The Cinema Internship class is designed for the requirements of the Cinema AFA degree program. The academic portion of the class will reside on Canvas and be completed weekly. The other component is an internship with a professional client/company, either external to the college or an internal position, which further challenges the student in the field of Cinema, either in a film-related business or in a position completing cinema-related work for that establishment. The student must have at least fifteen college credits and nine in the Cinema degree though it is recommended it should be in the last one or two semesters of the degree to strengthen the student as an asset for the company. An internship must be secured prior to the semester starting as a total of 161 hours of internship time must be completed over the 13 weeks of the class. With any course-related questions or further correspondence, please email Professor Kevin Sampson ( ksampson@nvcc.edu).

CST 290 is an internship course for the Cinema AFA degree and cannot be taken before acquiring at least 30 college credits, with at least 15 in the Cinema degree program. This course is intended for students in one of their final semesters of completion of the Cinema AFA degree. The student is responsible for obtaining their own internship no later than the end of the first week of class, so it is best to enroll early. The course is a hybrid course as almost all work will be done outside of the classroom at the internship place of employment. However, there is an academic component of the course as well and will be mostly completed online in Canvas with the exception of two in-person meetings with the instructor (to be arranged with the instructor). You will not be responsible for meeting in-person at the time/day listed on your schedule unless that is the agreed-upon day and time for the required meetings with your instructor.
