One of the core values at redpepper is that we actively support personal growth, which is why, as an intern, one is encouraged to complete a project based on learning something new. Animation is an area that I want to grow in. I have never composed a full animation before and hadn’t even ever opened some of the programs that I used.
INTERNING IS NOT A SPECTATOR SPORT.
UPDATE: The Account Management and Copywriting Intern Positions for Spring 2012 have been filled. Thanks everyone who applied. The Graphic Design Internship is still open.
As a redpepper intern, you’ll contribute firsthand to something we hold as the highest importance – our culture. We are addicted to learning, collaborating and being actively creative on a daily basis. You’ll learn the ins and outs of the ad world, build relationships in the industry, get a taste of a truly collaborative work environment, and probably even pick up a new skill set or two.
Of course, your days here will largely be what you make of them. You can be part of changing this place if you want, but that comes through initiative, courage, and some elbow grease. And you’ll have a mentor whose brain you can pick along the way, as long as you’re ready to return the favor.
You might be thinking, how much can really happen in a three-month, 20 hour a week (minimum) internship? Well, that’s exactly our question to you.

Well, that time has finally come.
Eric and I have finished our internship here at redpepper. We can’t believe it’s already over! We had tons of fun! It was an amazing and incredibly valuable experience. Thank you.
For our intern project, we wanted to give back to the redpepper intern program by creating a state of the art redpepper Intern Orientation Film. This will give future interns a little glimpse of what to expect and, of course, remind them to have fun.
THANKS redpepper!!!!

Let me introduce myself—I’m Sarah, the new redpepper intern.
I just moved to the Nashville area. Born and raised in Oklahoma. LOVE Tennessee though. It is beautiful here. I swear they don’t make these colors in OK. The trees alone! Anyway…
As I said I am an intern. And there’s plenty to learn and do at redpepper. With all of these resources (human and machine) at my fingertips I have decided to take the opportunity and make a stop motion animation for my intern project.
Here are some things that intrigue me about stop motion films:
1. the ability to create the impossible
2. the personification of objects
3. the interaction of 2D and 3D forms
4. the illusion of movement
Below are a couple of my favorite stop motions that are inspiring. In the first I love the bed as the background canvas and the simplicity in the movement of the objects.
This one uses cut paper, claymation and unpredictable elements.
Losing things is frustrating. KNOWING that you put an even number of socks in the dryer yet come out with an odd is completely baffling. So I am exploring the land where lost things go, in the form of stop motion. It is out of pure curiosity and a hope to make losing things a little bit easier. Here are the beginnings of this project’s construction.
Until next time!
Sarah
