Supplemental Essay Submission

Your Creative Journey

Why am I writing this? As indicated by the results of your assessment, your background may be non-traditional or self-taught. We believe that standard surveys can’t always capture the full scope of a creative mind. This is your opportunity to “fill in the blanks” and show us how your prior experience aligns with our curriculum.

The Assignment: Please write a response (approximately 500-1000 words) addressing the prompt below. Do not focus on the experience you lack; focus entirely on the skills and creativity you have.

Essay Prompt: Tell us the story of your unique path to this program. Your essay should cover three key areas:

  1. Your Passion: What drives you to create?
  2. Your Toolkit: What techniques or software have you taught yourself?

Your Creations: Describe specific projects you have completed that demonstrate your readiness for The Los Angeles Film School.
