Start your career with an unforgettable experience! Emagister presents an exciting internship program on Nature Video / Film Production, offered by the Archipelagos Center, Institute of Marine Conservation.
The success of the conservation efforts of the Archipelagos Institute depends on their sharing with local communities and the general public. In this regard, documentary videos and films are invaluable instruments to represent the biodiversity of the Aegean Sea, as well as local and global environmental problems. The films are made for numerous purposes, including awareness videos for children and the general public, as well as for the media (television and social networks).
Graduates, students and volunteers can be part of this work through an internship, which they can request in order to enrich their knowledge with the practical experience of working on field research and conservation projects. A series of key scientific conservation topics are addressed, providing participants with field research experience contributing directly to the future of this unique ecosystem.
We invite you to be part of this adventure that will help you develop your professional and personal skills. To learn more about this program, request more information through Emagister and we will contact you to provide advice.
