Why This Internship?
Are you a student who loves bringing characters and stories to life through animation? Do you want to use your creativity to make a positive impact? At Safe Passage Project, you’ll have the chance to create storytelling videos that highlight the resilience of immigrant youth and support a mission for justice. This internship gives you the opportunity to experiment with your craft, build a standout portfolio, and see your animations drive real campaigns.

- Use character design, rigging, and animation techniques (2D or 3D) to develop compelling narratives
- Edit and prepare animations and video clips for use on social media, campaigns, and events
- Add branding elements and polish content to ensure consistency across platforms
- Contribute your own creative ideas and artistic style while aligning with Safe Passage Project’s brand guidelines
What We’re Looking For
- Current student or recent graduate in Animation, Media Arts, Film, or related field
- Familiarity with animation software such as Adobe Animate, After Effects, Toon Boom Harmony, Blender, or similar tools

- Creative problem-solver: self-starter who learns quickly, experiments boldly, and thrives when given creative freedom.
- Detail-oriented, deadline-driven, and eager to grow as a designer and animator
