I applied.

Internships aren't usually about the money. they're usually just about learning the ropes and getting your foot in the door.

good to see everyones more concerned with a paycheck than with doing something you enjoy.

Please don't try and make it sound like everyone is being greedy here.

This is a simple case of wanting something... ANYTHING... in return for the work they're doing. There are VERY few places where non-paid internships are still offered because companies realize how valuable interns are. Not to mention the fact that if you DO have cold hard experience with Final Cut Pro, the amount of local places that would pay you to help with promotions are a dime a dozen.
