PRODUCTION INTERNS
There are two internships available within the Production Department of KUED. In
recent years the KUED interns have worked extensively on documentary production for
national and regional broadcast. Experience in non-linear editing systems, video cameras,
computer graphics, data base management and advanced word processing is a distinct
asset.
The first position has an editorial emphasis, with the intern researching, writing, and
working with producers to create, manage and assemble content for long-format
television programs and other distribution platforms.
The second position will primarily focus on technical and craft aspects of long-format
television production, including field/studio/post audio and video production.
KUED is holding an intern fair at the Department of Communications Building (LNCO)
where interested students can find out more about these positions.
