TISCH 2011 hopefuls lets nail-bite together!

[mfilms]

Let's hope this forum picks up in early 2011... I can't wait to hear who is getting interviewed!!

 

[mfilms]

Here are some interesting interviews from Oliver Stone and Martin Scorcese from back in the day... They reference their student films/days at NYU and even show some of the clips!

3 letters of recommendation, 750 word limit for personal statement, and one completed screenplay or tv script, right?

That's what I submitted. Is there a 2011 NYU Dramatic Writing MFA thread on this forum...or should we revive this one:

That's what I did. Though my three letters weren't from really well-connected people unfortunately.

Same. I just had my professors write the recs. No industry people.

I'm so tempted to go read over my screenplay and scrutinize every little detail, but I don't want to sacrifice my sanity.

KrisKelvin, maybe the 111 pages you did submit are so good that they'll call you in for an interview just so they can read the last 2! Think of it that way!

I hope everything works out!...And don't punch yourself in the face

Sorry, just noticed this. I actually went ahead and mailed them the last 2 pages (page and a half really) with a note attached. Hopefully it doesn't backfire on me!

Here is a link to one of Spike Lee's student films from NYU:

It's pretty good, short and sweet!

mfilms, I am 100% sure that Spike Lee had nothing to do with that film. It's just a stupid joke.

 

[mfilms]

Really? Had no idea - thanks for clarifying

 

[FilmClassicGirl]

Yeah, mfilms, that was just some clown uploading it and saying it was Spike Lee's short. It's definitely not his.

Any Tisch MFA Directing interviews yet? I'm guessing it's probably way too early... Here's a great old school music video from Spike Jonze to watch in the meantime!:

What do you all think of it? It was shot in Super 16mm

 

[Schmartmann]

Oh boy, guys. Any word about interviews yet? Is anyone else applying for the Dramatic Writing MFA with a specialization in TV Writing?

 

[Lolo]

Just got an email from Kanbar to interview for NYU MBA/MFA program. Anyone else hearing anything yet?

 

[saintman]

Congrats Lolo ..
best wishes for the interview ...

 

[itsmazhar]

@Lolo: Is the interview for NYU tisch New York/Asia and for which program?

 

[itsmazhar]

@Lolo: Sorry ..congrats to you

 

[jacqinvan]

I also got an interview for MFA/MBA program. Probably have to do a phone interview since I'm in Asia (but I'm applying to NYU in NYC). Does anyone know if phone interview impair the chance of getting in?

 

[Lolo]

Interview is for the MBA/MFA program in NYC. I am currently in Shanghai. Am trying to make a trip to NYC for the interview but might have to do it over the phone.

FYI: My portfolio submission was for my work on a short film www.goodbyeshanghai.com.

 

[newmantopia]

Lolo, that film was phenominal!! Congrats on your interview and best of luck.

Can I ask how old you are?

 

[Lolo]

I'm 30 (1980).
