Creative Commons internship: FreeCulture.org members please apply!

January 23rd, 2007 by Nelson Pavlosky

If you would like a full-time, paid internship this summer in sunny San Francisco, look no further! Creative Commons is offering an internship for students in their San Fran office, and they want you to apply (by March 1st). It’s worth noting that they especially prefer members of FreeCulture.org chapters, but they can’t pick you if you don’t apply! See the description of the internship:

Community + Media Development Internship

This internship is for an eager student who is interested in building Creative Commons and Free Culture communities. The internship will focus on a grass roots effort, and/or media development to encourage the reuse of content. While FreeCulture.org club participation is encouraged for this position, a practical enthusiasm is a requirement. This position will be offered to a non-law student. Particular skills in media creation (video, audio, software) are desired, as well as demonstrated community involvement in and around Creative Commons and FreeCulture.org

Help us help Creative Commons help you!

UPDATE: Heh, some people apparently thought that leaving comments on this post was the correct way to apply for the Creative Commons internship. That is incorrect, unfortunately. The correct way is mentioned on the opportunities at Creative Commons page:

    Hello,
    I am a master student in the Interactive Arts and Technology program at Simon Fraser University, Vancouver Canada. I am currently researching CC, open source and online communities (towards my thesis on user interface and interactions via web2.0 ). To be finished in the spring time.
    As an Interaction developer, new media designer (since 1994), I have over twelve years experience in the field of simulations, games, e-learning and animation design and am sure I can contribute to CC not only by writing my thesis about it but also by joining the team in the near future.
    Please advise me if the internship is still open and who can I send more info to.
    Many thanks in advance,
    Efrat
    MA candidate, Interactive Arts, SFU, CA.
