Project-based internships / Bellingham + Seattle

Don't just watch the shoot. Help make it.

When the right production has room, emerging creatives join Suubi Media in a defined role, contribute to real work, and get direct feedback from the people making it. You know the material terms before anything starts. This is not a promise of a placement. Openings depend on the projects on the calendar.

    You know what you own on the day before the day starts.

    Notes come from the people who cut and deliver the work.

  • Terms in writing

    Duties, dates, hours, and usage are confirmed up front.

Proof / April 2023

A WWU student on a real matchday assignment.

Western Washington University published an April 2023 feature about marketing student Alec Hoffman's internship with this company when it operated as Berg Media, including content work at Lumen Field during a Seattle Sounders match.

Western Washington University featured Alec Hoffman, a WWU marketing student, in an April 2023 reel about his internship with this company while it operated as Berg Media, before the Suubi Media name. The internship took him to Lumen Field to create content at a Seattle Sounders match: a live game with the same access, pace, and pressure as any other assignment. Western's feature also mentions his work with WWU Athletics and Blue Room Bellingham.

There is no formal program or partnership behind this. Students come onto a shoot when a real project has room for one, and terms are agreed in writing beforehand.

Where you can contribute.

Every opening is shaped by the project it belongs to. Not every role includes every area, and all work is supervised.

  • Production support

    Gear, call times, and shot logistics on set, working to a supervisor's plan so the day stays on schedule.

  • Camera and field capture

    Second shooting and supervised field capture, learning how coverage is planned, framed, and protected.

  • Editing and post

    Selects, assembly, sound passes, color support, and getting a cut to a reviewable state.

  • Social and editorial

    Vertical cutdowns, captions, and the writing that carries a piece of work into a feed.

Built to support academic credit.

Academic credit may be available with advance approval from your college or university. Your academic department decides eligibility, credit, hours, and registration before the internship begins. If it approves the placement, Suubi Media can provide a written role description, learning objectives, a schedule, direct supervision, feedback or evaluations, and review any required agreements. Participation does not guarantee credit, and no university endorsement is implied.

International students: work authorization, including CPT when it applies, has to be approved before any work begins.

Opportunity standards.

  • Each opening discloses the role, dates, expected hours, location, supervisor, compensation status, and essential requirements before you accept it.
  • Suubi Media provides equal opportunity to qualified applicants and interns and does not discriminate based on any status protected by applicable law.
  • Reasonable accommodations are available in the application process and during the internship. Ask using the studio email on this page.
  • Safety orientation and clear reporting contacts are provided before any field work.
  • Portfolio and media use is confirmed in writing and stays subject to client permissions.
