Wildlife Conservation Filmmaking Internship in South Africa

The 28-day Wildlife Filmmaking Internship program is designed for people who want to immerse themselves in the world of wildlife filmmaking while experiencing the incredible biodiversity, landscapes and wildlife of South Africa.

Based in Mossel Bay, along the spectacular Garden Route, the internship program combines classroom-based learning, practical filmmaking assignments, guided field excursions and an extended safari experience at a private game reserve.

Rather than simply taking participants on a holiday, Africa Media focuses on teaching them how to become better wildlife filmmakers.

Throughout the four weeks, participants are encouraged to develop their own style, understand the technical aspects of their equipment, recognize opportunities in the field, and learn how to turn individual content into meaningful visual stories.

The program is suitable for beginners, photography enthusiasts and aspiring professional filmmakers. No previous professional experience is required.

The emphasis is on experiential learning: participants learn by doing, with guidance and feedback from experienced wildlife filmmaking mentors.
