Do you enjoy telling tall tales or scribbling stories? Do you love reading graphic novels, comics or picture books? Then look no further - londonprintstudio is offering five carefully chosen 21-25 year olds the chance to:
  • Run comic workshops for 16-20 year olds
  • Receive mentoring from top professional comic artists, anthology makers, screenwriters, print makers, comic publishers and art educators
  • Develop your own artistic comic projects with supervision from mentors and feedback from your fellow interns
  • Be introduced to the London comic scene, attend events, give presentations, network and meet publishers, editors and creators in the comic industry
  • Take part in editing, planning and creating work for a comic anthology publication and a comic exhibition at londonprintstudio.
The course is run by professional comic creator Karrie Fransman, whose comics have appeared in The Times and The Guardian and who is currently working on her first graphic novel due to be published by Random House.

The internships run for two days (14 hours) per week for  six months. Interns will receive a travel and food expenses budget for two days per week. All londonprintstudio staff and volunteers are required to have a Criminal Records Bureau Check.

The deadline for return of application form is Monday 5th September 2011, with interviews set to take place on Tuesday 13th September 2011. The intrnships will then start on Tuesday 20th September 2011
