"The internship was absolutely fantastic. I worked 40 hours a week for 3 months paid doing what I've always wanted to do. I did some 2D work in flash, but mostly 3D work, modeling and texturing in Max. I got the chance to work alongside some of the best artists I've ever run across and learn from them. I learned industry standard software and will probably have a job when I graduate. I really encourage students to apply to The CSU Media Internship program and seek whatever avenues that are available to them to find an internship. My internship improved my skills and gave me the opportunity to socialize with future coworkers and to network. The social aspect of this industry is as important as one's ability to get the job done. So, getting out there and meeting professionals is of dire importance."

"The people in the company were super nice, kind, and good at teaching. I learned how to use cameras, set up equipment to shoot commissions/events, edit footage with Avid, and more. The most useful thing I learned in the internship is how to be professional (how to work professionally)."

"I got a pretty nice experience with my summer internship in Aconyx Animation Studio, and they would like me to go back to work after I graduate. I definitely learned a lot during the internship, and I really appreciate your help."

"This summer I was fortunate to intern for The Robert Thorne Co. Through this internship I got a better understanding of podcasts and how they work. I am now able to upload video files in FTP format for live streaming. This internship allowed me to apply the skills I have learned in the classroom in a professional environment, I would like to take this opportunity to thank csu media internships for the opportunity and look forward my next internship."

"The summer internship I had was awesome! I was a studio/control room intern at Revision3, which is basically a TV station on the web. They are the leader in their field, and it was cool to meet a lot of the people I've watched on TV and the web for so long. I learned a great deal from the experience. They didn't stick me with boring tasks like getting coffee or making copies. They let me pick some of my own projects and do a lot of other things at the company--from directing their Friday morning live show in the control room to re-wiring their patch panels in the racks. Staying at SFSU was also great. The dorm room they put me in was more like an apartment and less like a dorm. And the food wasn't bad either!"

"This program has been a great way to get my foot in the door. With this program I was able to receive and internship at KCET which jump started continuous phone calls from other internship opportunities. Ever since that first phone call I have had an internship every quarter. Each one giving me a better experience than the last. I thank the CSU internship program for helping aspiring media students to get on their way."

"…I was very excited about my internship at NBC Universal. I am still grateful for the internship and I learned more about myself. I am definitely equipped for this industry. I am 10xs stronger now. I don't let anything intimidate me. I've met people from all levels. I'm ready-- glad to have experience this internship."

"I just completed my internship with the Bobby Ball Talent Agency on 8/20/08. I believe the internship was successful because it gave me some direction into what to do career-wise once I graduate. I feel I have made valuable contacts in the agents working at Bobby Ball. They have all offered to "keep their ears open" for a job opportunity for me and are even evaluating my resume to make it more presentable for job prospects."

"I got to have a lot of fun and meet some cool people. It is the most fun I have had since coming to college."

"..it gave me the opportunity to reach many different companies, many of which I was unaware were offering internships. Also, the internship was a great experience for both my education and personal experience. "

"I am a big fan of the Media Internship Program, I wish I would have known about it earlier. I have already started telling many of my peers to apply for next summer. "

"..the CSU Media Program is a great tool for students. Many opportunities are not open to those without experience and the program helps these people find positions that would be hard for someone to find on their own. "

"We couldn't ask for anything more from our two perfect CSU Media interns. The students are diligent, hard-working, reliable, and best of all, desire to absorb as much television production experience as possible. It's refreshing and fun to have CSU students join our team. We will continue to recruit from the CSU Media Internship program in the future!"
"It's a fantastic program for employers and students alike."

Your internship program came highly recommended to me, and I was wondering what the process is for posting internship opportunities with you. We are looking for two interns for the fall semester, each for two days per week.

"I am so happy with the interns I've had thru your program. I am preparing for a new group for the fall and am wondering how soon you are able to start the process?"

"During the semester, our CSU MIP intern gave a yeoman effort and really cranked out the content. He will probably return next semester and act as the student leader for the project."
