Positions available: Two individual students
A big part of how Reel Youth stays connected to the communities we work with is through social media, and we could use your help! Throughout the year, we like to recognize events, holidays, and notable days that are relevant to our extended online community, including Indigenous youth and Elders, queer youth and adults, new Canadians, Black youth, and young people facing economic and social barriers. We are looking for individuals that can help us set up and populate an online platform for scheduling social media posts.
In order to set up and populate an online Reel Youth social media calendar, we are hoping you can:
- research and present options for a social media calendar platform
- populate it with relevant annual dates that relate to the work we do (arts, youth wellness, and social justice)
- consult with our social media team to provide insight a youth and Northern perspective on annual events
- schedule content: create draft social media graphics and posts for twitter, instagram, and facebook for 2022
- work with our social media team to help develop a Tik Tok strategy
We believe this project will require:
- Research skills
- Graphic design skills
- Experience and expertise with social media platforms (Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram)
- A self starting attitude, and the ability to communicate clearly and work independently with direction
- A social justice orientation
We will give you access to organizational assets such as the Adobe Suite to support this project, as well as personnel, sales and brand collateral.
We hope to work with two project interns, for 10-15 hours per week for a total of 80 hours.

Reel Youth is a media empowerment project of MakeWay Charitable Society that delivers community development programming to youth and adults across Canada and internationally. Film production and distribution programs are designed to create positive change in young people's lives through technical skill building, leadership training, creative collaboration with peers and mentors, and increased connection to community resources.
Our award winning programs support participants to create media about issues they care about as they gain tangible media production and leadership skills. Programs are as much about film making as building personal resiliency in marginalized youth to overcome challenges, be successful, and inspire those around them.
