Home Movie Collection Intern, Film Archive - Summer 2020 (Academy Gold) 

Description

Summary:

The Academy Film Archive considers home movies of southern California to be primary source documentation of our region’s rich history, and this project-based internship will entail the processing of largely anonymous home movie collections—from inspection, research and identification, to the creation of archival records.

 

You can expect to gain experience in the everyday workings of a film archive, be introduced to our cataloging and collection management systems, and develop skills in how to properly handle and inspect film and video material.

 

Responsibilities:

  • Film handling, inspection and cataloging of small gauge film.
  • Additional research and identification of archival content as needed.
  • Assist in the creation and content review of newly digitized home movie files.
  • General support to other archive projects as they come up.
 
Position Requirements
  • Currently enrolled in an undergraduate or graduate program in archiving, film studies, library and information studies, moving image studies, or other conservation-related programs.
  • Exhibit an interest in the film industry, specifically in moving image conservation and preservation.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills.
  • Willingness to engage in other department activities related to records management, preservation, and collection services.
