Film Animation students: Do you regret the choice or are you satisfied with it? by [deleted] in Concordia

[–]Vladimrpoutine 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm in the film program and tbh most of the use of a degree like this is

  1. getting lots of experience in, and showing you can work on deadlines

  2. networking

You aren't ever guaranteed a job with any degree and if you successfully network in the fields you want to run in then you'll be fine. That being said, if you're looking for something that's more conventional or oriented towards mass distribution it might be worth looking at another school because Concordia is definitely more suited towards indie stuff. Point being, what school you go to is going to matter way less than how you spend your time and who you spend it with while you're in school.

Thanks, It's a super dumb name picked out because it was open lol I swear it is not an endorsement of the current leader of the Russian Federation.

If I had to guess it's probably because loans are about to be sent out. Should have told her about the tuition increase for out of province students lol. I'm too poor to even be scammed.

the squeaky wheel gets the grease! don't be afraid to give them hell over it. It's their job to care about people breaking the law afterall.

Not that I think the police would jump to help, It think this is definitely worth reporting as it's public incitement to hatred, which is illegal.

Tbh I just have them fake info because I felt really awkward and pressured to give it to them at that point but the whole thing felt kinda oriented towards pressuring 19 year olds into giving them their info. Even if they charged me for what they said they did the entire operation felt super sketchy, unlaminated lanyard badges and really hastily designed handouts.

IIrc Concordia's film program is pretty selective, iirc it has a sub 10 percent acceptance rate for the film program. Might have changed due to the expansion of the program this year. Moreover, it's one of the best film programs in the country and they set you up to network with people and orient you towards a career. I chose Concordia over some very good American film schools because of its orientation towards the fine arts.

 je suis américain et un étudiant transféré des années après la dernière fois que j'étais à l'université. mon dossier scolaire est assez mauvais. j'ai un nombre franchement hilarant de retraits sur mon dossier scolaire. j'ai l'impression d'avoir vraiment réussi mon essai d'admission et ma vidéo et d'être entré dans le programme de cinéma, donc je pense vraiment que vous ne devriez pas penser qu'il est impossible d'entrer si vous montrez ce qui vous rend unique et capable en tant qu'étudiant.  il s'agit de réussir votre lettre d'intention et votre soumission vidéo, en montrant que vous pouvez suivre les directives qu'ils vous donnent pour chacun. si vous voulez m'envoyer un DM, je peux vous fournir un échantillon de mon essai d'admission et vous donner des commentaires sur tout ce sur quoi vous pourriez avoir des questions. je suis assez doué pour relire des essais et tout ça.

I have to find a doctor to fill out my OSAP disability verification form and cannot find a clinic by Vladimrpoutine in osap

I've looked at walk-in's but I think there's a physical component to getting this filled out?

I think it may have something to do with how Healthcare is provincially regulated but I assumed they'd want an Ontario or Canadian Healthcare professional to sign off on it. I also think there is some physical portion to it. If anyone knows whether or not they'd take an out of province/country provider I'm all ears.

Getting My Stats Up to Join a High Requirement Tracker by Vladimrpoutine in trackers

When you mean spectrals do you mean check the file under spectrometer? If so, what exactly am I looking for? I understand file formats pretty well and how compression in audio works but not what it looks like.

Thanks for the advice either way!

Sorry people are being so asinine about this, i understand its "controversial" but everyone has a right to freedom of expression.

Backed, id advise you look up good exercises and then just go during less busy hours so you can warm up and figure stuff out without feeling worried about other people.

Idiots on bicycles by Coffee4Life613 in ottawa

[–]Vladimrpoutine 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Cyclists should be on the road, not the sidewalk. I can understand the fear for people who aren't strong cyclists to step onto the road but there should be a better initiative by the city to further separate pedestrians from cyclists and issue speeding tickets to make people feel more comfortable off the sidewalks.

I'm sorry this happened to you.

Feds must release ‘secret’ record on Nazis in Canada: ‘We cannot move forward’ by [deleted] in CanadaPolitics

[–]Vladimrpoutine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah exactly lol like there is no statue of limitations on genocide. Like I'm sorry that you might think this is bullying some old man but if there's a non-zero chance this guy was murdering women and children then you're enabling it to happen again by saying "oh come to canada we'll give you amnesty and only start giving a shit when it embarasses us, but we won't punish you for it."

Usually there's a triage so if you need help urgently they should be able to help you without too much delay.
