NFTS 2014

[Jappr]

Received an email with my rejection this afternoon, sadly. So did my friend, around the same time. I guess they're finishing up their shortlist, so for all you waiting: I hope the waiting will be over by tomorrow and good luck If you're invited to an interview: go for it and proudly fill up my spot

I was also rejected, oh well.

Hey Zara and others...I also had my interview for MA screenwriting on the 11th July...they said at the conclusion of the interview it would take 2 weeks to hear from them, however on the email I received confirming my interview, it stated that the decision would be made in the week commencing the 15th and we would be informed during that week...Oh god. Such paranoia. Has anyone heard anything back yet from the screenwriting interview process?

I had an interview for Screenwriting last week - has anyone heard back anything? The wait is killing me!

Yup, yup, yup. Hanging in. Clenched sphincter. Ignoring urge to check email inbox. That's all there is right now.

Got my rejection letter yesterday...their loss also got interest in my black comedy feature script from a medium-sized established prod co...so ever onward & upward my fellow DF rejecters & best of luck to the DF-ers who were shortlisted. GROUP HUG, x

 

[Studenty]

I'm trying to quit. Bad timing!

Got rejection letter yesterday - not sure this will actually help or hinder my smoking - but in case you missed it, I also got interest in my black comedy feature from a prod co, hey ho. Wishing you well...

No one has the key.. But isn't it a bit odd to be sending letters these days??

Beyond bizarre - I'm meeting someone end July whom I kept my application secret from & will ask him a few questions - not many because I want to concentrate on getting his advice about my feature script - but it just goes to show that it doesn't matter who you know with the NFTS!

It's tantamount to torture. On the bright side, at least we don't have to go through a further stage of workshops like some of the other MA courses - I think that would tip me over the edge...

Surely is. Have been through something like this before, but this is somehow much worse. Are we getting advised via email or snail? Any ideas?

 

[Zara DS]

I thought there could be a workshop for Screenwriting? I read it on the course's website.
The invitation for the interview came via email, so I guess it will be email again?

As every other bit of communication has been by email so far, I would agree with Zara, and guess it would also be by email.

Pretty sure there isn't a workshop for screenwriting, but I may be totally wrong, and if they are struggling to whittle down the numbers I guess they may want to have one so they can do a final sift that way.
