This summer, one lucky college student will win an exclusive marketing internship at Lionsgate Premiere.
With 80 television shows on 40 different networks, Lionsgate is global media and motion picture giant that has produced everything from the critically-acclaimed series Orange is the New Black, to the multiple Emmy Award-winning drama Mad Men, to the explosive Hunger Games and Divergent franchises. On March 25th, Lionsgate Premiere, a division of Lionsgate, is releasing a hilarious movie called Get a Job starring Miles Teller and Anna Kendrick. The film is about how life never goes as planned after graduation — especially when it comes to employment.
It’s a topic that resonates with many graduating seniors and recent grads, which is why WayUp is partnering with Lionsgate to get students hired. From now until March 31st, college students and recent grads can apply for a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to be Lionsgate Premiere’s next Marketing and Publicity Summer Intern. The marketing internship allows students to manage content creation, social media, and PR for their upcoming titles and get a first-hand look at how theatrical marketing campaigns are executed.
