Insignia Films is seeking a New York based intern with an interest in film production, documentary development and journalism.
This is a great opportunity for students looking to get practical experience in long-form documentary film development and production. Interns will be involved with project research, production planning, assisting on set on production days, and assisting with post production & archival research, among other areas. We are also open to shaping the internship around your interests. For this spring semester specifically, we are looking for someone very interested in development.
Previous Insignia Films productions include the landmark PBS series The West and Reporting America at War, as well a four part series for PBS on American Veterans. In addition, we have produced Seabiscuit, Ailey, Red Heaven, Into The Canyon, and a four part series on veterans in America. We are currently in development on a number of projects, including one about a female Hungarian physicist who invented solar power and another depicting Luis Valdez's life. We also have several other projects in the works.
Interns will assist on a variety of post-production, development, research and administrative tasks. Interns are generally assigned to a specific movie, in which they will develop a particular set of responsibilities. Self-advocacy, attention to detail and diligence are key to a generative internship.
Interns are asked to commit to at least two full days per week. Insignia offers a daily stipend of $20 and course credit where applicable.
Applicants must be current undergraduate and/or graduate students. Recent graduates will, unfortunately, not be considered. Ideally, we are looking for someone who can start January 9th, 2023.
