Lucasfilm Ltd.

Story Group Intern

June - September 2022 • Burbank, CA

What I liked

I enjoyed having the resources of learning the different moving parts that make up the entertainment industry, as Northwestern does not teach its students on this topic. I mostly enjoyed being surrounded by the people I worked with and communicated with on a daily basis. Everyone is very welcoming, helpful, and supportive of each other's opinions, interests, and endeavors.

What I wish was different

I wish Disney had more programming within their different lots. I was at the Burbank lot with studios like Marvel, Animation, and Disney Motion Pictures. The programming would've been helpful meeting new interns and learning more about the different possible roles in this industry.

Advice

Take advantage of the resources that you have while you're there. Everyone has been in the industry for several years so have extremely valuable experiences, advice, and networks. Because Disney owns Lucasfilm, you'll have access to the entire Disney network from Marvel to National Geographic.
