Internships

FableVision is always on the lookout for fresh talent. If you’re an artist, animator, developer, producer, user experience designer, or writer, we’d love to hear from you. Staff or freelance, we generally prefer to work with people local to the Boston area – mainly so that we can work WITH you onsite on a regular basis. We're a fan of the team thing, which means studio camaraderie.

FableVision is an equal opportunity employer and values a diverse workforce.

Internships

We offer unpaid internships throughout the year. We require that all interns be current college students doing internships for academic credit, and can commit to a minimum 16 hours of work per week. Interns must commit to a minimum of 10 weeks for summer internships and 12 weeks for fall and spring internships.

Applications are open to students from anywhere in the U.S. and of all educational backgrounds.

Our internships provide an opportunity to learn industry skills and obtain professional experience in a fun, dynamic environment. Interns can focus on design/animation, marketing, development, or production, and are given projects that correspond to their experience and skill level. You can hear an inside perspective on our intern-written blog InternVision.

Our internships generally have three internship periods during the year:

• Spring semester (January-April): January 15 application deadline

• Summer (May-August): April 1 application deadline

• Fall semester (September-December): August 15 application deadline.

From the Intern Desk

Interns also have the option to complete an independent project during their time with us. This could be a podcast, a blog series, a video project, or something of your own making!

Whether you are an artist or animator, we love to see examples of all kinds of work; illustration, animation, game design, etc.
