Sending DVDs to Schools

<p>I was just wondering, when sending DVDs to schools, what is an appropriate length for the DVD? 3 minutes? 5 minutes? 10 minutes?</p>

<p>Thanks in advance for answering.</p>

<p>It varies by school.</p>

<p>It does indeed vary by school, but I’d go for 3-5 minutes. You want to get your idea across quickly without dragging it out and boring those watching. I’d check with the school though on an exact time range.</p>

<p>@Both of you :), thanks very much for replying.</p>

<p>What do applicants send dvds for? Is it to highlight ability in music or sports?</p>

<p>I would be sending mine in for music.</p>

<p>There are no guidelines on length. If your playing Tchaikovsky’s piano conerto 1 at the Lincoln Center, include the whole thing. Record in hidef with good sound conditions.</p>

<p>Short and sweet! If you can showcase your best in 2 minutes, do it.</p>

<p>What school are you sending them to?
Do you suggest that everyone make one?</p>

<p>I’m sending it to Andover, Exeter, Lawrencville, SPS, WRA, Groton, Deerfield, Hotchkiss, and some others too that I can’t remember.</p>

<p>I’d suggest making a DVD if whatever you’re showcasing is one of your main strengths. Otherwise, it’s not worth it.</p>

<p>What if i was into Sony Vegas, and i create a short anime trailer, would they accept it?</p>

<p>Ummmm, I’m not an admission officer, just an 8th grader, but i think if you have a passion for anime related stuff then sure why not?</p>
