Cinematography Internship
Career Domain is looking for two cinematography interns to help with camera, lighting and shooting work for a 6-month stint. The stipend is ₹2,000 to ₹5,000 a month, which is well below what similar remote internships in this field typically pay.
What you would be doing on shoots
You would be a hands-on helper on the shooting side, working alongside the creative and production team. The work covers equipment, framing and the shoots themselves.
- Equipment and lighting: set up and handle cameras, tripods, lights and other basic gear, and help with simple lighting arrangements for shoots.
- Shots: help with camera positioning, framing and shot composition, assist in planning and preparing shots before filming, and shoot photos and videos to the brief you are given.
- Shoots and learning: back up the team on both indoor and outdoor shoots, and try out different camera, lighting and shooting techniques as you learn.
Who can apply and what to line up
The post sets a few conditions. You need to:
- be available for a full time internship, which the post describes as in-office
- be able to start between 20 Oct 2026 and 24 Nov 2026
- be free for the whole 6 months
- have relevant skills and interest in the work
The skills listed are video editing, photography, video making and cinematography. Note that the listing is tagged remote, while the availability condition mentions in-office, so read the original posting closely before you commit your time.

What the stipend looks like

- Put together a small set of your best photos and short videos, so your shooting and framing skills are easy to see.

- Think of a time you worked with others on a shoot or project, since this role means supporting a team indoors and outdoors.
