Coproduction Office is looking for an intern in graphic design to
collaborate with our marketing coordinator on the marketing (posters,
pressbooks etc.) of our films and the branding of the company.
Based
in Paris and Berlin, Coproduction Office is an international
distributor and producer of bold, award-winning films. Coproduction
Office's CEO and founder Philippe Bober has worked with prominent
ground-breaking directors* from early on in their careers and has
produced forty films to date. The majority of these films were selected
for the main competitions in Cannes, Venice and Berlin, where they have
received many major prizes, most notably the Venice Golden Lion in 2014
for Roy Andersson’s A PIGEON SAT ON A BRANCH REFLECTING ON EXISTENCE,
and the Palme d’Or in 2017 and 2022 for THE SQUARE and TRIANGLE OF
SADNESS by Ruben Östlund.
Coproduction Office's international
sales division distributes a catalogue composed of films produced by
Philippe Bober as well as acquired titles and restored classics,
including Roberto Rossellini’s key films. The catalogue is unique for
its artistic strength, with films that have an individual and
distinctive cinematic language, and often daring content.
The number
of staff has tripled in the past four years and Coproduction Office
continues to grow as it diversifies its activities (which include a
cinema and gastronomy project in Berlin and increasing its restoration
of classics). At the forefront of arthouse cinema in Europe,
Coproduction Office is an international, dynamic, and motivating
workplace which offers its employees support, responsibility, and career
progression. At Coproduction Office you will have the opportunity to
work closely with films by some of Europe’s most exciting and
accomplished directors. Coproduction Office is now combining its
know-how in these fields into a unique project: a premium cultural space
that includes a three-screen arthouse cinema, an art gallery and a
multifunctional exhibition venue, ambitious restaurants, and a wine bar.
Located in Berlin’s city center in an iconic listed building, it is to
open its doors to the public in 2025.
