Production Internship • 15 Weeks • Spring/Summer 2026

Intern Production Hub

Welcome to the war room. We're building the Intro to Motion Design video curriculum from scratch.

The Mission

We are producing a full library of weekly lesson videos for Introduction to Motion Design. This is a real-world production pipeline. We start with the history content, lock a motion language and visual flow, then expand into tutorial videos.

🚀 How This Internship Works

This is a real world project. I am looking for you to develop smart workflows -- YES -- using AI to help with organization, scripting, flow, ideation, and things like that. Use the tools you're gonna use in the real world. Get the free versions of Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini if you don't already.

🎬 The Production Pipeline

Phase 1: History of Motion Design videos -- chunk the textbook content into digestible episodes.
Phase 2: Lock the motion language and visual flow for the series.
Phase 3: Expand into technique tutorial videos using the established style.
