I wanted to gain experience in the film industry and Cape Town is the perfect town for that.

Being part of a team and be able to help and work closely with Producers, Directors etc.

My placement was very good. It met my expectations completely.

Yes, they were very friendly and attentive.

Yes, very much. I quickly was given the opportunity to work on my own and deal with some responsibilities.

Yes, I learned a lot concerning communication skills and working in the film industry.

It depended. At EuroConnection definitely but MonkeyFilms did not really have much work for me except cleaning the storage room. I would recommend that you make sure the organizations, interns go to, do have work or at least stuff they provide where people can learn something.

Definitely! I think it was important for me to work abroad and step out of my comfort zone.

I thought my english skills were not good enough for working in CT.

It is a very cool place (the best in summer ;) ). You often meet great people and the best about Cape Town is the diversity. Beaches, City, mountains, and nature!

Absolutely. Just go!

Yes, they offered me several jobs although the season was coming to an end and Lucie or Luigi were always reachable.

I did not need much from them but Luigi was very helpful, taking me with on the first day and checking in from time to time.

Make sure that the organisations you work with really do have work for the interns. Otherwise it’s just a loss of time.

I thought that it is too much

It is justified because of the service which is provided.
