question about LMU film and tv production application (2023 fall)

[cyber]

I just found out that the LMU has changed its requirement for the MFA program in film production. Does anyone else prepare the photo sequence and use it to apply for a film program?


SFTV considers applicants with a unique voice and vision, storytellers who are in the early stages of their filmmaking careers, as well as more experienced applicants.
Submit the following visual samples:

1. An eight-shot photo sequence in a PDF document that tells a visual story or develops a character.
2. A two-three-minute film shot with your cell phone and edited with any digital software in response to the following prompt: "An interesting person, place, or thing, I recently discovered".
