NFTS - Directing Fiction Applications 2025

[SpaghettiWizard]

Congratulations! Could I just ask if you had views/ impressions on your Vimeo link like some other successful applicants?

Hmmmm, it's hard to tell. I purposely decided to ignore if my link got any views just so I could focus on other stuff in life and filmmaking without the jitters. My link is also in consideration by multiple festivals and was on a Vimeo showcase recently, so I can't tell if the views I've gotten (5 the last month) are from the NFTS or festivals. I don't have a paid account, so not sure I can see where the views come from?

Ahh okay, thank you for replying! I’ve also only recently decided to check stats because of this thread but there’s nothing Either way I guess it doesn’t really matter now - Good luck with everything! I hope everyone smashes it

Congratulations to all who got an interview invitation!
As I see from 2024 thread, the interview emails are staggered (~1 week or so), so there are still chances of getting one...

Nice! haven't received that yet, but expected as they will be interviewing in batches.

FYI, I also got my interview date later last evening.

Haven't received my date yet - can I ask people who have what date they were given? wondering if it will give me some idea of timeframe!

Just found this thread! I just confirmed that my interview will be on Friday and there is a one hour test before the interview. I am an international student and this is my first interview and test at NFTS, I would like someone to share the general content of the test and interview experience?

What does a man got to do to get an interview?

It’s hard, and it sucks that they’re leaving it so long to send out rejection emails too (cruel thing to do) but don’t give up! Whether you re-apply or not, you don’t need film school to succeed, it makes the journey easier but NFTS is not the be all and end all (it just feels that way for a bit)

Good luck to everyone for the interviews this week!
