MediaStorm looking for Spring 2010 interns- apply by October 15, 2009.

We’re looking for interns for Spring 2010. If you’re motivated, highly-organized, and passionate about multimedia, we’d love to hear from you. Start dates are flexible. We’re looking for experience in multimedia production, design, motion graphics, and/or programming for web. Internships will be paid.

We’ve pulled together some of the most frequent questions applicants ask- please read through these, and let us know if you have any other questions.

Application Deadline is October 15, 2009. Apply here.

What will I be doing?
This is a production internship. You will be working closely with the MediaStorm team to produce multimedia projects. This means full days in front of Final Cut, doing picture research, organizing images, transcribing, etc. If you are here during one of our Advanced Multimedia Reporting Workshops, you will be producing a Behind the Scenes piece (you can see previous ones here and here), but other than that, you will most likely not be gathering content/taking pictures (for us, we hope you’re always shooting for you, if that’s your thing). We expect you to be fully proficient in an OSX operating environment, and experience in Final Cut Pro and Aperture will help (though not required). Our interns don’t do anything we don’t do ourselves- if you’re a coffee drinker, we’d love for you grab us a cup if you run out, but we’ll return the favor another day, we promise.

What are the hours like?
We’re pretty flexible- a typical day is 10-7, sometimes a little earlier, sometimes a little later. We work hard, but you will have plenty of time to enjoy the city as well. Weekend work is rare (except during workshops).

Who will I be working with?
You can see our bios here. We’re a small, pretty tight group- we eat lunch together most days, go to gallery openings together, etc. It’s a very collaborative group, so you’ll be working mostly with the Producers, but also with the Interactive Designers and the rest of us.

Who is this internship good for?
This is a great internship for anyone interested in learning how multimedia projects are produced. Whether you want to be a multimedia producer, or are a photographer who wants to be able to produce your own projects, you will learn a lot here. Our interns need to be self-motivated and proactive- we will work closely with you, but there will be times we’ll expect you to work on your own, too. Aside from Producers, we’re also interested in interns on our design and web development side, so if you have those skills, we’d love to hear from you!

When will I know?
The deadline for our Spring 2010 internship is October 15, 2009. We will be in touch with all applicants by the end of October.
