FAQ
Film Industry Opportunities

What is Hollywood Career Paths?

Hollywood Career Paths is a comprehensive directory of opportunities in the film and entertainment industry. We curate listings for internships, jobs, grants, fellowships, and educational resources to help professionals at all stages of their careers find pathways into and through the entertainment industry.

How do I find specific opportunities in the film industry?

You can use our search bar to find specific keywords (like "screenwriting" or "production") or use our filter buttons to browse by category (internships, fellowships, grants, jobs, etc.). Each card links to a detailed page with more information and direct links to the organization's application or website.

Are these opportunities available internationally?

While many opportunities are US-based (particularly in Los Angeles, New York, and other film hubs), we do include some international opportunities like the Toronto International Film Festival. Each listing provides details about location requirements and whether remote work is possible.

How often is the directory updated?

We regularly update our directory to ensure the most current opportunities are listed. New programs, fellowships, and job openings are added as they become available. However, we recommend checking the original organization's website for the most up-to-date information about specific programs or deadlines.

I'm new to the film industry. Where should I start?

For newcomers, we recommend exploring internship opportunities, film festival volunteer positions, and educational programs or workshops. Organizations like Film Independent, Sundance Institute, and various film societies offer resources specifically designed for emerging filmmakers and industry professionals.

Are there opportunities specifically for underrepresented groups in Hollywood?

Yes! Many organizations offer programs specifically designed to increase diversity in the industry. Check out resources from organizations like NALIP (National Association of Latino Independent Producers), Blackhouse Foundation, Center for Asian American Media, Outfest, Women in Film, and many others that focus on creating pathways for underrepresented voices.

How can I contact Hollywood Career Paths?
