Video maker internship
Film and edit with us: join our Rotterdam studio and make videos of our instruments for YouTube and Instagram.
What you do
You work with Roey, our founder, at the studio, and you shoot and edit for our YouTube channel and Instagram. Have a look at our channel to see the kind of work we make. You will:
- film our instruments being played, built and taken apart, in the studio
- edit longer videos for YouTube: demos, tutorials and behind the scenes
- cut short videos and Reels for Instagram from the same shoots
- help plan what we film, from idea to shot list
- film the build-up to Superbooth, and the fair itself if you join us
We agree the dates and shape your plan together with you and your school, around what you study and what you want to learn.
The gear
The studio is set up for video production: Sony FX30 cameras, lights and the gear around them. Bring your own laptop for editing.
Who you are
You are a 3rd-year film or media student, and you are also a musician, DJ or music producer. You love sound as much as video.
You can shoot and edit on your own, you have a feel for light, sound and rhythm in a cut, and you can work with feedback. Knowing synthesizers is a plus, not a must: you will learn them here. You speak English; Dutch is a bonus.
What we offer
- Real work on instruments that musicians around the world play, which you can show in your portfolio. Our work is open source, so what you make is public.
- Daily guidance from Roey Tsemah, designer and founder, as your company supervisor.
- An internship allowance of €300 to €500 a month, depending on your skills and experience.
- A small, creative team: 2 to 4 people at the studio each day. We each work on our own projects and brainstorm through the day and over coffee.
- A studio 5 minutes’ walk from Witte de Withstraat. 4 to 5 days a week, mostly at the studio. Bring your own laptop.
Superbooth, Berlin
Every May we present our instruments at Superbooth in Berlin, a big synthesizer fair where we have a strong presence. Superbooth 2027 runs 6 to 8 May. If your internship runs in May, you may be able to join us at Superbooth. It depends on availability and budget, so we can’t promise it. If you join, we pay your travel and stay.
