Hello Maci! It is so cool to see what a day as a music label intern looks like. I love that you give many pieces of advice on landing a role in the industry. It is also really interesting that you used to run a 5SOS twitter update account in the past. I truly believe passion projects as such really help you stand out when it comes to applyigng. As a former fangirl myself, it's refreshing to see girls like me already in the position I wish to be in. This video is great for those seeking guidance on how to land such a cool job like yours and also the ins and outs of what your duties entail. I truly admire you!
I am grateful for this video! I am from Brazil and the music market here is in a great movement of international expansion, despite the language barrier. I'm working hard to work with artists in the creative direction of music videos and album covers, and this video helped me a lot to understand how I can show what I do! Thanks!!!
@João Paulo Viana Hey, saw you mentioned creative direction of music videos, I'd love to know more about how that all works. I myself love music videos and have tried turning all the video footage I always have into music videos, lol! I went on your RU-vid and could not find places where I can contact you. How can I contact you to talk more?
love this video! Congrats on landing your internship! Any updates? Did you end up getting a position at Rhino? It is still cool to have gotten that experience!
Are there like specific skills relating to music that i would need to apply as an intern for a record label? I know that having a passion for music is important, but I'm kind of unfamiliar with what an intern would do, like do i need to show that i know how to produce music or something?
Thank you for making such a helpful video! i rlly wanna work at music company like you, but i haven’t decided what i wanna study in uni/college. do you have any suggestions that i should study? (major that makes me easier to get a job at music industry) thank you🥺
I'm glad you found this helpful! I suggest choosing a major that really interests you. It really depends on what particular department in the industry you're interested in (i.e. accounting, artist and repertoire (A&R), marketing, sync, etc). There are some unis that offer a music industry major, but for most of the interns/co-workers I worked with, their majors ranged from marketing, communications, business, etc. I personally chose Cinema and Television Arts with emphasis on Entertainment Media Management bc I wanted to work in the business side of entertainment, and just added a Digital Marketing minor.
@@simplymaci Thank you for answering my silly question..! but i have one more question. is it easier to get into a company if i go to a famous university? or it does not matter??
Hi Maci, Loved the video. Very informative! I wanted to ask as to who do you send your applications to? And did they require you to be studying music for the internship? I have a marketing degree, and I kick ass at admin/PA work. I am looking to work at a record label for the experience to learn more about the industry and I figured working as the company PA would be the best route. Did they have a PA @ the Warner office you worked at?
Definitely! I'm not a marketing major but I did have Digital Marketing as a minor and participated in a marketing club and learned that my knowledge in marketing really helped with managing multiple projects and how to interact and network with other people. I feel with that position, you can major in anything related to business or entertainment as long as you work on your own personal projects related to that role.
this video helped me so much, thank you! i currently run a update/tour info account on twitter with two other girls for a band “why don’t we”! i really want to intern at alantic and warner any tips for what i should study in college or how to get to that step once i graduate college?
That's awesome! It depends on what you're interested in at a music label (i.e. marketing, A&R, project management, etc) but I'm assuming you may be interested in digital marketing since you run an update account. It definitely helps considering how Why Don't We is signed to Atlantic (which is why I'm assuming you want to intern there). I personally majored in Entertainment Media Management and some of the people I worked/interned with had majors related to Business, Marketing, Communications, etc. If anything, your major helps but what's more important is your internship/work experience during college. I do have a few videos with advice on getting an internship and in entertainment you can check out here: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rnFzi1l3Y50.html and ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-SvZvjo0uBzc.html
Hi. 🙂 Please, let us pray together. Dear God who art in heaven hallow be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven, give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil for thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory forever in Jesus Christ's name we pray, amen.
