This is an ongoing opportunity for undergrad or graduate students. Projects vary by season. You can always create a project of your own that is in the public interest.
Whether your interest is tv, film, graphics, video-production or business, we may have just what you need to meet your personal goals. We identify the applicants’ skills development goals or “reel” interests before going forward together.
Each applicant is matched to what we know is available among our various projects. We try to support the applicant’s best time of day or evening availability. Some assignments can be done remotely. Most Interns work with us concurrently with other nonprofits, civic or performance projects.
