About Us

Arena SNK is a transmedia studio focused on developing and scaling both original and existing IP within

the video game, anime, and modern action space, across premium content such as film and TV shows,

direct-to-consumer touchpoints, and fan-first experiences. At our core, we are building a modern fandom

engine, fan-first and deeply rooted in community, designed for how audiences actually discover, engage

with, and demand content today.

The Role

We are looking for a sharp, culturally curious intern to join our creative team for Summer 2026. This role

sits close to the day-to-day creative process of developing premium content, giving you real exposure to

how stories get identified, evaluated, and moved forward inside a growing studio.

The right person is a strong reader and writer, detail-oriented, and genuinely excited about storytelling in

the anime, gaming, and modern action space. You should be someone who doesn't just consume content

but thinks critically about it and wants to understand how it gets made.

This internship is ideal for someone who wants a front-row seat to how original IP and premium content

get developed, and who is eager to grow within the creative side of the entertainment industry.

This role is based out of our Los Angeles, CA office and is fully in-person.
