Internship areas of Focus:

Assistant Editor / Post Production Intern
Interns may receive supervised exposure to post-production workflows, including footage organization, syncing audio, preparing selects, creating string-outs, media management, project organization, and multi-cam workflow basics.

Sound Design Intern
For students interested in production and post-production sound, including dialogue cleanup, sound effects, Foley, sound editing, music placement, and basic sound mixing.

script coverage / Screenwriting / Screenplay Development Intern
For students interested in screenwriting, script analysis, story development, and the creative process behind film and television projects. Interns may assist with reading scripts, writing coverage, developing loglines, creating character breakdowns, giving notes on structure and dialogue, researching comparable films, proofreading drafts, and supporting the development of feature films, short films, TV pilots, documentary treatments, and pitch materials.

Documentary Intern
For students interested in documentary storytelling, social impact media, and non-fiction filmmaking. Interns may gain supervised educational exposure to documentary research, archival organization, interview selects, transcription review, story development, editing support, and documentary sequence assembly.
