Successful film careers often start with an internship. Internship opportunities can be found throughout the industry: in development, production, broadcasting, distribution, editorial, and casting. As an intern, you’ll get the chance to apply your knowledge in real world settings, make professional contacts, learn advanced skills in your field, and build a resumé for future jobs.
At UCA, we are passionate about helping students connect with internships that will advance their creative and career goals. We have strong relationships with companies in Central Arkansas, Los Angeles, New York, Atlanta, New Orleans, Memphis, and beyond. Internships may be paid or unpaid, and they are registered classes that count toward an elective credit within the major.
The film program offers support in finding and applying for internships. Interested students should attend an informational meeting the semester before they intend to intern. Application and information documents are below.
