Imagine This Women's Film Festival (ITWIFF)

 

Imagine This Women's International Film Festival aims to empower women and non-binary filmmakers worldwide. They promote these great filmmakers so that more people can see women's power and provide them with educational and professional opportunities. I found this opportunity through LinkedIn. It's the first time I have tried social networking with unfamiliar people. For this internship, I did a virtual interview with my supervisor, and she told me I got the Graphic Designer position after one week.

We had a total of 4 Graphic Design interns working together. We all work through a platform called Asana. Every week we have a virtual meeting for 30 mins. Sometimes it's 1 hour. We also share our progress on different projects so we can easily get suggestions from others.

For this position, my major duties included:

● Opening Credits(Typography Animation) for the 7th Annual Imagine This Women's International Film Festival
● Sales for tickets Motion Graphics
● Design Posters for the 8th Annual ITWIFF
● Gifs that people can share in Instagram Stories
● Supporting the design and creation of social share graphics

This Internship experience broadened my horizon and provided me with valuable experience in the head start of my career. And I developed many skills, not only technical skills but also communication, multi-tasks, and time management skills, which are so essential to complete your tasks on time. It's super beneficial to share ideas and thoughts with the most innovative thinkers in this organization. I was still determining my career goal, but after this experience, I found my career interest in motion graphics, so I have continued working on it. In the future, I'll keep working on the things I like, hoping to have more valuable and professional work.
