Art Director Apprentice

ABOUT TRADE SCHOOL

Looking for an internship? You’re in the right place. Here, at Trade School, we call them apprenticeships. Why? Because we believe there’s art in learning a trade from a skilled employer. 

As an apprentice at Trade School, you can count on learning a range of skills related to media and content production. Part think tank, part creative agency, part production company, we are a group of scrappy and highly motivated craftspeople who are here to help you grow.

ART DIRECTOR APPRENTICE

You understand why Papyrus is so wrong. Everyone wants your opinion on “Does this look good?” You know the importance of leading and kerning as well as the balance of an aesthetic. You are a conceptual genius, and that thinking expands into visuals and imagery. You’re passionate about making cool stuff and are always up for a challenge. You’re a visionary.

WHAT'S IN IT FOR YOU?

2 MONTHS OF GROWTH

We make it a point to ensure our interns leave with a few extra tools in their proverbial tool belts. Each week, we train our interns on something new by means of sessions and panels, in addition to a summer-long project.

SHOW SOME GRIT.

Speaking up during a meeting or adding your ideas on the chat—we’re here for it!

Our interns are known for their legacies, not fetching coffee or making copies. Step in boldly with real work, clients, and make the magic happen.
