As my DT readers know, I've got tons of stories about established Penn alumni musicians, filmmakers, actors, plus dozens more entertainment professions.

I've even begun covering stories about new young alumni trying to break into entertainment careers such as acting, more acting, and music.

What I haven't covered are undergrads getting summer internships who are trying to break into the business.

This summer, our "15 second clip" campus correspondent Kelly Diamond (C'13) is out in LA and has secured not one, but two GREAT entertainment internships in TV and film at a production company and a studio.

After the jump, get some quick dish from Kelly on:

• what you need to know about moving from Penn to LA and how to prepare for housing and transportation
• what responsibilities she has at these internships and the great people she's meeting

For any undergrad or alum considering a move to LA to pursue a career in entertainment, be sure to follow us this summer here and on our Facebook and twitter pages!

While it's taken quite a licking, it refuses to completely "vanish".

After the jump, find out what this "blast from the past" item is and see what 19 years did to it.
