With a management degree am I qualified to apply to an Animation Studios Production Management Internship?

I am graduating this spring with a degree in Management and I really want to work at Disney in a production capacity and I feel like I would potentially be qualified I just do not have any actual Animation skills or experience. I currently work at an AMC so I understand the end product market and I work in a management capacity currently. I took 4 elective in college that are Film/TV related as that is the sector I want to aim to get into.

I have been trying to contact people on LinkedIn as well but every single person that I have InMailed has ignored it, except one person who said they were too busy to help me.

I am also open to other companies I should be looking into.

Are you still in school? Yes technically you’re qualified and what you probably want to do is do some internet searching/stalking to find the Disney animation internship coordinator and reach out directly after applying online. If you’ve graduated I believe Disney also has a PAGE program and fellowship you might want to look into.

Yea I’m going into my last semester right now, and this internship is for the summer right after I graduate. I will definitely look up that PAGE program I have never heard of it

Not sure if it’s still running or includes animation, but a good foot in the door.
