Key Duties & Responsibilities:
  • Edit short videos using APA-provided footage, graphics, and audio

Expected Learning Objectives & Professional Advancement Opportunities:
  • Strengthen storytelling skills by transforming interview footage and research-based content into clear, engaging, and audience-centered narratives
  • Apply principles of digital media production to optimize video content for web and social media platforms, including pacing, formatting, and audience engagement strategies
  • Build collaboration and communication skills through iterative feedback cycles with cross-functional teams in a mission-driven organization
  • Gain experience in media asset management, including organizing, archiving, and maintaining video content for efficient production workflows

Required Qualifications:
  • Ideal Candidates Are:
    • Students studying Film, Television and Digital Media, Art and Design, Journalism, or Recording Arts and Production
    • Proficient in video editing software (e.g., Adobe Premiere Pro)
    • Comfortable working with audio, B-roll, and interview footage
    • Organized, communicative, and open to feedback
  • Preferred Skills (Not Required):
    • Experience with motion graphics or animation
    • Familiarity with captioning and accessibility standards
    • Interest in educational or nonprofit media
  • We are currently only accepting applications only for interns who are (1) in graduate school [Master's or PhD], (2) able to receive academic credit from their school for their internship; (3) able to commit to a full year [September 2026-May 2027]; and (4) living/working in an APA-approved state (Internships at APA).
  • Enrollment at an APA Internal Internship Program academic partner institution (Howard University, Montclair State University, or University of Virginia) is required.
