Internship and Film Referral Program

The Austin Film Society strives to provide up-and-coming film professionals with the skills, contacts, experiences and supportive environment needed, in order to break into the film industry.

To do so, we offer:

• unpaid office internship positions
  
• stipend apprentice positions
• referrals for feature-film crew positions
• workforce development and career services
  

Here's how our Internship and Film Referral Program works:

1. Every fall, spring and summer semester, we bring on a new class of 8 interns.
2. After having completed one semester at AFS, interns can apply to become apprentices to one of our staff members.
3. Apprentices who have completed at least two semesters at AFS can apply to become members of our Film Referral Program (FRP) through which we help place Internship Program graduates in jobs. So far, we've placed some 330 FRP participants in more than 180 feature film and media-arts related gigs.
