Graphic Design Job Listing at Maysles Cinema in New York, NY

Internet

The Maysles Cinema seeks students with practical graphic design knowledge to present information about events (poster, flyer and calendar design), using the visual riches of the films exhibited at the theater, to cultivate an expanded, non-traditional audience for documentary and independent film.

At the Maysles Cinema, our print materials are key to meeting the challenge of developing a diverse, lively audience for documentary film and discussion - across boundaries of race, class, gender and generation. We, at Maysles, take an old-school approach to our visual marketing, designing posters for various films and festivals that function as unique visual works of art in their own right, much as movie posters did in the past. We value originality of approach and consider the designed materials to be an element of our collaborative curation with all the latitude for freedom of expression and proper acknowledgement this implies. The promotional materials produced by these young artists (posters, flyers, surveys) will be showcased in mini-exhibits or become permanent fixtures of the space itself (which functions as a casual gallery).
