<p>When I received my tour of USC, the person giving the tour explained that the university can accept you, but the school of your choice may choose to reject you, in which case you can still choose to go to USC’s general college, w/o a major intended. He seemed pretty confident that you cannot get rejected from USC, and still be admitted into your school of choice, and he was a Film/Business Major.</p>
<p>Have you received anything in the mail yet? I’m going crazy and I’m starting to believe that I didn’t make the cut, seeing as how I’m a transfer, and for other reasons. At this point I would love even an acceptance into the general college and take courses as a non-major, with the hopes of transferring later.</p>
<p>Also, do you know how to get the Facebook page that apparently has some students who were accepted? I heard there are some who got into the writing program, which means even less spots available. I’d like to size up who already got in.</p>
<p>The girl from my school that got in as undecided said she DID have the OASIS link, but didn’t know when it was last updated. just fyi. She’s still holding out for word from SCA.</p>
<p>I just learned that a group of applications are split up to several different readers. Maybe only one reading group finished their work you think? I was expecting more acceptances than this.</p>
<p>Roar- it is very strange. It may be likely that some acceptances were sent out on Friday and maybe some were sent on Monday… who knows. Literally no one got anything from SCA today…so something must be up. I doubt that so few CC production applicants would get in. We would hear somehow if someone got something though, so I doubt all 50 kids heard already. Supposedly the dean of SCA admissions said that we should all hear in the last week of March…so acceptances should be out this week.</p>
<p>Hmmm… peculiar. Did anyone hear about anyone being accepted today?</p>
<p>Enjoy! The second one is my most “experimental” work. I write/direct/edit and do vfx for all my films. I wouldn’t bother watching anything else on my vimeo account though, its all volunteer work and stuff for school. Let me know what you guys think!</p>
<p>edit- Btw, on vimeo, i recommend pressing play, then pausing immediately to let the vids both buffer completely before actually playing it.</p>
<p>My internet is crap so I’ve only seen the beginning, but it looks very professional. Much more so than any of the stuff I’ve played around with. The audio is pretty good, too. You don’t see that much with student films. I love film sound <3</p>
<p>Yeah, we had to recreate the entire sound of the location because there were too many variables. That was a hassle. Haha. I just wish USC let you send it video samples.</p>
<p>Unefemme- we generally shoot with a canon Xha1 and a letus extreme. The only lens we ever use is a Nikkor 50mm f1.4. Its beastly.</p>
<p>edit- yeah, but the version your watching online has some instances where its off. The “short cut” was the first version i posted online so that the actors could see it. The version that went out to fests isn’t online anywhere— its synced better.</p>
<p>roar2112- ohh. For PAIRED, we mainly recreated them in my kitchen. We couldn’t ever find a sound for the door opening… we tried everything. Eventually the sound guy and I were just going to go down to the laundromat and record the real sound until his phone went off and we realized it made the exact sound haha.</p>
<p>unefemme- Our school had literally no equipment until this year when we finally convinced the administration to get an XHa1 and two new iMacs with FCP studio. In return we had to create an important video with the new equipment for a school celebration. But the equipment used on my out-of-school films (like these two) belongs to myself and the crew. I dipped (and by dipped I mean dived) into my savings.</p>
<p>Haha, well in Texas, or at least in my school, most of our funding goes to football and our drill team. We do ALL the recording+editing and live video feed for all the major school events, and we hardly get a thank you. We had to majorly fundraise just to purchase two iMacs and FCP without the district’s help (haven’t gotten to touch those either! still using hunky PCs with Adobe Premiere Pro…)
Oh well! the program is continuing to expand, so hopefully we’ll start to get some support soon (it’s looking that way with AFI of Dallas, anyway )</p>
