This position is ideal for those interested in pursuing careers as producers, writers, and/or executives — you must love reading, have strong analytical writing skills, and a passion for diverse & inclusive storytelling. 
 

Proximity's mission is to bring audiences closer together through stories involving often-overlooked subject matters and we are proud to be an equal opportunity employer. We welcome and consider applicants for employment regardless of race, color, religion, age, sex, national origin, citizenship, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, marital status, pregnancy status, military/veteran status, disability, or any other protected category. 

However, please note that we only accept applicants who are undergraduate juniors, seniors, and graduate students. We are also extending the application to those who have graduated within the last six months. Applicants not fitting the aforementioned requirement will not be considered. Previous internship experience is preferred but not required. 

Responsibilities include but are not limited to script coverage, industry research, watching films, ad-hoc administrative support, special projects related to our slate, and participation in company-wide staff meetings. Interns will have the opportunity to develop an original film/TV pitch to deliver to Proximity executives at the end of the internship, and also meet with industry professionals throughout the semester for wide-ranging insight into the filmmaking and development process. 

This is a paid, part-time, in-person internship in Burbank, CA. Interns will work up to 24 hours per week and must be in the office on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 9:00am - 6:00pm. Interns can choose to work remotely on Mondays, Wednesdays, or Fridays. If a holiday falls on a working day, interns may make up the hours on an alternate day. The program will tentatively begin on August 25, 2025 and end on December 5, 2025.

The deadline for the application is July 21, 2025 at 7:00pm PST. No late applications will be considered. Due to the volume of submissions, only selected applicants will be contacted for next steps.
