Is there anyone on here that has attended or is currently attending this program? I have an interview with them in a few weeks and am looking for some insight into whether it's worth the cost.
 
Hi all, this thread seems kinda dead, but I'm curious to see what images people used in their interviews since I couldn't find any info about it online and had to trust my gut when deciding what to present.

I went with one of my favorite paintings, Watson and the Shark by John Singleton Copley, and talked at length about the emotions and sensory experiences I'd focus on if I could shoot this as a scene.
 
Hallo!! I have an interview at CUNY tomorrow, are there any tips anyone could give me or let me know how the interview went and kind of what they're looking for in a candidate in your opinion? thanks
