WHAT ARE WE LOOKING FOR?

We are seeking a talented student who is interested in pursuing a career in commercial post-production. This is an opportunity to work directly with our senior and assistant editors on client projects and to gain an in-depth knowledge of current post-production workflow and techniques. This intern will receive hands-on experience with post-production tasks that occur during the project lifespan. These tasks include: 

 

ROLE/RESPONSIBILITIES

 

  • Logging and organizing of incoming projects.
  • Conforming final mix + color and creating final deliverables.
  • Backing up and archiving of projects.
  • Management of data storage.
  • Performing editorial support tasks such as making string outs of shots, assembly edits, titles, and motion graphics.
  • If proven capable there will be opportunities to own full projects start to finish.
  • Serve as assistant editor for the project. 
  • Report to post producer and lead editor at all stages of the post-production process.
  • Execute revisions per company request.

REQUIREMENTS

  • Strong knowledge of Adobe Premiere and AfterEffects
  • Motivated self-starter skilled in multitasking, time management, and organization.

  • Proficient in Google Suite and experience working in Adobe design applications.
  • A willingness to multitask and the ability to prioritize to-do lists.
  • Calm and deliberate demeanor within a highly dynamic, fast-paced environment.
  • Sense of humor


This candidate should be a self-motivated, tech-savvy, video junkie that has a passion for process and an eye for detail. We are seeking grit over experience and humility over ego. This is an opportunity to grow your experience and technical know-how in all things editorial in a fast-paced production environment and build a commercial portfolio. We understand that many filmmakers are interested in both editing and production and we do provide experiences in production for post-department interns as well.
