Production Internships (unpaid)
The San Antonio Current, the award-winning altweekly newspaper of the nation’s seventh-largest U.S. city, welcomes production (graphic design) interns during the Spring and Summer semesters. Start/end dates and hours are flexible and can be tailored to fit work and school schedules. Applicants should be skilled in basic design programs such as Adobe PhotoShop and Adobe Indesign or Quark. Adobe Illustrator is a plus.
We are currently accepting applications for Spring ’09 and Summer ’09 internships.
As a San Antonio Current Production Intern, you will (in no particular order):
• Work alongside some cool designers in a funky, creative, efficient, and relaxed environment.
• Treat yourself to a lunch fit for a king every day at various downtown San Antonio eateries.
• Find out about all the cool stuff to do in town before all your friends!
• Gain experience in other aspects of production such as scanning, color correcting, pdf-ing, and newsprint specifications.
• Be included in internal concepting/brainstorming sessions and general staff meetings.
• Contribute ideas and designs to various projects such as in-house promotion, advertising, and web ads.
• Walk around barefoot if it suits your fancy.
• Be issued an unlimited allowance of questions to ask.
• Get an entire parking spot in which to leave your motor vehicle
• Be treated like a vital member of the team.
A clear way to think of this internship is as a trade. Much like you might trade a PB&J sandwich for a pudding cup...
Interested? Send a resume and four design samples.
