Many of wonder just what it would be like working behind the scenes of an epic film or our favorite television show. College students from participating schools can apply for semester-long internships on such shows as The Tonight Show and Late Night with Conan O’Brien.

Some College Students are Earning Credit from Entertainment Industry Jobs

College credit is earned as a field experience by working three days per week for the length of the semester on the set. Though these students are not paid for their time, they are normally reimbursed for their travel expenses to and from the movie or TV studio. This entertainment industry job also opens a number of doors for acting, and provides an excellent learning experience that also earns college credit.

Hourly Wages for Entertainment Industry Jobs

Some internships offer hourly compensation depending on the duties defined in the agreement, which is more similar to regular employment but is for a predetermined period of time. At the end of the internship the student will be evaluated and possibly offered a full time position.

Movie Extra Jobs

There are also entertainment industry jobs for anyone that wants to be an extra in a film production. Extras are always needed for all types of movies, and a specific look is not always required.

Producers are frequently interested in all types of people, and even though most of these entertainment industry jobs do not have speaking parts (some are crowd scenes, etc.), they give people and even commercial models that don’t necessarily have any type acting ability a chance to participate.

To get started, scout out the web and search for casting calls held at locations throughout the country on a fairly regular basis. Entertainment industry jobs may also be posted in local newspapers and through employment agencies as well. So get busy looking and get busy working in the entertainment industry!
