Academy's Tech Council Selects 2010 Interns
The Science and Technology Council of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has selected five students to participate in a summer internship program designed to provide real-world experience to students interested in careers in motion picture computer graphics, technology and research.
Now in its fourth year, the program provides eight-to-twelve week internships that give students hands-on experience with advanced motion picture technologies. Industrial Light & Magic, Pixar Animation Studios, Rhythm & Hues Studios, Technicolor and the Tech Council itself will serve as internship hosts; the Council will provide a stipend of $4,000 to each student.
The 2010 Science and Technology Council summer interns and their hosts are:
Jessica Feuston, Georgia Institute of Technology - Technicolor
Karthik Raveendran, Georgia Institute of Technology - Rhythm & Hues Studios
Jie Tan, Georgia Institute of Technology - Pixar Animation Studios
Lisa Webster, San Jose State University - Science and Technology Council
Jihun Yu, New York University - Industrial Light & Magic
"The Academy is committed to developing the next generation of innovators in science and technology for the motion picture art form," said Elizabeth Cohen, the Council's internship program chair. "These mentor-guided internships provide valuable hands-on, career-related experience while exposing students to the practical application of technology and expanding their academic education."
Established in 2003 by the Academy's Board of Governors, the Science and Technology Council provides a forum for the exchange of information, promotes cooperation among diverse technological interests within the industry, sponsors publications, fosters educational activities and preserves the history of science and technology of motion pictures.
