REVIEW/EDITORIAL WRITER Internship-Hybrid NY or LA UNPAID

mxdwn Entertainment

Alhambra, CA

Internship

Re-posted 18 days ago

Job description

Company Description

mxdwn is an online music and entertainment magazine with news, reviews and features about the latest and best in modern entertainment.

Job Description

This position is Hybrid based in both the Los Angeles and New York City areas.

If you live and breathe movies and love talking about movies, filmmaking, and storytelling, this is the place for you. Editorial writers are expected to be highly interactive with the critical conversation surrounding industry trends, pieces of movie news, and (especially) new and recent releases. 

We are a young and growing company, meaning there is lots of opportunity for your voice to be heard, but please note that this also means there is little to no budget. We do offer provide press access where we are able, but this is an UNPAID position. Reviews will only be expected for films to which we are able to provide access (we do not reimburse tickets). 

We Should Talk More If... 

  • You love movies and love talking about movies. 

  • You're excited by ideas and want to drive conversation surrounding movies and movie industry news. 

  • You have demonstrable writing experience, including experience reviewing movies. Please send us two samples or direct links to samples of your best work. Applications without writing samples will not be considered. 

  • You live in L.A. or New York and are generally able to attend screenings in the evenings. 

  • You're awesome at internet research and know how to find reputable information about anything in just a few minutes. 

  • You're familiar with the film industry as a whole and understand running industry trends. 

We'll Be Extra Excited If... 

  • You've worked in the film industry or have prior experience covering the movies. 

  • You know and/or are connected with a particular subsection of the film industry (like if you're the Lion King of all things Disney animation). 

  • You're familiar with things like Wordpress, Google Drive, Slack, and really basic HTML. 

  • You've got a track record of developing unique feature and opinion content. 

  • You can break down a movie and explain complex filmmaking decisions to a lay audience. 

Please tell us about yourself and submit a resume and two recent movie reviews or editorials with the subject line "Review/Editorial Writer" followed by the name of your favorite character from Star Wars so we know that you've read and understand all of the above posting and you are not a robot (although C-3PO and R2-D2 are still acceptable answers).
