- Film Credits - How to Format: If you choose to include film credits in your resume (we do not require them and do not want your resume to be exclusively film-focused), please be sure to include information about your role in the project. For a glossary of roles and responsibilities on a film set, please check out our reference page.
- Sample Resume: If you would like a sample of what a resume can look like, you may find one here. Please note that we do not require your resume to look exactly like our sample, nor do we expect your experiences to mirror Terry Tisch's. This sample is intended only as a visual reference; it is not prescriptive.
