Production Summer Internship at Camp + King

Announcing a unique summer internship program designed for one ambitious student to gain hands-on advertising production experience at Camp + King, one of the West Coast’s best ad agencies.

About the Internship Get ready for an immersive dive into advertising production. You will be introduced to a fully-integrated, future-forward production philosophy. A fast-paced world that thrives on medium-agnostic storytelling, constant self-evolution, and taking comfort in the discomfort of the unknown.

Part of this internship involves flexing your right brain – developing the creative palate that will make you a respected, collaborative partner to the creative department. (Further) understanding how to articulate a macro creative vision into smaller, executable pieces. Another part of this internship will be seeking out areas of raw creative opportunity (technical or otherwise), and considering how those opportunities could catalyze creative execution. Lastly, this internship will involve shadowing (and assisting) Camp+King producers in some of their day-to-day production responsibilities. Getting an interactive glimpse behind the curtain of how mixed-media advertising campaigns are made.

You’ll be expected to do self-guided research, build presentations for creative inspiration, and be an executional support figure to the Production team. In this internship you’ll work directly with all members of the C+K Production team, including its Director of Production. You’ll learn how to become a true creative collaborator and will understand the core skillsets necessary to become a top-shelf producer. Interns will be paid $20/hour for the duration of the internship.
