Testimonials
Justin—Summer ’22, HIFF31/HIFF32
Emory University
My summer internship at Hamptons Film and subsequent work at the Hamptons International Film Festivals were terrific. The hands-on experience that I gained was unbeatable, and it allowed me to take my first steps into the industry while doing so in an environment where it was okay to make mistakes. The team at HIFF are some of the kindest, warmest, and most genuine people I have ever met, and they truly made my time there unforgettable. Each time I go back, it is not only fantastic to see how much I have grown with the team’s help, but it feels like coming home.
