Internship Program
As a CMCM intern, you will gain experience in a nonprofit TV station setting and
learn how PEG (Public, Education, and Government) Access Stations work for
the community. Please note that this is mainly a production internship, but it will
involve a wide range of tasks including some office and administrative
responsibilities. The internship will provide free training in studio production, field
camera production, Final Cut Pro editing, and equipment maintenance. Main
responsibilities include crewing on studio shows, assisting members with
questions, assisting with equipment maintenance, special projects and some
administrative tasks on an as-needed basis. After successful completion of the
internship program, interns receive an additional six months of free membership
and access to the facilities and equipment.
Basic familiarity with video production is highly preferred among internship
applicants. Candidates with a strong commitment to community media and a
demonstrated willingness to learn technical production techniques will be
considered. Candidates must be able to work and collaborate with a diverse
group of members.
Academic credit is available upon request, but the internship is not limited to
students.
