Providence Pictures is seeking interns to assist in the research and development stages of new projects and those currently in production, developing and implementing new internet/social media strategies, and general production assistance. Candidates should be creative, energetic, and interested in contributing to the development of documentary based work. The more you put in, the more you get out. Innovation and fresh ideas are our most valuable resource. Whatever your idea, be it a graphic style, line of research, organizational technique, anything at all … we encourage you to bounce it around. Mac proficiency is required. Some background and interest in archaeology, history, religion, environment science, or evolutionary biology would be helpful.
