The PÖFF design team is responsible for the festival’s advertising materials, print outputs, social media visuals, and everything else that shapes the festival’s visual identity. The overall visual style of the festival is quite clearly defined, so design interns are expected to strictly follow established structures and guidelines. However, there is still room for a more creative approach in certain special projects. The work of the design team can often be quite fast-paced and hectic — necessary information for tasks frequently arrives at the last minute, requiring quick turnaround and adaptability. The biggest advantage of this role is its flexibility: all tasks can be carried out remotely and on a schedule that suits you.

Design Internship

Intern Responsibilities:

• creating various design formats for print and web based on the PÖFF30 key visual

Requirements / Expectations:

• previous experience with design software (e.g. Adobe Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, or Figma). Basic-level experience is sufficient — we offer opportunities to further develop your skills during the internship
• accuracy, attention to detail, and a structured approach to tasks
• strong visual sense, including composition and typography
• good time management skills and the ability to clearly communicate needs and expectations
• willingness to contribute during a more intensive period (September–November), handle fast deadlines, and work collaboratively within a team

Most design work is done using Adobe software. If you do not have an Adobe license, you can create digital designs using the free Figma platform. If you are interested in gaining experience in print design, access to Adobe software (such as Illustrator, Photoshop, or preferably InDesign) is required.
