I’m feeling a bit lost, so hoping for some good answers!
I am living in Germany right now, but I am planning to go to Latin America for an internship.
I’d love to get to know the continent. But until now I can’t find much information about the graphic design scenes there.
Are there metropoles for graphic design? Places with a lot of start ups? Young design students? A special art scene? Big design agencies?
My personal travel destinations are Peru, Colombia, Ecuador, Bolivia, maybe Panama.
Chile, Brazil and Argentina seem very expensive what I can’t afford for a half year as a student I guess.
Hi! I’m from Lima, Peru, and I used to work at Advertising agencies. Publicis, McCann, Ogilvy are a few of the biggest ones there. Then there’s a bunch of Corporate Event agencies that are smaller and start ups. I can point you to this: https://www.facebook.com/LaBienal.Pe/ . If you can be a bit more specific, maybe I can help. Argentina is known in South America to be the mecca for advertising and arts https://escueladecreativos.com.ar/ Everyone goes there for their master degrees.
I am interested in (fashion-/product-)photography the most and layouting. I will be in my 7th semester of my bachelor of arts and have to do an internship due to my study.
I was thinking about Quito in Ecuador the most for personal reasons or Mexico City(because they make it easy for students with the visa). Or La Paz or Catagena,…
I feel like just the “richer” countries offer a good opportunity for a qualified internship due to the internet and hearing from friends. But this is hard for me to afford, so I am searching for subejctive opinions and experiences of you!
