Grand Examinations in our School. We document - see what happens between submitting application and receiving index of Lodz Film School.

/WE ARE UPDATING! SEE BELLOW/

Film School's index is a fulfillment of dreams for many, starting point on a path to becoming actor, director, animator, screenwriter, editor, director of photography, production manager, photographer. The month of June and July are reserved for meetings with them. Since this is enrollment – the meeting takes a form of exam – and each one is different – depending on the department. The candidates bring their works to School – photos, films, scripts – discussion over them and evaluation are part of the exam. There are exams evaluating skills in visual creation (animation), skills in using voice and movement (acting), there are writing tasks (screenwriting), a conversation about what is happening in film industry around the world (production).

Detailed information about general admission requirements for all departments can be found on School's website. https://www.filmschool.lodz.pl/en/studia/stacjonarne/2

As every year, the competition is intense. More than 100 students will be accepted to our school, there is at least a dozen applicants for one place (the record was set by Acting Department - 30 candidates for one place!).
