How does admission work?

The parallel admission process at Cinécréatis takes place in several stages. It all starts with a pre-registration process, in which the applicant describes his or her background and motivations.

The school then asks for various documents, such as

  • school reports ;
  • results for the current year
  • the programme of the course followed
  • an artistic portfolio.

The portfolio plays an important role, enabling applicants to present their personal projects, creations and audiovisual experience.

Once the application has been studied, a motivational interview is organised on the chosen campus. This is an opportunity to assess the coherence of the applicant’s career plan, their motivation and their interest in the film industry.

Admission then depends on the level of the application and the number of places available in the desired specialisation.
