THE DEPARTMENTS FOR INTERNSHIPS:
PRODUCTIONYou’re curious, creative, and ready to learn. You see every project as a chance to dive in and figure things out—whether that’s asking, “how can we make this work?” or “what’s the next step?” You’re eager to get your hands dirty, learn the tools of the trade, and support the team wherever needed. You might not have all the answers yet, but you’re ready to ask the questions, put in the work, and turn ideas into something real. When the job is done, you’re already thinking about what’s next because, for you, production isn’t just a task—it’s a craft.ANALYTICSYou were born curious and have stayed inquisitive.
You dive down the rabbit hole to answer those questions and turn data and math into insights and stories. Asking questions like “did it work?” and “how can you tell?” But most of all “why?” When you’re done, you show your work and light the way for others to do theirs. MEDIA You’re a chameleon of conversation, the cranberry juice of mixers. You have great people skills, but you also love the solid ground that comes with numbers and spreadsheets. You’re constantly keeping up with the next big thing in the media landscape.
You’re always in the know.CREATIVE - ART DIRECTORYou understand why Papyrus is so wrong. Everyone wants your opinion on “Does this look good?” You know the importance of leading and kerning as well as the balance of an aesthetic. You are a conceptual genius, and that thinking expands into visuals and imagery. You’re passionate about making cool stuff and are always up for a challenge. You’re a visionary.**REQUIRES PORTFOLIO LINK**CREATIVE - COPYWRITERYou have a strong opinion on the Oxford comma or using ‘but’ at the start of a sentence and a weak spot for Moleskine journals.
When you tell a story, people listen. You’re a master of language and lover of the em-dash—right? From a headline to a script, you understand the weight of words. You evoke emotion carefully but effectively. You’re a storyteller.**REQUIRES PORTFOLIO LINK**#LI-REMOTE
