Your Mission

Join a small, passionate team of filmmakers, storytellers, and creative producers working at the intersection of sport, entertainment, and culture. We’re crafting bold, cinematic stories that go beyond the podium—unconventional, character-driven narratives rooted in movement, obsession, and the human spirit.

As an intern, you’ll:

  • Support the development of original films and documentaries, with a focus on emotionally resonant, character-led storytelling in the world of sport and culture

  • Assist with research, creative ideation, and pitch deck creation across early-stage projects

  • Participate in story development sessions, script reads, and select post-production workflows

  • Collaborate with internal and external partners on visual research, lookbooks, and asset gathering

  • Gain hands-on exposure to the full storytelling process—from concept to final delivery

  • Ideal for someone with a deep love for storytelling, an eye for detail, and a curiosity about how powerful films come to life. This is a unique opportunity to be part of a team shaping a new vision for sports entertainment.

What You’ll Experience:

Immerse yourself in a small, ambitious team that values curiosity, creativity, and the courage to challenge convention in storytelling.

Gain firsthand exposure to how bold, unconventional ideas take shape, transforming into films that move culture and ignite emotional connection.

Learn to navigate ambiguity and help shape stories still in their raw, early forms—where there’s no single “right” answer, only deeper insight and stronger perspective.

You’ll be invited to contribute your voice—regardless of your experience level—and encouraged to ask big questions, take creative risks, and grow through feedback.

All within a collaborative, high-trust environment that celebrates initiative, reflection, and continuous learning.
