USC - MFA Film Production - Fall 2012

Longtime lurker, but figured I'd finally chime in with some good news. Got an e-mail saying I'm waitlisted for the fall semester and accepted for the spring semester. It's a great feeling.

For all of you still waiting, there's plenty of time left so hang tight! And for those of you with acceptances, congrats! Looking forward to meeting future classmates.

Edit: For reference, I'm finishing up my undergrad right now. Didn't have an interview.
 
Congrats dinos, Skinner, Che Gray, and the many others who have been accepted into the program either in Fall or Spring!

Also, great work all of you on your Vimeo pieces. I'm almost embarrassed to show mine haha.
 
@tsroach Yeah I'm from Indiana as well. I've been Hammond Indiana (which is in Northwest Indiana) for the past 7 or 8 years. I'm transferring from Purdue University Calumet. It's a smaller satellite campus of Purdue University.

How about you?

I recently got my acceptance e-mail as well for Fall 2012. This was my 5-minute short: Red Light (short film)

Looking forward to seeing you guys soon!

Wow! I can see why you were accepted! Loved the short! Can fully relate to that male character haha. Congrats!

OH man great work everyone!! I'm now really excited to learn and share with all of you in the very near future! Here's mine Search... Please critique!

Hopeful Filmmaker.... I assume in the next coming months. Don't quote me on this but at the SCA Financial Aid webinar I "attended" they said somewhere around May.

Also, I'm so happy to see that more and more of the "lurkers" and non-lurkers are getting acceptance e-mails. YAY!
 
CheGray= I was hooked from the beginning shots. Great Work!

Skinner= Happy is definitely one of my favorites. Are you thinking of going into documentary filmmaking?

Kemino= I really hope you hear back from USC. I really like your stuff. Especially the CUs I'm such a fan of them.

Tsroach= Speechless...I was astounded.
 
@mrselfdestruct Yeah, lived in Indy my whole life. While I love my experience at Butler, and these past couple years have been great (esp. with the basketball team) just sometimes wish I'd have taken this step earlier haha.

Even though I've not herd anything back, I guess I can show some of my vimeo stuff. Lots of feedback is welcome, as I know I need to develop my work much more.

@mexicanafilm Thanks! I'm thinking about documentaries...also sound. As a musician I think sound is extremely important. We shall see. Everyone has such great work! I'm really excited to meet and work with everyone. I'll be in LA in three weeks for a job if anyone is interested in meeting up.
