Internship Program
CFC offers credit-only internships for area college students interested in learning more about the Connecticut film industry. This internship is a great opportunity for someone looking to learn about film production. While this is an office based internship, you will have the opportunity to interact with the crews of the films that are coming into the state to utilize the 30% tax credit. Students that are interested in applying for the internship should be hard-working, reliable and proactive. Internship are available for the fall and spring semesters as well as during the summer. Students must be available for the internship two to three full days a week. If you are interested in applying for an internship please submit your cover letter and resume to intern@ctfilmcenter.com.
Training
Connecticut Film Center has been at the forefront of workforce development in Connecticut. From the first days of the tax credit program, CFC was preaching the need for crew training programs. The State of Connecticut listened and the Office of Workforce Competitiveness commissioned CFC to develop a Production Assistant Workshop and a comprehensive Crew Training Program. The program was presented to the Governor and State Legislature in 2007, and was promptly funded. The first round, which began in July of ’08, was a resounding success with over 150 graduates. There will be additional training opportunities in 2009. Please visit the Training Program’s website at http://www.ctfilmworkforce.com.
