Every year, KMVT offers summer internships that combine teaching and Media Production!  Interns will learn the skills in TV or Animation Production through assisting our veteran instructors in our summer TV Studio Production or Claymation Middle School Camps! Apply to teach TV production, claymation, or both.   Interns do not need to come with any prior knowledge of Studio Production, Stop-Motion animation or editing.  You will learn it on the go!  However, some knowledge is a plus, and you must demonstrate strong interest in the subject matter.

High School students are encouraged to apply!

KMVT Camps run from June 16 – August 22.  Interns who can commit to the entire 9 weeks will be given greater consideration, and receive a travel stipend of $500.  All applicants are asked to commit a minimum of 5 weeks, 7-hours each day.

During the first week of a course, you will be in training mode. During the 2^nd and 3^rd weeks, you will act as a teaching assistant.  By the end of your studio production internship, you will be knowledgeable in how a studio show is put together, from operating the control room and studio, to editing the final video. By the end of your claymation internship, you will have knowledge of the entire animation process, from molding clay characters to operating cameras to capture stop motion animation, and editing the final video.  During your last week, you will have the opportunity to produce your own 1-time studio show or a stop-motion animation short.  Either way, your program will be aired on KMVT during prime time in the month of September.

Your weekly schedule will look something like this:

Monday 9-4 – Assist with introductory exercises, activities, brainstorming and concepts. 

Tuesday 10-4 – Assist instructor as students start creating their final projects.

Wednesday 10-4 - Help students as they continue with their final projects

Thursday 2-8 – Edit together students’ final projects

Friday  10-4 – Lead students in an alternate animation or Studio activity. Enjoy the final screening of student videos!
