Paid Intern: Junior Art Director

YOU:

Cannonball is looking for an entry level art director (for a limited internship) who has a talented eye, big ideas and an eager attitude to learn.

This intern position is designed for a creative individual who is eager, teachable and ready to dive deep into our clients’ brands. Employees that thrive at Cannonball are thinkers and doers – which means not only thinking about the next big idea, but also making it happen.

In this position, you will learn first-hand from some of the most respected and experienced art directors and creative directors in the market. You will assist these senior level creative leaders on day-to-day projects across print, digital, social and video projects. Basic video editing knowledge is a plus, but not required.

US:

In return, Cannonball offers an opportunity to learn and hone your talents at an independently-owned, creatively-driven shop, led and supported by people who share your love for a great idea and enthusiasm for creating.

We work on a variety of clients, from local and regional brands to Fortune 500 companies with national and global footprints.

We are currently operating a hybrid work schedule, with our staff working from home 2 days a week. This internship will welcome you in to our offices on Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursdays to work along side our team on a part-time basis.

Our culture is relaxed and open, we try not to take ourselves too seriously, and while a late night here or there isn’t out of the question, we believe our work gets better when it’s one thing in our lives—not the only thing.

  • Support senior design team on day-to-day creative needs across a variety of media
