The Dallas Morning News offers a summer digital producer internship at our downtown Dallas office. The intern producer will work directly with the Audience team to creatively promote our journalism and may have the opportunity to write stories and produce content to appeal to our digital readers. The candidate must have strong writing skills, plus an excellent understanding of social media, Internet culture and the digital space.
The intern will be expected to write strong digital headlines, craft social media posts and create multimedia elements for social, including video, GIFs, TikTok videos, Instagram stories and Twitter cards. Other cool things an intern on our audience team would get to do: help manage the dallasnews.com home page, monitor real-time analytics and make decisions based on that information; improve and test headlines; optimize article pages; push news app alerts to our readers; and collaborate with writers and editors on plans for story promotion. Applicants should send links to relevant work on websites, blogs, social media or in print.
