Internship Programs

TVI offers two seasonal internship programs to give 'real world' work experience and resume building opportunities to university students or recent graduates with strong academic records and talents. Our internships offer a daily stipend and/or school credit. We offer a Marketing & Entrepreneurship internship in the winter and a Design & Animation internship in the summer. Each internship lasts approximately 3 months. Past interns have gone on to bigger agencies or other companies, and have used the experience to help them plan their careers.

To apply for an internship position please view if we have any open positions. For Design & Animation internships please also have a portfolio to show - preferably online.
