Voices From Cuba is an historical documentary film that explores the turbulent migration from Cuba to the United States, since Fidel Castro took control of Cuba in 1959, as told through the personal stories of the exiles who lived it. Narrated by Andy Garcia. We are currently wrapping up post production on Part 1, which will premiere in December.
Internship Opportunities: We are seeking 2 Miami-based interns to help us with this launch. The initial commitment will be 8 weeks, from November 1 to December 31st, with a minimum of 5 hours a week working on the project, with more time needed as we get closer to the premiere.
This is an unpaid internship, but interns will gain valuable experience, industry connections, and a credit in the film.
Qualified interns may have the opportunity to help with:
Working with our archivist to help find and secure archival footage and stills
Working remotely with our Denver-based editors as needed
Helping to launch and run our upcoming crowdfunding campaign
Assisting with the film’s marketing and distribution

Assisting with graphic design and website / trailer if needed
