Part Time Unpaid Internship
Gigantic Pictures, an independent film and documentary production company located in Chelsea, is looking for dedicated, fast-learners interested in both narrative and documentary films who want to obtain first-hand, practical experience in the industry. As part of Gigantic, you will be working in a close-knit office, directly assisting producers Jason Orans and Pamela Ryan, as well as the rest of the Gigantic staff.
Gigantic Pictures works with a small group of interns who we aim to equip with the practical knowledge and skills required for many entry-level film jobs, as well as those that can be applied to their own work. Each intern's experience is unique as we try, whenever possible, to focus your projects on each individual's interests, current abilities, and future aspirations. However, some of our more general tasks range from creative projects to covering phones and the front desk, completing research and script coverage, and assisting in necessary runs. In addition to working alongside the heads of Gigantic Pictures, interns also support our writers, directors, and outside collaborators.
The internship will run from mid-September through the end of December. We're in need of someone available on Monday and either Wednesday, Thursday, or Friday, for a minimum of two days a week. This is a part-time, unpaid internship. We offer college credit, but it is not required.
What We're Looking For: We look for strong writing and analytical skills that will be employed while crafting executive summaries, letters and script coverage for our head of development. Organization and troubleshooting skills are a must! Though film experience is a plus, this is a great opportunity for those who have little to no background in film but do possess a great attitude, are eager to learn.
