Job Specification
Social Video Intern – New Scientist Location: Kensington, London Contract: Full time Job Introduction New Scientist, the world’s most popular weekly science and technology magazine, is recruiting a social video intern for a 6-month paid placement commencing in April or May 2023. Founded in 1956 for “all those interested in scientific discovery and its social consequences”, New Scientist’s teams in London and around the world cover international news from a scientific standpoint and ask the biggest-picture questions about life, the universe, and what it means to be human. Our social video intern will be based in London with our video team. Here, you'll learn how to produce scientific videos, from idea to publication, and learn how to create video for our 9 million-strong social media audiences across TikTok, Instagram, Twitter, YouTube and other platforms. Main Responsibilities You'll source footage from scientific researchers, script and edit short-form social videos and post them across our platforms. Alongside this you'll have the opportunity to come with us on shoots and be trained in camerawork. You’ll also receive foundational training in news writing and may have the opportunity to take part in our podcasts and events. You will be paid the London living wage and will leave the internship with a showreel that demonstrates your skills. Person Specification The only entry requirements are that you have completed a science, technology, engineering, mathematics or computing degree and that you have a demonstrable interest in video production or journalism. Your Application To apply for this role, we ask applicants to submit 200 words explaining how you meet these requirements and why you are the right person for this internship. Please also provide a link to an example of a social media video you have created that tackles a scientific topic. This may be pre-existing content or something you make specifically for this application. Please paste a link to your video at the end of your 200-word statement (not included in the word count). At the time of starting their employment, the successful candidate must have permission to work in the UK There is no need to upload a CV. About New Scientist New Scientist is a magazine for the insatiably curious. We ask the big-picture questions about life, the universe and what it means to be human. Since our publication was founded in 1956 for “all those interested in scientific discovery and its social consequences”, it has expanded to include newsletters, videos, podcasts, courses and live events in the UK, US and Australia, including New Scientist Live, the world’s greatest festival of science. Our headquarters are in London, UK, and we also have offices in the US and Australia. At a time when misinformation is an increasingly corrosive force, there has never been a greater need for a trusted, impartial source of information about what is going on in the world – or a greater need for inspiration through exceptional ideas.
