Anyone can share some insights on what type of questions they would ask for the directing program? Thank you so much

I was just contacted to interview for the Screenwriting program. Looks like there are loads of slots left open there over the next few days. Better late than never.

Likewise!

It's a pretty chill interview. They only asked me a few general questions, why do you want to direct, what kind of films do you want to direct, inspirations, favorite films etc.. Just relax and be yourself, they sent you an interview invite because they're interested in you and want to get to know you better. Good luck!

Just got an interview invitation for the screenwriting and directing program. But it's weird because I didn't apply for the screenwriting program. Is there anyone the same as me? Wonder why there are two interviews... Good luck everybody! Hope you all get into your dream schools.

Chapman sent me the invitation like 17 hours ago, but I didn't checked my gmail until just now. There are lots of slots are open for directing program, so I guess they're still sending out invitations.

I accidentally scheduled both. Just sent Chapman an email asking about this.

Same thing happened to me. They sent me an email asking me to just ignore the screenwriting one. You will only be able to access the directing one

How many slots would you say were left for the directing program? I’m getting a little nervous since I haven’t gotten anything ..

Are you in Orange County? They might schedule you a physical interview if so.

I haven’t received anything either, so I’m also nervous on it. Good luck for us!

They have opening left for March 1-3 for the directing interview. They have openings for tomorrow too. I wouldn’t get too nervous if you don’t hear anything by next week, it seems like they’re sending out interviews requests in batches

Hi, Tammy. Sorry to bother u. Can I ask you a question? I scheduled my interview, but didn't receive a Zoom link or a meeting ID from Chapman. Do I have to send them one or they would send me one before the interview? Thanks!
