in pre-production and on set, but I finally overcame those difficulties and completed the short film. In my personal statement, I wrote about my journey of...
