"Interning at CPBN Media Lab taught me the life skills I needed to ultimately secure a terrific job in my major literally right after graduation."  

Natalie Asarisi, Summer 2014 Media Lab Intern, Moore College of Art and Design

Matt Fahey, Fall 2014 Media Lab Intern, University of Connecticut

"Through the experiences in the media lab I discovered my love for video editing. The environment at the media lab is the perfect speed for learning how to produce quality work.”

Marc Schielein, Fall 2014 Media Lab Intern, University of New Haven

“I've been working at ESPN as a production assistant cutting game highlights for Sports Center and Baseball Tonight, and running teleprompter for Sports Center. It's been great and I wouldn't be here without your help!”

Kyle Van Dam, Spring 2015 Media Lab Intern, University of Connecticut

"I walked away with a bigger media portfolio and I started the small productions company, Scroggins Media... IAM has changed my life by inspiring me to continue my journey in the media field."

Tiffiny Scroggins, 2014 Institute for Advanced Media Graduate

"The Media Lab has given me a firm understanding of capturing and editing photos, videos and sound bites. There has been a positive energy every time I step into the Media Lab, and I owe it to my team as well as my coach!"

Kevin O’Brien, Fall 2015 Media Lab Intern, University of New Haven

"The Graphics Arts class at IAM changed the way I view the visual world around me, enriching every interaction I have with visual communications."

Nina Bender, 2015 Institute for Advanced Media Student

"I enjoyed interning at the Media Lab because of how involved we were in creating and producing our own stories."

Sarah Greco, Fall 2015 Media Lab Intern, Manchester Community College

"If you are interested in a career in journalism or media production, CPBN Media Lab is where you want to be! You will gain hands on training from industry professionals, everything from the initial idea to the final edit."

Michelle France, Fall 2015 Media Lab Intern, University of Connecticut

"On Day One I said 'I'm not artistic or creative'. Now that is the furthest from the truth! Not only did I learn a lot about myself, but I learned so much with Adobe Photoshop, Adobe InDesign and even a little bit about Illustrator and Muse."

Nathaniel Towler, 2015 Institute for Advanced Media Student
