Media Two Interactive is officially looking for an “interactive media designer” to add to their team. As titles mean little to nothing in the way of describing what you do, allow us to share with you a few things you’ll be working on…
2012 is Media Two’s rededication to all things Media (there’s a major upcoming announcement), and as such, we are looking to add another skilled flash designer who can manage the day-to-day creativeness caged in the size of a banner ad. Our banners are not all jumping monkeys or web cam images – rather they are an integration of video, motion and direct response animation. You can see some past examples of our agency’s digital media creative here. Clients from Microsoft to Mizuno to D-Link to the University of North Carolina are all looking for something that “Wow’s” them in the digital media space, and Media Two is looking for that creative person to add onto our media team who can design and develop from concept to screen. Below are some high-level requirements that might let you know if you’re a good fit for this role:
Experience/Qualifications
- Prefer design related degree, or proof of a self-starter
- Desire to learn and excel in a fast-pace environment
- Expert knowledge of creative media tools such as Adobe Creative Suite
- Knowledge of Flash 8/9, ActionScript 2.0/3.0 and timeline animation
- HTML/JavaScript, CSS, Flash or other relevant technology skills
- Knowledge of video editing tools, like AfterEffects or Final Cut Pro
- Be well organized!
- Be willing to go above and beyond. We are not a 9 to 5 company.
Key Responsibilities
- Carry out production utilizing mainstream graphics, animation packages
- Create designs and media concepts
- Prepare and optimize graphics
- Manage integrating static and animating graphics into project construction
- Development of landing pages or microsites that complement the banner ads
Over the top
- WordPress knowledge
- Ability to look to the future
- Desire to be analytical
Next step? This is probably the most important part for you to read and test out your own creativity. We get a lot of resumes, and although we want those, and your LinkedIn connections, resumes are typically about the most boring thing a creative person can send. We can look at your portfolios that are highlighted in the resumes, but unless it is exactly what we’re looking for – it doesn’t always translate.
What we would like to see is the creation of a 300×250 flash banner ad that showcases your creativity in a limited space, and clicks through to a landing page. It’s a blank slate – you won’t be judged on your knowledge of Media Two – only your ability to produce something eye catching that says we should hire you. Once you have this, please email a link to employment@mediatwo.net with the subject line “Your Next Media Designer”.
