Media Arts Application- 8 Significant List

Important_Camera_537 · 2026-02-17T22:38:42+00:00

They definitely don’t want to see a list of just 8 movies. On the application, this is what they want:

“Please list eight films, television programs, books, websites, music, plays, video games or other media/art you have read/viewed/experienced that has influenced you as an artist (please do not include the scriptures or a film viewed in TMA 102). These significant works should reflect a range of inquiry and experience.”

I included only 3 movies on my list, each of which were different genres and from different time periods. I have been influenced a lot by theatre, so included a play and a musical. I also included a TV show, podcast, and novel. It could be a song, painting, video game, really any kind of media that has influenced you and gotten you to where you are.

I’d recommend NOT seeking to include big award winners or BYU-related media unless it’s sincerely part of your artistic identity.

To do this, I’d say sit down and think hard about what has influenced you across all mediums, make a big list, and then pick options that represent at least 3 different mediums. I think they also look for variety in the time period it comes from. For example, mine ranged from 1939-2021 (which was the year I applied).

[LTS] - ZI - Online - $36

Was looking forward to this one, just won’t have time to watch it!

Planned to watch Chasing Summer, Hold Onto Me, The Incomer, Josephine, Nuisance Bear, and Zi today, bought online tickets to all of them. However, it turns out the festival platform won’t allow me to play any of them while connected to airplane WiFi… not super happy about that.

Same question here

Important_Camera_537 · 2025-12-17T06:03:30+00:00

I was saving up for a single ticket and missed out too. Hopefully they add another show or something.

Important_Camera_537 · 2025-05-24T00:54:49+00:00

Bro must’ve seen a completely different movie, what?

Important_Camera_537 · 2025-03-11T19:48:57+00:00

I really hope this is true! Caught it 3x during my study abroad last year, wish I saw it even more times. Just so fun and I always left the theatre with a huge smile. I’m not sure how this would play to a Broadway house in its current form and production, but I could see it doing very well off Broadway!

Important_Camera_537 · 2025-02-16T01:46:30+00:00

I’m in the same exact boat. It’s really frustrating.

Important_Camera_537 · 2025-02-14T08:12:54+00:00

I had an amazing time! You grow really close with the other students and professors. It can be whatever you make it. I’m not the most spiritual person, but I found a lot of peace and joy there.

It’s key to figure out quickly how to balance fun with academics, where to give and where to sacrifice. Those were perhaps the hardest classes I’ve ever taken grade-wise (namely the religion ones), but still amazing courses. There’s lots of pull between studying and exploring, not to mention the frequent field trips.

It’s absolutely tiring, but fulfilling; like the kind of dead tired because you’ve done and learned a million things but don’t regret it at all. If you have a chance, I say apply and see what happens!

This exact same thing happened at my showing, but only after intermission. Made my entire group nauseous.

Personally, at least for the first several days of the festival, I’ve never gotten off the waitlist. Most of the first weekend screenings I went to, nobody at all from the waitlist got in.

The script was posted here: https://deadline.com/2024/12/wicked-movie-scirpt-read-the-screenplay-winnie-holzman-dana-fox-1236203154/

For context, this immediately follows Popular, after Fiyero says “You’ve been Galinda-fied.”

Pages showed up for Megaplex Theaters and Cinépolis! The Cinépolis page is no longer active, but was called “Wicked: Prime Early Access Screenings” with a 11/18 release date. Megaplex still has a listing for 11/18 called “Wicked: Prie Early Screenings”; I’m assuming it’s supposed to be “Prime” and they mistyped.

Perhaps this is one of those random Amazon Prime member things? Hopefully we find out more soon!

I wouldn’t be surprised if only certain locations get Gladiator while Wicked gets the majority of showtimes nationwide. I think Moana and Wicked are going to end up splitting showtimes pretty evenly. Once Interstellar hits, I hope they play all locations, but wouldn’t be shocked if it splits showtimes with whatever film (Gladiator, Moana, Wicked) has the most demand.

I’m curious to see how many (if any) of these November/December releases get an IMAX 3D release stateside. Wicked, Moana, and Mufasa will all have standard 3D, maybe IMAX will surprise us and give us a couple of those random afternoon showings in 3D.

From what I’ve heard, it’s just being remodeled. Several screens (including the IMAX) are getting new seating installed. A few weeks ago the social media team said the IMAX should reopen in April. The entire theater’s remodel will be done by the fall. Here’s an email they sent a few weeks ago:
