    AFI 2014

    That review is SUPER OLD - The program has changed heaps since then. Yes, people get discontinued for 2nd year, but the 80% does continue. You have to be really bad at your commitment and talent for them not to continue a fellow, and most of the time people are given enough notice to know they...

    Hey there! I'm an AFI Producer alum, I can tell you that they're going to ask about your background a bit, if you don't come from Film, they may ask why do you want to pursue film as a career. They'll also inquire if you need financial help, apply to their 1st year scholarships and so on...

    AFI 2010

    Well they are extended for different reasons but remember that not only americans attend the school, and us internationals are not granted these kinds of scholarships and loans. So they extend just in case to get enough applicants just in case, or that seems to be the case. Our PD's are...

    Chapman VS. AFI

    LOL I was at the 6th floor at the LA Film S. and the girl giving the tour freaked out big time, rushed by herself out and everyone was trampling... I'm used to earthquakes cause Caracas has them sometimes, so I knew how to evacuate the building but people were not trained, that was just the...

    AFI App for Fall 2009

    Hi Ezgi! LoL I would like to say I'm not superstitious, but I am. I don't have a lucky pair of jeans, but you know if I get a weird feeling about things I almost never take it... and it was funny cause when I went to AFI I got exactly the opposite feeling from LFS... the campus might be a...

    Chapman VS. AFI

    I've only gone to AFI, and well LA Film School for a visit. I went last summer and went through the facilities and such. True, AFI is not as new or equipped if you compare it to LFS they should probably invest in new technology, but I was treated very nicely by the people that showed me around...

    AFI App for Fall 2009

    Hi Ezgi! My interview wasn't very long either, it didn't last more than 20 minutes, I doubt it went much more than 15. I was not interviewing for Direction though, but for Producing. I think that they have a very good idea of who you are through your statement more than the interview, I think...
