Good story!!!! The other stuff backs it upAnyone know how good your short films need to be to be good enough to be accepted at a film school? some examples of films submitted to enter a film school would be good.
Do you need a really good camera, good actors and really good lighting?

The way I see it is that you just make a short film. Demonstrate your passion and interest through the short film. I would think they wouldn't expect your film to look like Spielberg's or anything.
BTW, I'm in the same boat as you. Have to make a five minute short and/or a 30+ page screenplay. I could just do the screenplay, but I really want to get in this school.
Good luck bud.
Thats what I'm aiming for, a BA degree and then maybe an MA.I'm not actually applying to a Film School yet, I was just curious.
I've looked at the prices and I'm shocked! I had no idea it would be that much!
I think I might have to take the university route instead.
On another note, do you guys know if a university degree in film and moving image production(or something similar) is good enough to get an entry level job in the film industry?
This made me chuckle. You make it sound like making the short would be more challenging, or show more ability/potential, than writing a screenplay. Writing a GOOD screenplay really is much harder than most people think.Have to make a five minute short and/or a 30+ page screenplay.

Well, Hunter is part of the City University so their tuition is much, much less ($195/credit versus $1200/credit at Columbia).NYU, Columbia, SVA, NYFA, Hunter.
All NYC film schools, no need for a film to get in. Just really good grades and $200,000 for a 4 year tution
