Film School Application Videos



In class the other day, I had finished my project early so naturally, I went online and started looking at application videos students had sent to highly prestigious schools like USC, NYU, LMU, and many more. After looking at many similar videos for about 40 minutes or so, I stumbled across this one. I was immediately engaged when it started because of the mystery and suspense building in it, starting with the voice over. Towards the end of the video, I was practically in tears because of the emotion portrayed in it. Although it wasn't based on a true story, the story was still very realistic and spoke to me on a whole other level. The artist who created the video was accepted to all the schools he applied to, and it is very clear to me why. If you have time, I would highly suggest giving it a watch and letting me know what you think! I promise you won't regret it.

  1. The concept of this video is very captivating. I enjoy watching these application videos because it helps give me an idea of what colleges are expecting. The VFXs are pretty impressive for a high school student and the video was very pleasing to watch.

  2. This video was so good. I like how they took a real plot but added a fantasy idea to it. Also, I think the creator's use of effects really made the video so much more professional.

Last Blog Post

This is my last blog post for my senior year, so I'd like to say that I am so glad I took DMA classes throughout high school. I've learned so much and I wouldn't be where I am today without my experiences in the classes. I will be attending the Savannah College of Art and Design this coming fall and I couldn't be more excited. I'm thinking about majoring and working in the film industry, however, I will be pursuing all and any forms of art in the future as well. From a fellow artist: take the opportunities that you are given and work hard doing what you love.

Speed Painting

This a painting made in Photoshop by a guy who goes by the name " The Concept Painter " on Youtube. He does lots of Photoshop speed painting videos and also air brush videos. This particular painting took him 3.5 hours to complete and was made using a drawing tablet similar to the ones we use in our class.

Another Comic Book Artist (Woo!): Annie Wu

 If you have talked to me for more than one minute, I am a huge nerd. So, I am making another post about comic book artists. This time it's Annie Wu. She's a comic book artists who lives in Chicago, and is one of my inspiration artists for my sustained investigation. A lot of her work is dramatic with deep and dark lines with bold colors which is makes style perfect for where I first found her work. I first saw her work in the Black Canary book in 2017. Eventually, I will talk about Marvel comic book artists, but not today. If you want to check out more of her work, here is her website:  https://www.anniewuart.com/
