"I knew I wanted to work in the entertainment industry, but this internship gave me the push that I needed to actually get my career started."
Brian Pacek
Documentary/Nonfiction Production
"My first week I had a one-on-one meeting with the SVP of programming, which is amazing in and of itself. She then told me; 'There are no closed doors to you here, you'll get out of this internship exactly what you put into it.' That couldn't have been more true! I never dreamed I'd have so much access to the different departments of a network as an intern."
Victoria Fox
Children's Programming/Development
"There simply isn't a better program in the world for young people looking to break into this business. From beginning to end, the Academy Foundation puts you in the elite tier of aspiring industry professionals. And the connections I've made with my fellow interns will benefit me for years to come."
