Role: Internship Immersion Program for Content Creation, Editorial Entertainment

Location: Los Angeles

Type: Full-Time, Paid Internship

Internship Dates: Feb. 3 to Jun. 3

Application Deadline: Dec. 20

Who You Are:

Are you passionate about storytelling, content creation and pop culture? Are you interested in working alongside some of the most-renowned entertainment event photographers in the industry?

Are you excited to have your content seen on a global scale?

We are searching for an up-and-coming content creator who demonstrates a willingness to progress in their craft and capture the entertainment world through their unique lens and perspective.

As part of our commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion, Getty Images is partnering with Los Angeles-based agency Crown + Conquer to improve representation of Black, Latinx and other historically underrepresented communities in the world of professional photography.

This opportunity is for a paid internship taking place from February through May 2025 in Los Angeles.

Your Next Challenge:

We are offering a four-month in-depth opportunity to become a member of Getty Images' editorial entertainment team and train on all facets of the editorial imagery business, including:

· Creating editorial content (photography and videography) from wide-ranging assignments such as red carpets, produced events and live shows, including on-site assignments and activations for our partner, Crown + Conquer

· Assigning events and client relations

· Video and Field editing

· Major event production and more

You will join a team of highly collaborative and talented photographers, videographers and content creators who are comfortable working with a diverse set of tools, and willing to take initiative on their ideas. Some of the learning objectives of the Internship are as follows:

· Access, exposure to and work experience with some of the nation's leading entertainment editorial photography professionals.

· Contact time to understand the depth of editorial photography (stills and video) between teams.

· Training to adapt to developments in the technology and software in editing photography, including workflow standards and communication between teams.

· Observe and practice live content capture, editing, production, distribution and asset management of stills and footage.

· Broaden understanding of the relationship between capture and production of content coverage of an entertainment event and the differences in distribution and licensing editorial content and paid content.

We value learning and development, and you will be given every opportunity to work on projects that excite you.

What You'll Need:

Whilst prior experience working as a content creator is not required, some experience creating photographic imagery and video content is helpful.

We recognize that the barriers to entry to professional photography can be high and we are hoping to create an opportunity where eager and enthusiastic creators are seen and heard.

We ask you are extremely comfortable working with a team of photographers and editors and take direction well.

You understand, or have interest learning Adobe Photoshop, Lightroom and other content management tools.

We will provide you with a full kit for the internship (e.g., camera, accessories, laptop).

Nice to Have:

There is no one thing that makes an application stand out. In general, Getty Images is looking for a keen eye, passion and a variety in your portfolio that demonstrates all aspects of photography and videography.

Along with the application, we will be looking for
