PAID INTERNSHIP / FELLOWSHIP POSITION
DOCUMENTARY AND FEATURE FILM DEVELOPMENT POSITION WITH HEY JUDE PRODUCTIONS
The Smashcut Fellowship program accepting submissions for a PAID INTERNSHIP / FELLOWSHIP POSITION with Hey Jude Productions, where you will be working on several documentary and feature film projects currently in development.
If selected, you will be paid a stipend of $5,000 for a 12-week internship, plus a partial travel reimbursement.
Be sure to mention you heard about this from INFOLIST.com for priority consideration, as we have received great candidates from this list from past postings, and will give you special consideration!
Selected applicant will be working with award-winning filmmaker Dani Menkin on several documentary and feature projects currently in development. His film “39 Pounds of Love” (2005) has been sold to HBO, and was short listed for the Oscars. (Dani’s IMDb: https://www.imdb.com/name/nm1836981/)
The first project you will be working on is a documentary called “A Picture of His Life”, the story of Amos Nachoum, one of the greatest underwater photographers of all time. You can find more information about this project here:

The second project is a documentary called “Aulcie.” Aulcie Perry was the last player to be cut from the NY Knicks in 1976. He found himself playing for Israel. Aulcie, an African American, became a basketball legend in the little country following a big win against the Russians during the Cold War, bringing the first European Championship to Israel. You can find more about the project here:

This is a tremendous opportunity for the right candidate to work with an award winning filmmaker on several interesting projects.
This is LA based, so applicants MUST live in the Los Angeles area.

Indicate you are applying for the Paid Industry Fellowship with Hey Jude Productions in the “Notes” field, and be sure to mention you heard about this from Jeff Gund at INFOLIST.com in the “Referral” field of your application for priority consideration, and complete the online application at:

ABOUT THE PROGRAM:
The Smashcut Fellowship program places qualified applicants in paid three-month internships at productions companies of all sizes, TV writing rooms, digital media companies, on-set productions, and more. You read that right: paid. We help you cover your living and travel expenses.
Our hosts are also committed to being mentors. So while they may ask you to run through a brick wall on occasion, or merely pick up their lunch order, you will learn plenty about the business every single day on the job.
We offer a stipend of up to $5,000 to help you make ends meet while you are working hard to establish yourself. And, we will help cover your travel costs (if necessary).
During the program, you will also receive additional mentoring from the Taliesin Nexus staff, and if scheduling permits, you will attend our Apollo Workshop, absolutely gratis (if you haven’t already).
You also may be required to make a short film or write a screenplay in your spare time under the supervision of the program administrators.
To recap, interns will receive:
– Placement at a production company, a management company or agency, or even in a writing staff room
– A stipend of up to $5,000 or school credit
– Possible travel reimbursement
– Mentoring
– Automatic acceptance into the Apollo Film & TV Workshop
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Each fellowship will last for 12 weeks, and applicants must be committed to living and working in the required city of the internship during that period (You don’t have to live there now; we might pay for your travel there, and back home after it’s over.). We usually stagger our internships throughout the year, with some beginning in the spring, fall, and summer.
The perfect candidate for the program would be a recent film school graduate or someone with some writing or filmmaking experience and/or training, but not someone who has already enjoyed a substantial career (after all, this is an opportunity for those who haven’t had their real shot yet). You must have completed at least one screenplay or short film/video that you will include with your application.
If you are a current student (and over 21), you can earn school credit for participating in an internship.
Applicants should be able to demonstrate the following:
– a talent for, and knowledge of, filmmaking or screenwriting
– a tenacious commitment to succeed in the entertainment business
– the skill set to thrive in a production company environment
– a passion for a free society
Note: If you can receive university credit for your internship, let us know in the “Referral, Other Notes” section of the application form.
