About the role
Production Intern – Public Affairs (3 months, preferably 12-15 hrs/wk) This is a hands-on position in which you will be directly involved in producing cable and web content right from the start. After initial training in all aspects of television production – including camera operation, audio, lighting, editing, reporting, writing, and more – you will assist in Public Affairs productions and collaborate with ACMi members and local organizations to produce further content. Your specific responsibilities will include online research, communicating with potential interview subjects, and executing both field and in-studio shoots.
We are looking for interns who are comfortable with technology, can transition smoothly between different tasks, and have solid communication and time-management skills. Interns will be directly supervised by ACMi's Public Affairs Producer, and other staff will be generally available as needed to provide support and consultation. At the end of your term, you will leave with a full reel of the various productions you contributed to, including what specific role(s) you took on in each of them.
