Welcome to New Haven's community-driven freelance and networking club. Creative Wild grants students and post-grads a paid opportunity to develop their creativity and technical skills while exploring varying passions along the way, as opposed to traditional internships and entry-level positions that define the person and their career paths by a singular trade.
One day you might be brainstorming campaign ideas for a dog food brand, the next you're in a content studio shooting TikToks for a crypto brand. Some days you'll be on camera, others behind it. Creative Wild gives you the chance to explore and experiment. There are no coffee runs, no one being told to just “observe and learn”, and plenty of actual hands-on collaboration across creative skillsets, so you can build the portfolio needed for your next job, as you desire — to launch a long, passion-filled career.
Plus, we’re partnered with Connecticut's premier creative talent agency — Venn. With direct access to this emerging pool of talent, Venn is able to place creatives to jobs, whether at DS or anywhere else, increasing opportunity, retaining more talent within the state, and providing access to more diverse talent for all companies.
Access to the full production studio & gear including lights to cameras, plus a bunch of people to show you how to use it all.
Learn various creative fields, like creating social content, marketing & advertising, or even being an influencer — it’s up to you!
