Development Intern

American High's Development Internship consists solely of reading scripts and writing coverage in order to help our creative team determine which high-school comedy scripts we receive are worth producing.
 

If you're unfamiliar with coverage, it refers to the act of writing a critical assessment of each script that you read based on a template we provide via Google Form. Questions that are consistently asked about each script include, but are not limited to:
 

• Would you pass, consider, or recommend this movie for production?
• What would you give it from a 1-10 overall?
• How would you rate its characters, structure, comedy, and dialogue from a 1-10?
• Provide comments to explain exactly why you feel the way you do toward the script.
• Provide a logline and synopsis for each script.
• During which season(s) does the script take place?
• During what length of time does the script occur?
• What percentage of the script takes place in a high school?
• Are the characters of high-school age?

This internship is entirely remote and can be accomplished as an experiential-learning opportunity or for school credit.
