Intern - Documentary Production

This is a Part Time Unpaid Internship

Black Valley Films is looking for a part-time intern with a background in Film, Journalism, and/or Business to assist Academy-Award-nominated filmmaker, Scott Hamilton Kennedy.

This is a unique opportunity to learn about documentary production, funding and distribution from the ground up. You will gain exposure to production and post-production environments, as well as learn the business behind independent documentary filmmaking. The company is small, making it possible for you to work closely with the director himself and learn more about the company as a whole than you would at a larger entity. You will be an essential part of the team.

Responsibilities span from research, post-production workflow, fundraising, to general office/admin-related needs. Interns will also have the opportunity to manage our marketing campaigns via social media networks.

Requirements: Minimum 4-6 month (one semester) commitment, and a valid driver's license and reliable transportation for local candidates.

Qualifications:
Excellent verbal communication skills
Highly-organized
Research skills
Familiarity with Google Workspace and Adobe CC
Knowledge of macOS

Preferred, but not required:
Experience using social media platforms to promote events
Experience with cold calls/emails
Motion graphics or animation experience

LOCATION: Home office in the Los Angeles, CA, Silverlake area

HOURS: 3-days per week (schedule is flexible, roughly 24hr/week);
approx. 9:30am-6pm PST

This an unpaid internship; however, we offer college & professional credit.

Please submit a cover letter and resume with your application.
Thank you!
