Read over our FAQ to see if TXI is the right fit for you

The Application Process

The TXI Application is divided into 3 sections. Let us walk you through them:

#1: Create an experience using the prompt: Who Are You?

We want to get to know you and what type of creator you are. This part of the submission is a creative experience that introduces you to us. Let us learn more about you.

• What is your story? How do you invite us into your story?
• What is its feeling? Does the project incite... Love? Excitement? Fear?
• How can you share that emotion with us?

Create it however you want. Any media is fair game but it must be immersive.

Overall… consider how you create something that is…

• Intimate. Make your experience personal. Evoke emotion.
• Interactive. Your piece should offer us agency, and allow us to participate with your story.
• Experiential. Challenge your submission to use the 5 senses! Consider the merging of physical and digital.

If you need inspiration, come by the TXI Lab or reach out to the TXI community!

• Ask away in the #apply-to-txi channel.

#2: Video Interview 

Create a 2-3 min video of yourself answering the following questions.

• State your name, major, and if you’re a graduate or undergraduate student.
• What does "immersive" mean to you?
• Why are you applying to Texas Immersive?
