Overview of Role

Please give an overview of your role and what this involves on a day-to-day basis.
- Work across all theatrical brands including: Marvel, Disney Live Action, FOX, Pixar...
- Regularly lease with teams across EMEA and America.
- Monthly calls with America for International Trailering.
- Ensure territories have dub mats, scrips and lyric sheets necessary to meet delivery.
- Collate scripts, lyrics, credits for each film and create closing off documents.
- Ensure keywords and phrases are correctly translated to the correct foreign languages.
- Pull trailer reports every week and chase any missing deliveries.
Were you given much responsibility during your placement / internship?
You are given a lot of responsibility. You are responsible for making sure multiple territories meet each debut date. If you are late sending a trailer order, then this potentially has a domino effect on the whole operation, meaning territories can't make debut.
Please rate how meaningful the work you were doing was

Unfortunately due to the pandemic I worked from home for my whole placement. Despite this I still got a good feel for the team. Everyone is really friendly and makes the effort with you. There are lots of opportunities to get involved in the wider company. Eg, PRIDE and Women at Disney.
