The Role
You’ll work closely with senior creatives, strategists, and developers to concept and produce motion-first digital experiences that feel alive. This role focuses on motion design for brands and products—think animated identities, web interactions, product explainers, and social content—while exploring how AI tools can supercharge your creative process and workflow.

- Assist in developing and maintaining brand identities across digital and print
- Design modern, user-friendly web layouts and landing pages
- Create engaging social media graphics and campaigns or motion graphic content (short-form video, animation, GIFs)
- Use AI tools (e.g., Midjourney, Firefly, Runway, Figma AI, ChatGPT) to brainstorm ideas, generate visuals, and optimize creative workflows
- Collaborate with creative, content, and strategy teams to ensure consistent design across all client touchpoints
- Participate in creative reviews and bring fresh, experimental ideas to the table.
Requirements
- 1–2 years of experience in motion design (internship experience counts)
- Strong portfolio showing motion design work
- Familiarity with motion design software (Adobe Creative Suite, Figma, After Effects, etc.)
- Curiosity and hands-on experience with AI design tools (e.g., generating assets, editing visuals, creating campaign concepts)
- Understanding of visual storytelling, composition, and typography
- Collaborative mindset and ability to manage multiple projects with attention to detail
Bonus Skills
- Interest in video editing or creative coding
- Experience designing for paid media campaigns (Facebook, Instagram, YouTube)
- Passion for tech, AI, or innovation in digital design
Benefits
- Work at an agency known for doing it all—branding, web, ads, content—with lots of variety and growth potential
- Opportunity to shape the visual identity of law firm clients (a niche market) and work on high-impact campaigns
- Be part of a smart, driven, creative team that believes in doing excellent work and having fun
We offer perks designed to support your professional growth and well-being:

Los Angeles is a global leader in entertainment, so it’s no surprise that many of the biggest players in streaming, digital media and game development call the city home. But the city boasts plenty of non-entertainment innovation as well, with tech companies spanning verticals like AI, fintech, e-commerce and biotech. With major universities like Caltech, UCLA, USC and the nearby UC Irvine, the city has a steady supply of top-flight tech and engineering talent — not counting the graduates flocking to Los Angeles from across the world to enjoy its beaches, culture and year-round temperate climate.
Key Facts About Los Angeles Tech
- Number of Tech Workers: 375,800; 5.5% of overall workforce (2024 CompTIA survey)
- Major Tech Employers: Snap, Netflix, SpaceX, Disney, Google
- Key Industries: Artificial intelligence, adtech, media, software, game development
- Funding Landscape: $11.6 billion in venture capital funding in 2024 (Pitchbook)
- Notable Investors: Strong Ventures, Fifth Wall, Upfront Ventures, Mucker Capital, Kittyhawk Ventures
- Research Centers and Universities: California Institute of Technology, UCLA, University of Southern California, UC Irvine, Pepperdine, California Institute for Immunology and Immunotherapy, Center for Quantum Science and Engineering
