AFI App for Fall 2009

[KayS]

hey hey! hook 'em, JG!

 

[Filipe]

Congrats, JG!

God, now I'm terrified!

 

[KayS]

Filipe, I had a hard time deciding because the interview with AFI was so convincing and I love the conservatory format. But after a lot of thinking, I decided USC is better for me career-wise since I'm more interested in television writing and AFI doesn't offer much for that.

I'm in New York right now, but as soon as I can get home to Austin and mail in my deposit to USC, I'll be giving up my seat at AFI. So if any of you get on the waitlist for AFI, you DEFINITELY still have a chance!

Thanks! I applied for screenwriting. I'll keep my fingers crossed for everyone.

dang kay, congrats

you must feel like a million bucks

sill waiting here ;0

 

[KayS]

thanks justin! I honestly didn't expect to hear anything from anyone. Was already preparing ideas for my next application! But hang in there. Good or bad, you don't need them to decide for you whether or not you're gonna make things happen.

 

[Justin18]

jg, thumbs up too ;0

 

[Filipe]

I'm glad to know the anxiety is finally over for you, Kays! =)

I also fell in love with AFI during my interview (which was by phone!!!) hehehe

And at the moment, I feel that's where I have the biggest chance. I haven't heard a word from NYU/Columbia/USC/Northwestern yet, so...

 

[KayS]

I'm sending you good vibes, Filipe. But I hope you go to USC!!!

 

[Justin18]

thanks for the good advice, kay

guess all i can do is wait one more day and see what happens

here's the dreaded question... did it appear to be a mass acceptance email?

 

[Filipe]

... and let the theories begin, right, Justin18? =)

 

[Filipe]

Thnaks a lot KayS. I'm sure both of them are awesome!

 

[Justin18]

exactly ;0

maybe they're, um, doing it alphabetically

is that being hopeful or am i in denial?

only time will tell i guess

 

[SimAlex]

i'm in roughly the same region of the country as both JG @ KayS ... i didn't get an e-mail, so i'm thinking i won't be getting an e-mail. i'm thinking that's not a promising sign (for me at least), if they're doing it geographically. who knows.

 

[Merkin Muffley]

I've been accepted for Screenwriting. Now I need to figure out how exactly I am going to pay for it.

Good luck to you all!

 

[Filipe]

Congratulations, Merkin!

I'm sure you find some way to resolve the financial issues.

Hi guys,
just got a call from AFI scheduling an interview for this friday(phone interview, actually, since I'm in Spain). I've applied for Producing, so I guess they're still interviewing candidates this week.

Any other Producing applicants are waiting for their interview?

I applied for producing and got my interview on Feb. 26th. I think I remember you saying (I hope it was you) that you applied late, so it would make sense they would call you about now...
I hope everything goes well, but I guess this just means that producing results won't be in for a while then.

Best of luck!

Congrats to everyone who has been accepted for screenwriting! I'm still hoping it wasn't a mass email...
