And we're looking for an intern to work with Campfire’s Non-Fiction Development team for the Fall Semester of 2026!

This is a hands-on position in which you’ll assist the Campfire team (plus our Directors and Creative Producers) across our current slate of projects, both in development and greenlit. You’ll play a role in every step of the development process and learn what it takes for films to get financed before the cameras start rolling. We're looking for a detail-oriented applicant with strong writing and organizational skills who is a master at Google Drive/G-suite applications, enjoys brainstorming/evaluating new ideas, loves going down extensive research rabbit holes, and has a passion for all things unscripted/non-fiction!

This is an unpaid position and must be taken for school credit, though the exact start and end dates of the internship are flexible and can match your school quarter/semester schedule. A laptop is required. Our dog-friendly office is located in Santa Monica, CA, and candidates must be able to work in the office as needed. Schedule and hours are flexible and can be determined based on availability, but candidates must be able to commit a minimum of 16 hours/week to the internship.
