Description

2026-2027 LSC Fellow - OGT/The Ohio Channel About us Since 1963, the Ohio General Assembly has sponsored a 13-month, full-time, paid (salary plus benefits) legislative fellowship program. Up to 24 individuals are selected each year to participate in the fellowship, which is administered by the Legislative Service Commission (LSC), in conjunction with the Ohio House of Representatives, the Ohio Senate, and the Ohio Government Telecommunications (OGT)/The Ohio Channel. The cohort typically includes ten fellows assigned to work with members of the House, ten with members of the Senate, two with LSC, and two with OGT. Although completing the 13-month fellowship program does not guarantee permanent employment with the General Assembly or the state of Ohio, many fellows find permanent positions with the General Assembly or with state agencies as a result of participating in the fellowship program. Post-fellowship opportunities in the private sector have included positions with lobbying or public relations firms. See our Fellowship Program Brochure for additional information on the program. What you’ll do Media production fellows work as assistant producers at OGT/The Ohio Channel, gaining hands-on experience with both studio and field productions. Assignments include camera operation, control room directing, research, script writing, editing, lighting, videography, and audio and graphics production. Fellows will have the opportunity to participate in producing governmental, contract, educational, historical, and art programming, for broadcast and online platforms. In addition to the technical and creative experience, fellows will be able to observe the legislative process as they remotely operate multiple cameras for legislative sessions and committee hearings. Finally, they will participate with all other fellows in program activities such as monthly seminars. How to apply If you need help with your application, email Fellowship@lsc.ohio.gov or call (614) 466-8734.

LSC will contact your references seeking their comments on your work; Transcript from each college or university attended; A 500-750 word personal statement explaining why you are interested in the fellowship program and what makes you a good candidate for the program; and A demo reel, up to five minutes in length and that is publicly accessible via web link, with your name and duties related to the project(s) clearly indicated. Note that the demo reel is the most important component of the application materials. Attention to technical broadcast standards, as well as content, will be taken into consideration when evaluating the overall quality of your work. The submissions given the most credit are those that clearly indicate the applicant’s work on each segment (videography, editing, etc.).
