The deadline for our fall internships has passed. The application for spring placement will be available in early fall.

Want to fly to LA and work on a feature film? Dig into a freedom-oriented, social issue documentary? Write side-by-side with a working Hollywood screenwriter or assist in the production of an upcoming television comedy? Maybe you’re more into CGI, animation or video game writing and development?

The Institute for Humane Studies Production Internship Program places interns in all these areas at industry majors and new, cutting-edge companies. Participants in our program typically receive:

• $2000 stipend for a ten week internship
• Housing and travel allowance
• Tuition and travel assistance for our career development workshop
• Free novels and academic works on economics, history, and philosophy
• Mentoring with working industry professionals
• Networking opportunities in major media centers: NYC, LA, and DC

The Production Internship Program runs year-round with three semester deadlines: Spring, Summer, and Fall. We offer positions as short as five weeks and up to twenty weeks at host firms. If you are currently in school, you can be considered for a part-time internship that would work around your courseload.

Opportunities in the film industry often arise irrespective of the university calendar, so to increase your options for placement; the best policy is to apply as soon as you know your availability.

Our online application makes applying quick and easy. After completing the short registration process, you can post your answers to our short essay questions and upload the required supporting materials.

Internships are available in major media centers across the United States. We accept interns of all ages and experience levels and international applicants are eligible.
