3. Script (if longer than 20 pages, send a sample scene)
4. Website that you have designed or authored content
5. Original photography (please do not send originals; color copies are preferred)

As part of the portfolio requirements, an additional essay question must be completed. Respond to ONE of the following questions in a 500 word essay:

1. What do you think is the social significance of film in modern society?
2. How do you see technology as affecting visual means to tell a story?
3. What movie best portrays your world view and how does it accomplish this?
4. A crayon, a fishing rod, and a can of beer are being chased down the street by a bunch of muffins. Why? (This question can also be answered in a script format if your portfolio is NOT a script.)
