Coding and Automation Intern
Buffalo 8 is a full-service media company based in three offices across Los Angeles, California. Buffalo 8 operates seven core service divisions: development, production, post-production, distribution, client management, marketing, and creative branding with accolades from the Sundance, Berlin, Toronto, Tribeca, and SXSW festivals. Buffalo 8 works closely with its sister company, BondIt Media Capital, a world-renowned film, television and media financier founded in November 2013.
To begin the internship, interns will have the opportunity to work at Buffalo 8 and BondIt Media Capital, rotating during the week between the different operating divisions.
Intern responsibilities and daily tasks will include some (but not all) of the following: tracking new and current deal information, assisting analysts with Excel modeling for financing transactions, gathering lead lists for business development and organizing grids, updating, maintaining and automating the companies’ operating systems and other daily tasks as they arise to support the management team.
The position offers an exceptional opportunity to gain hands-on experience in both film and media finance, related production services and a stronger perspective of producing film and television content. Candidates should have superior oral and written communication skills, be eager to learn about the entertainment industry and have a strong work ethic. Coding experience a plus but not required.
