We're Hiring: Creative Intern
Summer Creative Intern
Birmingham, AL | Hybrid | Summer 2026
Bright & Gray Creative is a Birmingham-based creative studio that does brand strategy, video production, photography, graphic design, social media, and web design — often all for the same client. We're a small, fast-moving team and we don't do generic work.
We have a strong belief that the next generation of creatives deserves more than coffee runs and a seat outside the room where it happens. Our interns do real work, on real clients, from day one. You'll leave with portfolio pieces you're actually proud of, hands-on experience across multiple creative disciplines, and a real understanding of how a creative studio operates. We're invested in teaching you how this work actually gets done, not just watching from the sidelines.
We're looking for a summer intern who can move between the design side and the content/social side without missing a beat. If you love making things look good, understand how content performs, and have an interest in video, we want to talk to you.
WHAT YOU’LL ACTUALLY DO:
Create graphics and visual assets for client social media accounts
Support website design and updates
Assist with content creation across multiple industries
Sit in on client meetings and be part of real creative conversations
Shadow on photo and video shoots
Pitch in on events and weddings as needed (yes, some Saturdays)
YOU’RE A GOOD FIT IF YOU:
Are proficient in Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign)
Have a working knowledge of Canva, social media platforms, and basic content strategy
Have some exposure to CSS/HTML or web design
Can take direction and run with it independently
Are curious about strategy, not just execution
THE DETAILS:
Dates: Mid-May through Early August
Pay: $800 flat for the summer (~80-100 hours); Class credit is offered
Location: Birmingham, AL
