Artistic director and drama teacher seeks O-1A classification. Petitioner claimed eligibility under multiple criteria but established only one. Director found insufficient evidence of lead roles in distinguished productions and inadequate testimonials from recognized experts. Appeal dismissed as beneficiary did not meet minimum three-criterion requirement.

Production company petitions for O-1A visa for beneficiary as film producer and editor. Beneficiary lacks significant national or international award in field and has not demonstrated lead or starring roles in productions with distinguished reputation, failing to satisfy required evidentiary threshold for extraordinary ability in arts.

Production company sought O-1A classification for actor in motion pictures and television. Visa category is O-1B (arts/entertainment), not O-1A (sciences, education, business, athletics). Decision indicates O-1 classification but actor achievement in film falls outside O-1A scope. Classified as ineligible for stated visa category.

A dance studio sought O-1 classification for a competitive dancer, choreographer and coach under the arts standard. The AAO found the work was athletic, not artistic, and that the evidence met only one of the arts criteria. This is an O-1B arts-standard filing, so the appeal was dismissed.
