MEDIA INTERN

Media Interns will be required to fill out an application to be considered for many areas of internships within the department. Interns will be given responsibilities for specific projects, such as photography for our classes, film shoots, logo creation, etc.

They will work directly with the Directors to create a cohesive ‘brand’ for our events, from marketing and promotion to media shown during the event itself. Media Interns will be able to receive credit towards future classes as outlined on our Internship page…
