Social Media Content Library
The goal of this project is to create a library of social media posts that can be used on our social channels, primarily LinkedIn and Twitter. The student should focus on content collection, creation and organization. Posts can be images or videos The goal is to find interesting strategies DTC / e-commerce brands are using on social media. Ideally posts that are going ‘viral’ (high volume of views and comments). Creative edits, controversial topics, unique campaigns and outside the box approaches are all great to reshare. Take screenshots of posts or recordings of videos that brands have shared and created an associated caption for the post. Posts can be found by searching through hashtags, trends, ads or pre-built lists. The lesser known the brand, the better.
Content Creator and Writer Project
The main project is for a content writer and creator who can contribute to Spinning Forward's content by producing impactful and engaging stories that help our audience of aspiring 16 to 34 year-old online content creators in the Greater Toronto Area succeed. We are a local journalism company that covers issues important to 16 to 34 year old people of color who aspire to become content creators. We covers issues important to our audience in the real world like affordability, food insecurity, mental health and others as well as issues in the online world like comparison culture, burnout, financial inclusion and how to earn a living, online negative comments and many other topics. Additionally, a writer and content creator will be curious, have great research skills and want to improve ther storytelling and writing skills. They also have an interest in issues like social justice, equity and diversity and financial inclusion for underrepresented and marginalized communities. Embody Spinning Forward's approach to writing by sifting out the “noise” from the 24-hour news cycle and telling news stories in a way that will resonate most with our readers, who are Gen Z and Millennials. Bring a curiosity-driven mindset to your work. One day you might be learning about a personal finance creator and the next you'll be covering how AI is changing how creators do what they do. --- PLEASE REMEMBER: We highly value lived experiences and strongly encourage you to apply, even if you don’t believe you meet every one of the qualications described.
