Same here... First one to get something should write haha

 

[Arbyrnes]

Just got an invite over email for directing. Anyone else? Hoping this means they’re sending them to everyone now. Fingers crossed for everyone.

 

[Noahm]

Got an email as well! is anyone else running into the error "registration is no longer available" when signing up for a time?

 

[21powells]

Has anyone gotten an invite for screenwriting yet?

I did but only because I tried selecting a spot that, after refreshing, I realized was already taken.

 

[Noahm]

interesting, for me it's like every single one. Have you signed up for a time now?

 

[anasta.sia]

I just received an interview for Directing! Good luck to everyone!!!

Yeah, Monday the 3rd at 11am. Maybe try the link again? Or call them directly to troubleshoot?

Congrats! Don't forget to log/update your applications with this info if you haven't yet! Good luck!

If anyone was having a similar issue, I called dodge and they updated some internal problem and it worked fine for me now!

Had my cinematography interview 2 nights ago, was more of a conversation than an interview. Like really no formally posed questions asked at all besides where else I was applying, it was super chill. Curious if anyone else had a similar experience..?

I have an interview tomorrow for the Screenwriting program and was wondering if anyone here has gone through the process and could share what to expect. I’d love any insight into the kinds of questions they ask, how in-depth they go into your writing sample, or just the overall vibe of the interview. Even if your interview wasn’t for screenwriting specifically, I’d still really appreciate hearing about your experience!

Similar here. My interviewer only asked me about why major, then was a casual conversation about what I answered. I thought it would be more about my portfolio but what happened was actually unexpected chill haha

 

[hannathatsit]

I received an interview for screenwriting two days ago (feb 24th)!

 

[omay]
