Assistant Editor Internship

Evolve Studios

Franklin, TN

Internship

Re-posted 16 days ago

Job description

We are looking for an Assistant Editor Intern to join our Film and TV post production team for a hands-on educational training internship focused on professional editorial support workflows.

This internship is designed for students interested in post production, editing, media management, and assistant editor work. Interns will begin within a controlled sandbox training project before supporting any active client work, giving them the opportunity to learn real-world AE workflows in a lower-risk, supervised environment.

Interns will gain exposure to the full post production support process, including media ingest, project organization, footage stringouts, ingest reports, Frame.io dailies links, transcriptions, captions, prep for color and mix, exports, deliverables, QC, and project wrap.

This is a great opportunity for someone who is organized, detail-oriented, curious about post production, and interested in learning how professional editorial teams move projects from footage intake through final delivery.

Educational Structure

This internship is structured as a learning-focused training experience. Interns will receive guidance, feedback, and supervision throughout the program. Any exposure to active client work will be limited, supervised, and based on the intern's training progress.

Completion of the internship does not guarantee future employment, though interns may be considered for future freelance or entry-level opportunities if there is a good fit and a business need.

Responsibilities

  • Learn professional post production workflows from ingest through delivery
  • Assist with media ingest and project organization within a training environment
  • Learn proper folder structures and file naming conventions
  • Create footage stringouts for review
  • Help prepare ingest reports and track project assets
  • Learn Frame.io dailies upload and review workflows
  • Support transcription and caption workflows
  • Learn basic prep steps for color, mix, exports, and deliverables
  • Support QC and project wrap/archive workflows
  • Follow internal post production processes and checklists
  • Communicate clearly when questions or issues come up
  • Participate in check-ins, feedback sessions, and workflow reviews

Qualifications

  • Current student studying film, media, production, editing, communications, or a related field
  • Interest in post production and assistant editor workflows
  • Basic familiarity with Adobe Premiere Pro preferred
  • Strong attention to detail and organization
  • Comfortable following technical instructions and checklists
  • Good communication and follow-through
  • Willingness to learn, ask questions, and receive feedback
  • Ability to maintain confidentiality around client and project materials

Time Commitment

10-15 hours per week preferred, with some flexibility based on school credit requirements and student availability.

The internship will be structured around a defined semester or training period and will take student academic schedules into consideration.

Location

Franklin, TN

Compensation / Credit

This internship may be eligible for academic credit depending on the student's school requirements. Students are encouraged to confirm credit eligibility with their academic department or career center.

Please note: this internship is designed as an educational training experience. Any compensation details, if applicable, will be confirmed during the application/interview process.

Application Materials

Please submit:

  • Resume
  • Short note of interest
  • Availability for the semester
  • Editing samples or reel, if available, but not required

About the Opportunity

This internship is intended to give students a practical understanding of how assistant editors support professional post production teams. The goal is to help interns build foundational AE skills, understand real-world post workflows, and gain experience in a supervised, training-focused environment.
