三、角色动画申请要求
1.注意事项
在申请之前，请务必熟悉角色动画的相关课程、教师、设施、课程和学生作品要求。请注意，您必须完成所有招生要求以及考虑录取的作品集要求。
该角色动画制作程序支持动画专注于角色发展和叙述故事。教师招生委员会寻求证明具有强大的创造性生活绘画技巧，艺术创意以及使用连续图像来讲故事和发展角色的潜力的证据。委员会重视艺术作品，展现独特和富有想象力的声音，展示申请人的艺术兴趣和概念能力。我们欢迎各种创意作品，包括绘画和其他传统艺术品，2D数字艺术和计算机图形(CG)。
请仔细阅读下面列出的具体作品集要求。与作品集有关的问题可以发给加州艺术学院招生办公室，我们也鼓励申请人通过自己的创造性探索和反思寻找问题的解决方案。角色动画节目是一个为期四年的节目。由于课程的高度顺序性，所有学生都以BFA1(一年级本科)水平入学。转学生请查看我们的转学分政策。转移课程可能会减轻学生的学术课程负担，但是，他们不会缩短就读的时间。

Drawings should be from observing real life, exploring elements such as shape, form, contour, contrast, ambiance, and mood.

Do not submit traced pictures or copies of work by others.

请注意，电影导演节目需要三封推荐信。
3.硕士课程面试MFA Interviews
Applicants who have passed the preliminary selection process will be notified in mid-February. At that time, candidates will be invited to visit CalArts in March for an interview day to meet faculty, staff, students, and fellow shortlisted applicants. The interview is required of invited applicants and is an important component of the final selection process. Video chat interviews are available in exceptional cases; however, attendance at the in-person interview day is preferred. In addition to giving the faculty a better sense of who you are, it gives you an opportunity to see the school, and meet and talk to many members of the CalArts community.
已通过初步甄选流程的申请人将在二月中旬获得通知。届时，考生将被邀请于3月份访问加州艺术学院进行面试并与教师和学生会面。面试是受邀候选人的必要条件，也是最终选拔过程的重要组成部分。特殊情况下可以进行视频聊天面试，但是我们希望强调进行面对面面试作为申请过程的一部分对于未来学生的重要性。此外，它还让你有机会看到学校并与教职员工见面并交谈。
4. 作品集提交指南Portfolio Guidelines
In order for your portfolio to be seriously considered by the faculty reviewing your work, it is important to follow these guidelines. Please read through the requirements carefully, and direct any questions to your Admissions Counselor.The Film Directing Program is interested in your sense of storytelling and will consider applicants both in the beginning stages of filmmaking as well as more experienced directors. We are more interested in your capacity to tell an engaging story, and your eagerness to learn, than we are in your technical prowess at this stage. You should submit your best, most recent work that is exemplary of the direction in which you’d like to take your practice.Your portfolio must be submitted through the online portfolio website SlideRoom. Use the same email address for both the online application and SlideRoom. Any materials that are not uploaded as part of your SlideRoom portfolio will not be considered as part of your application. Please make sure your videos play properly, and proofread your writing. All work submitted in a language other than English must be subtitled.
为了让您的作品集得到教师审查您的工作的认真考虑，遵守这些准则非常重要。请仔细阅读相关要求，并将任何问题提交给招生顾问。
电影导演课程对你的讲故事的能力十分感兴趣，我们会考虑申请人在电影制作的开始阶段以及更有经验的导演。我们更感兴趣的是你在这个阶段的能力，比我们在技术实力方面讲述一个引人入胜的故事和你渴望学习的能力。你应该提交你最好的，最近的作品，这是你想要练习的方向的典范。
您的作品集必须通过在线作品集网站SlideRoom提交。在线申请和SlideRoom 都使用相同的电子邮件地址。任何未作为SlideRoom作品集的一部分上传的材料将不被视为您的申请的一部分。请确保您的视频正确播放，并校对您的作品。所有以英文以外的语言提交的作品必须有字幕。
5.作品集要求Portfolio Requirements
Please submit the following three items as individual movie files, do not submit a composited reel. Label each uploaded item with the title, date completed, and running time. Click here for information about file sizes and types.
Narrative Directing Sample – 5 minutes or less
Submit a 5-minute example of narrative cinematic work you have directed. If your piece is longer than 5 minutes, do not submit the full piece. Create a stand alone 5-minute excerpt of the section you want us to see and include a link to the full length version in the description. Submissions should NOT take the form of movie trailers, compilations, or showreels.
Storytelling – 2 minutes
Record yourself telling a true story on-camera. The story must be based on a personal experience that was particularly important to you. Think carefully about your story before you tell it, but please do not script, read, or perform it. Emphasis is on the content of the story and your natural ability to tell it. The recording will not be reviewed past 2 minutes.
Artistic Portrait/Personal Essay – 2 to 3 minutes
A short cinematic work about you as an artist. The Film Directing Program explores the elastic boundaries of narrative cinema and looks to see aspects of your work you feel is not represented elsewhere in your portfolio. This is an opportunity to demonstrate your creative ideas beyond your more formal work sample. This piece can include visual materials such as photography, drawings or designs, music or sound pieces, performances you’ve participated in, or other film work. All work included by be must be created by you. This piece, like the narrative example, should not take the form of movie trailers or reels.
移动图像材料
请将以下三项作为单独的电影文件提交，请勿提交合成卷轴。为每个上传的课程标上标题，完成日期和运行时间。以下是了解有关文件大小和类型的信息。
叙事指导样本， 5分钟或更少
