Do you want to showcase your skills in every frame while conveying powerful ideas tothousands of minds daily? That’s a big audience, which is why we’re looking forserious talent.
We're the global leader in online design education.

So,what do our videos look like?Here’s an example ofa video we created. We went to the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in New York and recorded a series of b-rolls. Then, we edited and added animations to explain how AI-generated art has evolved into a dynamic force in the creative landscape. As you can see, educational videos are no longer“talking heads with slides.”
This next videoshows you what our educational videos featuring experts look and feel like. It shows how much emphasis and effort we put into animations, footage and on-screen text to give the ultimate learning experience.
Check outthis third video, which is a promotional video we created to motivate more people to learn design.
So, if after seeing these videos you think,“I could do better than that!”, then we’dlove to hear from you!
