For the past few days, I’ve been trying to draft out an entry on caffeine: on how I cut it out of my life completely in 2000, and on how it’s slowly worked its way back in, to the point where I’m nearing the need for an espresso I.V. drip.

As I haven’t managed to get that post anywhere near coherent, however, I’m using the topic instead as a segue into something else vaguely coffee-related: Cyan + Long Tail is looking for one more intern.

I kid about the coffee part, as we’re searching not for a drink-fetcher or phone-answerer, but rather someone who can actually take on substantive projects, related to Long Tail’s first releases, to two films Cyan is shooting this summer (one of which just launched into pre-production), to building up Long Tail’s marketing and distribution infrastructure, and to shepherding through development the next few films on Cyan’s shooting slate.

Though we’re looking for someone with a burning love of good films, industry experience is less important to us than a history of pushing ahead on any kind of innovative, independent projects. If you or someone you know think you might be a good fit, and would be interested in getting some very hands-on experience in the world of film, track me down.

[The idea for this online intern plea blatantly ripped off from the vastly-wiser-than-I Ole Eichhorn.]
