Visual & Motion Designer

Visual & Motion Graphic Designer (Internship)

 

📍 Remote | 💼 2–3 Month Internship | 🕓 Flexible Hours | 💸 $500 Stipend

 

About Penned.io

Penned.io is focused on redefining the world of collaborative and intelligent writing tools for modern creators, marketers, and publishers. As we prepare to launch our brand-new website, we’re offering a unique opportunity for a creative visual designer with motion and UI sensibilities to help bring our landing pages to life through engaging, high-quality graphics and animations.

 

🌟 The Opportunity

We’re looking for a talented Visual & Motion Graphic Design Intern with experience in motion graphics, UI design, and digital storytelling to create custom visuals for each section of our new website.

Our landing page layouts are already fully designed — what we need now are the graphics, motion elements, and supporting visual assets that elevate the experience: icons, illustrations, animated components, section visuals, and brand-forward design details.

As part of this unpaid internship, you’ll work closely with our Head of Design and creative team to translate page structure into polished, modern visuals that match the quality of leading product websites. 

We will reward the successful applicant with $500 for their work, as well as mention their name in the footer of the website.

 

👨‍💻 What You’ll Be Doing

You’ll be contributing graphics and motion assets across 3–4 landing pages, as well as supporting visuals throughout the broader site.

 

Section Graphics & Visual Assets

  • Design custom illustrations, icons, and supporting graphics to accompany key landing page sections
  • Develop visual elements that enhance clarity, hierarchy, and storytelling

 

Motion & Micro-Interactions (Bonus Focus)

  • Create lightweight motion graphics, animated assets, or micro-interaction concepts that make the site feel dynamic and modern
  • Explore subtle UI animation principles for web use

 

Collaborate & Iterate

  • Work closely with internal stakeholders to understand design goals and brand direction
  • Apply feedback across iterations quickly and thoughtfully

 

Export & Delivery for Development

  • Ensure all assets are cleanly organized, export-ready, and optimized for implementation
  • Provide developer-friendly files, specs, and motion references when needed

 

Contribute to Brand Growth

  • Help shape the visual identity of Penned.io during a major product moment
  • Build portfolio-worthy work that will be seen by thousands of creators and publishers

 

🛠️ What We’re Looking For

  • A strong portfolio showcasing motion design, web graphics, UI visuals, or digital product assets
  • Experience with tools like Figma, After Effects, Illustrator, Photoshop, or similar
  • Strong visual instincts in layout, composition, typography, and brand consistency
  • Understanding of how graphics support user journeys and digital storytelling
  • Ability to work independently, manage deadlines, and stay responsive to feedback

Bonus: Experience designing animated UI components, Lottie files, or web micro-interactions

 

🎨 Style Reference

We admire the quality and polish of designers like DesignJoy:

We’re aiming for a similar level of modern execution, though there’s no requirement to match a specific artistic style.

 

🖥️ Tools You'll Likely Use

  • Figma
  • Adobe Creative Suite (Illustrator, Photoshop)
  • After Effects (or similar motion tools)
  • Slack, Notion, Google Workspace

 

🙌 What You’ll Get

  • Real-world experience contributing to a high-impact product launch
  • Autonomy to explore your creativity and build standout portfolio work
  • A supportive, remote-friendly environment
  • Exposure to cross-functional collaboration across Design, Marketing, and Product
  • A strong professional reference and visibility in a growing creative tech company
