About The Role

PIX11 is seeking a motivated and detail‑oriented Digital Content Intern to support our growing digital team. This is an ideal opportunity for students interested in digital media, audience engagement, video production, and newsroom operations.

This internship is not a writing role; instead, you’ll gain hands‑on experience with the platforms, tools, and workflows that power a modern newsroom.

What You’ll Do

• Content Management:
• Learn to publish, update, and organize content using the WordPress CMS.
• Assist with formatting to ensure optimal performance.
• Video & Multimedia Support:
• Help edit short‑form video content for the website and social channels.
• Assist in clipping and preparing assets for daily production workflows.
• Assist with copyright compliance on videos posted across digital platforms.
• Social Media Operations:
• Support the digital team in preparing posts, monitoring performance, and organizing assets across platforms.
• Assist with drafting social media copy.
• Newsroom Operations:
• Participate in daily editorial meetings to understand how a digital newsroom operates.
• Assist with research, asset management, and other production‑related tasks.
• Help maintain internal documentation and digital archives.

What You’ll Learn

• Best practices for publishing and maintaining content in WordPress.
• Fundamental video editing skills and newsroom-level file management.
• How social platforms integrate with editorial strategy.
• The internal workflow of a professional newsroom, including cross‑team collaboration.
• Practical skills in digital production that are highly transferable across media roles.

Who You Are

• A current student with an interest in digital journalism, video production, or multimedia content.
• Familiar with major social media platforms and digital news consumption trends.
• Comfortable learning new tools and working in a fast-paced environment.
• Detail‑oriented, organized, and eager to develop new skills.
• Experience with WordPress, Adobe Premiere, or social publishing tools is a plus, but not required.

What We Offer

• A supportive learning environment within a collaborative newsroom.
• Access to industry tools and hands-on training.
• Mentorship from experienced editors and producers.

Academic credit (if applicable).

Hourly rate: $16.50
