ABI Internship
April 01, 2025by: Taurphan Gamonsugosol - ThailandProgram: Creative Internships in MelbourneABI was a helpful and worthwhile experience that I would recommend to others. My main concern that I was worried about when entering the workforce was being able to find an internship at all, so I'm glad that ABI was able to bridge the gap there so I could focus more on my actual work experience as opposed to stressing out applying to a million different places in the hopes that one of them will interview me.
I got an amazing internship!
March 21, 2025by: Salvador Logchies - NetherlandsProgram: ArtBound Initiative - Creative Internships in Los AngelesArtbound Initiative provided an excellent pathway for securing my internship, offering valuable support throughout the process. They helped match me with a role that aligned with my interests at Untitled Entertainment. I gained hands-on experience in script coverage, film production, and industry research. Their guidance in networking and professional development was helpful, making it easier to connect with industry professionals and build confidence in reaching out to managers and assistants. Beyond securing the internship, Artbound was also supportive in practical matters, such as helping me transition smoothly when I needed to change apartments. The first housing that they arranged was far from good but they made sure I got my money back. Their responsiveness and willingness to assist made a significant difference in my overall experience. Thanks to this program, I gained both professional skills and industry connections that will benefit me in my career. I highly recommend Artbound Initiative to anyone looking for structured, well-supported industry experience in entertainment and media.
ABI Sydney Internship
September 11, 2024by: William Higo - AustraliaProgram: Creative Internships in SydneyMy internship in Sydney has been an amazing adventure. After graduating, I wanted to dive make a start in my career but hit a few bumps along the way. That’s when I signed up for the ABI program, which really came through for me. They helped me connect with companies and agencies in Sydney and got me ready for the internship by refining my resume, updating my portfolio, and keeping in touch with potential employers. When I first arrived in Sydney, I was a bit unsure of myself, but the company I interned with was very supportive and helped me adjust to the new environment. Over the months, I started with smaller tasks but gradually took on more important work. Overall, it was a fantastic experience, and I’m really grateful to ABI for helping me get started as a designer.
