Video Editor and Motion Design Intern (H1/2027)

Job Position(s): Video Editor and Motion Design Intern (H1/2027)

Quandela, a quantum computing company based in Massy, Essonne, is hiring a Video Editor and Motion Design Intern for a first-half 2027 placement. This role sits inside the Corporate Communications team, where the work is squarely in post-production workflow, covering everything from social clips and interview edits to animated explainers and product videos across LinkedIn, YouTube, and Instagram. It is a strong fit for a final-year student in audiovisual production, motion design, or animation who wants hands-on post-production credits outside a traditional broadcast or agency environment.

About the Role

The Video Editor and Motion Design Intern joins a small communications and design team building out Quandela’s in-house post-production capabilities from the ground up. Projects range from short-form vertical video for social platforms to longer masterclasses, interview edits, and animated use-case explainers, all drawing on a mix of internally captured footage and professionally filmed material. A typical day moves between timeline editing, motion graphics work in After Effects, and feedback rounds with communications colleagues and subject-matter experts who review for scientific accuracy.

Key Responsibilities

• Edit raw footage through to final delivery, handling footage selection, pacing, basic colour correction, audio adjustments, and export settings for each platform.
• Design and animate motion graphics, lower thirds, and visual explainers that translate complex technical subject matter into clear, accessible content.
• Repurpose long-form video into short-form social cuts, adapting aspect ratios, pacing, and subtitle styling to vertical video and silent-viewing formats.
• Work from briefs and storyboards with the communications team to keep all output consistent with Quandela’s visual identity.
• Incorporate notes from both communications staff and technical reviewers to make sure finished content is accurate as well as well-edited.
• Build and organise a shared asset library of footage, project files, and reusable templates to support faster turnaround on future productions.

What You Bring

• Current enrolment in a programme covering audiovisual production, video editing, motion design, or animation, ideally at final-year level.
• A portfolio or showreel demonstrating editing and motion graphics work, including academic or personal projects.
• Practical working knowledge of Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects, or comparable editing and motion design tools.
• Solid understanding of visual storytelling, typography, composition, and social media video formats including vertical video.
• Excellent written and spoken English, with the ability to edit and subtitle English-language content. French is a plus.
• Knowledge of Photoshop or Illustrator is a plus. 3D animation skills are welcome but not required.

Why This Role

Quandela is building post-production capacity in-house rather than outsourcing it, which means the Video Editor and Motion Design Intern will have direct influence over how the company presents itself across every video platform it uses. The internship carries a monthly allowance of between 1,200 and 1,400 euros, plus meal vouchers via Swile Card, 50 percent contribution toward transport costs, 1.5 cumulative days off per month, and the possibility of remote work. For an editor or motion designer looking to build a varied reel that includes explainer animation, social content, and interview post-production, this placement in Massy offers real output and real credits.
