Crowdfunding & Campaign Marketing Intern – Film & Entertainment

Crowdfunding & Campaign Marketing Intern – Film & Entertainment

Hemmy Productions LLC
Remote | Flexible Schedule | Internship

Build and Manage a Real Crowdfunding Campaign

What if your next internship gave you a campaign you could actually put on your résumé?

Hemmy Productions LLC is seeking a motivated Marketing, Communications, or Business student for a hands-on Crowdfunding & Campaign Marketing Internship.

This is an opportunity to take ownership of a live crowdfunding campaign for an independent entertainment production company and gain practical experience in marketing strategy, audience development, digital marketing, content strategy, campaign management, fundraising communications, and analytics.

This is not simply a social-media posting internship.

You will have the opportunity to evaluate the existing campaign, develop a marketing strategy, identify target audiences, create and coordinate campaign communications, conduct outreach, monitor results, and make recommendations based on campaign performance.

The Campaign

Hemmy Productions is currently running a crowdfunding campaign with a $5,000 overall goal and an initial $1,000 milestone.

The immediate milestone will help support an important next step in the development of one of Hemmy Productions' entertainment projects.

Your role will be to develop and execute a strategy designed to move the campaign toward its fundraising goals.

We are not looking for someone to simply "share the link."

We want someone who can ask:

Who should care about this project, why should they care, and what would motivate them to become a supporter?

What You Will Do

As the Crowdfunding & Campaign Marketing Intern, you may work on:

  • Crowdfunding campaign strategy 
  • Marketing strategy and planning 
  • Audience research and audience segmentation 
  • Digital marketing 
  • Social media marketing 
  • Content marketing 
  • Email marketing and donor communications 
  • Community and audience outreach 
  • Campaign messaging and calls to action 
  • Campaign content and promotional materials 
  • Performance tracking and campaign analytics 
  • Identifying which outreach methods are producing results 
  • Adjusting campaign strategy based on performance 
  • Preparing campaign progress reports 
  • Developing recommendations for improving campaign performance 

You will have the opportunity to take significant ownership of the campaign while receiving support and guidance from Hemmy Productions when needed.

The Career Experience

This internship is designed to give you something concrete to discuss in future interviews.

Rather than simply saying:

"I helped with social media."

You could potentially say:

"I developed and managed a live crowdfunding campaign for an independent entertainment company, including audience research, campaign strategy, digital outreach, content development, performance tracking, and campaign optimization."

You will have the opportunity to build experience in:

  • Campaign Management 
  • Crowdfunding
  • Digital Marketing 
  • Marketing Strategy 
  • Audience Development 
  • Market Research 
  • Content Strategy 
  • Social Media Marketing 
  • Email Marketing 
  • Communications
  • Fundraising Marketing 
  • Campaign Analytics 
  • Performance Measurement 
  • Business Development 
  • Entertainment Marketing 

Your work can also provide material for a portfolio, résumé, LinkedIn profile, or future internship/job interviews.

  • Marketing

Educational Experience

Students will be able to develop and practice skills in marketing strategy, consumer/audience research, communications, digital marketing, campaign management, analytics, and performance evaluation through a structured real-world project.

The student will be expected to document campaign activities, evaluate results, and communicate recommendations to company management.

  • Consideration for future marketing, business-development, or entertainment opportunities 

Work Arrangement

Remote

Flexible schedule

Designed to accommodate a student's academic schedule.

Our Ideal Candidate

We are not looking for someone who simply wants a list of tasks to complete.

We are looking for someone who wants to take ownership of a project, develop ideas, test them, learn from the results, and improve the campaign.

You will have room to bring your own ideas to the campaign.

The goal isn't simply to create more posts.

The goal is to learn how to turn strategy + audience + communication + execution + measurement into results.
