Main Duties

This is an opportunity to get stuck in with the dynamics of the studio, working across a range of projects and briefs, on both commercial partnerships and internal studio projects. Our studio is a foundry for co-creation and you’ll get the chance to contribute as an equal at the conceptual stage and fully involved in design sprints.

• A succinct showreel or portfolio demonstrating your best work.

What will the internship offer the student and what will they learn while they are with you? E.g. skills they could learn/develop and experience they could gain.
