Hi everyone,

I'm a MFA graduate of a top USA film school and have worked in the film school admissions process for five years while there. I have been offering consultations for filmschool org members on their applications, funding considerations, short scripts and feature projects. So feel free to reach out and I can share more information on my background - I've won awards at major film festivals globally and have extensive script consulting and teaching experience.

If you're about to submit to the East Coast schools I can be particularly helpful!

Could we chat?

Hi Vonnegut, I'm applying to NYU and Columbia for the second time this year. I was waitlisted last year and am hoping to get a little extra help, specifically with my personal essay and short screenplay, as I gear up to reapply. Thank you!

Congrats on already making it so far to be waitlisted last year, can definitely help you push things further. Sent you a DM.

Hi Film School Forum community,

As we enter November and the rush to get applications in begins - posting another reminder that I still have some consultation slots available for all those applying to NYU/COLUMBIA MFA. Please DM if seeking assistance in sharpening your samples/statements/interview prep etc - nearly all the people I assisted last year received interviews and the majority of those interviewed also received offers.

Looking forward to hearing from you.

Thank you Vonnegut!

For anyone wondering, Vonnegut is so helpful and professional and encouraging. He gives the most practical advice that is enlightening as well! I wish I could work with him on each and every project I have.

He helped me focus my attention and address my biggest weaknesses and gave me tools and confidence to solve them.

He helped me in my application to USC and NYU. I was able to get an interview with USC and I’m waiting to hear from NYU.

Working with Vonnegut was great! I truly appreciated how his mentoring approach is personalized and tailored to my needs. Hearing another perspective during my application was incredibly helpful. He has a good understanding of the application process and the type of students they're looking for. What I learned from him isn't just applicable to my application, but also to my journey as a filmmaker in general.

I'm very happy with the outcome (accepted to one of my dream programs) and feel fortunate to have had his assistance!

I had such a great experience working with Vonnegut! He was extremely helpful, right to the point, and understood my work well. His perspective is objective and his approach is surprisingly thorough. His support gave my application so much clarity and I felt really confident after meeting with him. I got into all 3 schools I applied to and couldn't recommend his consult more!
