In Nov 2011, Tamirfilms is offering an opportunity for a free 8 week internship. The Program will target individuals in California with a focus on kids from the East Los Angeles area who are interested in learning about the film making process.
During this process, Silencio an independent film, will be shot entirely on location in East Los Angeles and Altadena and a large portion of the film’s cast will be comprised of local talent.
Silencio’s grassroots approach will take young Latinos from East Los Angeles and immerse them into an intense 8 week course in film production. This unique course will integrate the local youth with veterans in the entertainment industry and offer an opportunity for young filmmakers to get practical hands-on experience. Interns will be a vital part of the project and assist in the film’s production.
The curriculum will include marketing as it pertains to social media, pre-production, on-set production, and post-production. Applicants must be between the ages of 16 – 21.
We are so proud of our Internship giving an opportunity to those kids who can’t afford to take acting classes, dance or piano lessons.
