The ideal candidate is analytical, curious, organized, and interested in learning how film projects are positioned, financed, and developed for the marketplace.
What You Will Gain
By the end of the internship, the student will have hands-on experience contributing to a professional entertainment business plan and financial strategy for an original feature-film project, with exposure to the development and financing process behind a potential horror franchise.
This is an excellent opportunity for students seeking practical experience beyond the classroom and looking to build a portfolio demonstrating business, financial, analytical, and entertainment-industry skills.
