uVu Internships

Internship Program Opportunities
WPBT2 provides students with an opportunity to combine work experience and professional development to enhance their formal education. Our program serves to reinforce and strengthen the students’ personal values and career objectives through an improved understanding of themselves and the work environment. We provide practical work experience to balance the students’ theoretical training and allow students to meet and learn from professionals in the field and develop a network of contacts. Areas of openings on the uVu team include, Interactive Media, Marketing, Production, and Programming.

To be considered for an internship students must be enrolled in college/university in which their coursework requires internship hours. Students must also provide documentation from their school stating that they will be receiving credit for their time spent interning at Channel 2. For more information please email Monica Westby at humanresources@channel2.org or call 305-424-4011. Visit uVu here

uVu's #1 video: Robert the Haunted Doll

Take a look at uVu's #1 video: Robert the Haunted Doll.  With over 6800 views this video has become a classic in the uVu vault. What or who is Robert the Haunted Doll? Wikipedia describes Robert as a doll that was once owned by Key West painter Robert Eugene Otto. The doll, which is supposedly possessed, has become a fixture of ghost tours in the Key West area since it was inducted into the Martello Gallery-Key West Art and Historical Museum.
