Filmmaking Portfolio

Submitting a portfolio is a recommended but not required step in the admissions process for the Filmmaking major. Show us your passion, creativity, and storytelling skills by submitting a portfolio of compelling videos, screenplays, or visual art.

As a student applying to the Filmmaking (BFA) major you should be able to demonstrate an ability to portray an engaging story or idea through video, writing, or photography. Samples should highlight your passion, style, and point of view.

  • A video or movie upload that is up to five minutes in length or 120MB in size, OR
