Reviews

Programming Intern

June 2020 - October 2020 Seattle, WA
“I loved how well-connected the team was even though we worked remotely! Watching hundreds of films and reading dozens of scripts was a fantastic way to spend the summer and has led me directly to my next internship in Spring 2021. Overall, the NFFTY team is so much fun and offered unique personal connections to filmmaker in a younger age category. ”
