Program Details
Interns play a significant role at Bunim/Murray Productions, and as a result, Bunim/Murray Productions has designed a full-time and part-time internship program for college and graduate students who have an interest in television production. Bunim/Murray Productions also has a limited number of positions available for business administration, accounting, finance, human resources and marketing majors. Interns selected must find his/her own housing and arrange for his/her own transportation in Los Angeles (suggestions and recommendations will be provided to all candidates selected for the program.) All Bunim/Murray Production Internships are unpaid and those selected must be able to receive academic credit at a college or university. Interns are provided with a valuable experience through exposure to television pre-production, post-production and business processes. The program lasts for approximately 14-15 weeks (with the exception of the Summer program which runs approximately 8 weeks) and interns must commit a minimum of two full days a week (8 hours each day for 16 hours minimum a week.) During the first half of the program, interns will have the opportunity to rotate throughout various departments (unless an intern is in a business area, in which they will remain in one department.) After the initial period, the intern will then choose where they would like to be assigned for the remainder of the internship. Some of our departments include: Casting, Story, Editing, Pre-production, Production, Post Production, New Show Development, Business Development, Accounting/Finance, Human Resources, Legal, and Digital Media. Some projects interns have worked on in the past include: observing and working with off-line editors, compiling scripts from the Director’s notes for the Story Department, reviewing music to be used in future episodes, developing material for Bunim/Murray websites, handling the distribution of fan mail, reviewing and sorting casting applications, and MUCH more....
