Young people (college age and up) who are interested in gaining work experience in the film industry are invited to consider working in a 5-month internship as part of the marketing and distribution team for the award-winning Bella, which was the top rated movie in the New York Times Readers Poll, Yahoo, Rotten Tomatoes, and Fandango sites and on Christmas Eve was rated the top Box Office sell-out in its category for the year 2007.

As Bella begins its release in international theaters and comes out on DVD on May 6th, interns will continue to be a crucial part of its success. The Bella Internship position provides young people the opportunity to work for a great cause while also interfacing with the producers, director, main actor, and/or the Bella marketing team in one of four locations: Hollywood, CA; West Palm Beach, FL; Philadelphia, PA, and Washington, DC. 

There are two internship cycles: from January 1st – May 31st, and from May 1st to September 30th.  All internship positions are unpaid, and the interns may work full or part-time in one of the main offices or remotely from home.

Types of Internship Positions

- On-site Interns
Interns who already live in one of the main office cities listed above can volunteer full or part-time (days or evenings) as part of the Bella promotion and marketing team. When applying, please specify your city and the hours you are available to work in the office.

Interns who would like to relocate to one of the four hub cities must indicate their city of choice on their application e-mail. Housing is available for those interns working in the Miami / West Palm Beach and Philadelphia offices for the nominal fee of $100 for the duration of the program. Interns are responsible for their own lodging at the Hollywood/Los Angeles and Washington DC locations. Food and travel expenses are not included at any location.

- Remote Interns
Remote interns will be able to attend regular conference calls with the producers and/or marketing directors of Bella, and on occasion with the lead actor and director. Tasks and work guidance for remote interns will be mainly through e-mail.

- As-Needed Interns
If you are unable to commit to a set number of hours per week, you may submit your information to be considered an "as-needed" remote intern. Our nationwide team of “pinch hitters” has proven to be a key element to our marketing strategies.

How to Apply
All interns are required to submit a resume and/or a brief paragraph about themselves, along with the type of internship (on-site or remote) they are interested in pursuing. Once we receive your information, we will contact you via email within 48 hours regarding the status of your application.

Applications should be sent via e-mail to Erin McCrory at erin@bellathemovie.com with the subject header clearly indicating whether you are applying for a remote or on-site internship, as well as your remote home city or your preferred on-site location.
