<p>Hey everyone! I posted this on the Film & Visual Arts board, but I figured a cross-post would help garner more replies.</p>
<p>I'm a current Wharton student who wants to eventually break into film production and screenwriting. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of the best companies (preferably paid) to work for to get connections/experience next summer.</p>

<p>First off, love your screen name! You may want to look into an internship with the Cannes Film Festival. I don’t know if it’s paid, and it probably will cost you some big bucks, but if you’re as much of a film buff as I think you are, you would probably enjoy the experience!</p>
<p>Haha I’m not sure that I could handle another run-in with Billy Walsh!</p>
<p>In all seriousness, I’ve been looking at different companies’ pages, but really NBC is the only one with internships listed (and it appears that they are unpaid).</p>
<p>Have you thought about the Disney college program? You’d probably start out cleaning bathrooms, but hey, you’ve got to get your foot in the door.</p>
