Art Directors Guild Launches 6th Annual Production Apprentice Program

--

The Art Directors Guild is launching its sixth annual Production Apprentice (PA) Trainee Program with a wide call for applicants across the country to colleges, universities and recent graduates. The program is dedicated to developing the most diverse group of new talent for the profession of production design for the moving image. This opportunity provides the most motivated and talented aspiring designers with an immersive learning experience and eventual Art Directors Guild membership. It is one of the most ambitious apprentice programs administered by a Hollywood labor union.

Production apprentices are mentored on the job by working Production Designers and Art Directors and are exposed to a wide range of workplace experiences - features, episodic, commercials, reality shows, live events and theme parks. Not limited to Hollywood alone, this is a national initiative.

The 2018 - 2019 PA Program Application Submission Period is March 1- April 27, 2018. After a review of applications, interviews will be held in early June with ten finalists. The chosen candidates will then be invited to participate in the 2018 program.
