Posted by Nalip on February 18, 2022

The Early Creatives Program for Art is a 4 month full-time paid opportunity for emerging Visual Development artists to join Netflix Animation as a Trainee.

The Program will provide an opportunity for participants to hone their craft with the guidance of some of the Animation industry’s most talented artists. You’ll build invaluable relationships, gain insights into our studio culture, receive hands-on industry experience, and if all goes to plan, this could lead to promotional opportunities on our productions.
