Internships

Are you interested in learning new skills? Are you creative? Are you a people person? Do you want to make a difference in your community?  

NCM has several types of internships one can apply for. Our internships include projects, workshops, and hands-on learning. The requirements for these internships are:

  • You must be 14 years & older

  • Must be able to work 6-12 hours per week

  • Must be willing to give a 9-12 month commitment

  • Must live in Nevada County

  • All candidates go through an interview and evaluation process

  • Interns perform a variety of operational tasks around the facility (cleaning, office work, etc.)

  • Interns learn through assignment of a variety of hands-on pre-designed projects

  • Interns are given additional opportunities for work to expand their learning experience

  • Interns can attend all workshops at no charge

  • Interns must be able to lift 40lbs, operate production equipment for up to 2 hours, work on their own as well as part of a team, take direction, communicate with others, and have a desire to learn.

  • Our Video Journalism/Filmmaking interns must have transportation. Some of the projects are not in the studio. All other projects are at the NCM studio.

  • Individuals seeking employment must go through a three month internship

  • Internships are unpaid (unless through another programs)

  • The NCM internship is a fast paced program with tight turn-arounds. We do build in time for learning, but interns are required to meet the expectations to deliver quality content to the community in a timely manner.

Summer or Senior Project Internships

This internship is just like our regular internship program (above), except it is condensed into a few months and requires individuals to have some video, media, or journalism skills prior to entry. This is a great program for those wishing to improve their skills or to get a head start for our regular internships. Individuals looking to do a senior project are encouraged to contact us early in the school year.

  • For ages 14 & older

  • 8-16 hours per week

  • Minimum 6 week commitment
