This role sits at the intersection of research, storytelling, and cultural intelligence. You’ll dive into both qualitative and quantitative research to help track, analyze, and translate what’s happening across the entertainment ecosystem—from audience behavior and industry strategy to cultural shifts shaping film and television’s future.

We’re looking for someone who is deeply engaged with entertainment as an industry: someone who follows the trades, tracks studio moves and platform strategy, listens to industry podcasts, and actively thinks about where film and TV are headed.
