Puzzling phrase

One of the most telling things about film school was that there were a lot of students wandering around. They said, “I wish, I were in a production class. I can’t get in that class. I can’t make a movie.” The first class I had was an animation class, not a production class. They gave us one minute of film to put into the animation class.

I don't understand the underlined phrase.
I looked it up in the dictionary but I still could not make of the meaning
I would appreciate it if you could paraphrase the last sentence?

I don't know anything about film schools, but it seems to me that if I'm given one minute of film to put into a class, then the teacher expects me to use it to make a film that lasts a minute. CJ
