Art in Tanzania has been operating since 1996. Our community placements attract about 250 participants annually. Our vision is to give students hands-on experience working in developing African communities. In addition to your studies, you will have an unforgettable, once-in-a-lifetime experience of African culture and life, as well as fantastic natural scenery and wildlife.

Our interns work on new film productions daily. We are seeking skilled interns and product managers to collaborate with and train our team in Tanzania. The work includes:

• Scriptwriting
• Directing
• Cinematography
• We are looking for the following:

We use our social media pages for advocacy work. Our Facebook pages have over 50,000 followers.

The Tanzanian film industry is a fast-growing sector. However, the industry is competing with initiatives like Nollywood in Nigeria.

Interns will work on a production team with individuals with different backgrounds and skill levels.

Work hours are 6 to 8 hours per day, Monday through Friday.

The program is ongoing, so the start dates are adjustable. Your placement is tailored to your background, experience, and interests, empowering our daily work with the communities.

Daily tasks include practical fieldwork, planning, reporting, and visibility work.

The start and end dates are flexible, as all programs are ongoing, with many having run since 1996.

You and your visiting friends can enjoy low-cost, sustainable safaris and tours.
