About Us
The Renew Democracy Initiative (RDI) is dedicated to creating a movement based on rational discourse and political liberalism, both of which have come under threat from across the political spectrum. Founded by a diverse, cross-partisan group of leaders, including former world chess champion Garry Kasparov; Senators Heidi Heitkamp and Bob Kerrey; and Pulitzer Prize winners Anne Applebaum and Bret Stephens, we are committed to data-driven decision-making and combatting the twin threats of far-left and far-right radicalism. Our Board and extended network give us unique credibility and a global perspective as we educate people about core liberal principles and empower them to prioritize these values in their civic behavior.
We have a small, tight-knit team, so interns will have the unique opportunity to work on high-level projects and partnerships and make a personal impact on American democracy. As a start-up organization, we have an “all hands on deck” approach, and interns should expect to play multiple roles, handling a mix of substantive and administrative responsibilities.
The Role
- Working on other special projects as needed
- Assisting with the promotion of RDI video content
- Assisting with all elements of video editing and production, including but not limited to: splicing video clips together; lower thirds, transitions, locating b-roll, as well as placing b-roll within videos during production; finding appropriate music for videos; subtitling videos; and possibly working on animation
- Creatively strategizing ways to generate positive publicity for RDI videos
- Working with the marketing team to create video content for social media campaigns
- Working on video conceptualization with our A/V team, executive staff, and members of the Board of Directors
Qualifications of an Ideal Candidate
- Detail-oriented to a fault
- Significant knowledge of video editing and production is a must
- Open-minded and willing to interact with those with whom they may disagree
- A belief in RDI’s mission and values
- Exceptional undergraduates, graduate students, recent grads, or those with relevant work experience are encouraged to apply
- Social, articulate, and a self-starter unafraid to take initiative with minimal oversight
- Knowledge of graphic design elements is a plus
- Experience editing with Final Cut Pro and/or Premiere is required;
- Experience thinking through effective distribution of video content is a plus
Logistics & Benefits
- Hours are flexible and we are willing to work around your academic schedule
- This internship lasts 3 months during the summer, and interns can choose to work either full time (40 hours/week) or part time (25+ hours/week)
- A typical day could include spending a few hours executing work on a video project; participating in a lunch-and-learn with a prominent political figure, a world champion poker player, or a global business leader; coordinating with the Executive Team to edit a new project; and attending team meetings to conceptualize new video ideas
