Consumer Product Digital Design & Video Editing Internship, design-1c

Introduction

NourishCap.com creates educational, documentary, scientific, and artistic shows about health, mind, and mushrooms. Our mission is to expand public embrace of culinary, functional, and practical mushrooms by creating educational content and offering vetted products. By interning with us, you get practical training and real-world projects related to applying your major.

Over the years, we have trained hundreds of interns! We took the time to write this thorough internship description because it answers most of the questions people have and is a preview to how we provide much information throughout each internship. Read this entire description closely and take detailed notes because we quiz applicants about it during the interview process.

Project-based Learning: This position lets you practice your graphic design knowledge professionally. You'll receive feedback primarily from a business perspective but also from a design perspective. Projects may include creating visual advertisements, like presentations, video ads, and explainer videos. Tasks may include: editing videos, promotional content, and social media segments, each designed to meet the visual tone and goal of our organization or clients. While we provide a clear creative direction, we encourage interns to take the initiative and bring fresh ideas to the editing room. You are encouraged to take the creative initiative to complete many possible graphic design projects in conjunction with the company vision. Your training experience will be aligned with the activities of the company during the time of your internship, so while overarching training and responsibilities will be similar to what is described here, the projects and details of the experience will evolve over time.

We don't have a full-time designer on the team, so the supervision and feedback will be primarily from the business and marketing departments and an external mentor. We expect that applicants already have learned the fundamentals of design through their coursework. This is a chance to learn how design interplays with content. If you are looking for an internship that teaches design basics, this is not the internship for you.

Collaboration: Apply AI in a vibe-coding spirit for design: use AI tools to draft layouts, generate variations, and speed up formatting, iterating quickly rather than starting from scratch. As a form of collaboration, this role helps proofread and quality-check not only its own output but also output produced by every other position across the company, and it maintains clear documentation of its files, style choices, and projects so the next intern can continue the pipeline. Expect ongoing collaboration with the interns in all of the other positions.
