Enemes Animation Inc.
Distribution and Marketing/Packaging
International Animation

During the last several years, animation has enjoyed a renaissance in Korea. Most Korean animation companies have concentrated their advancing technology and their tireless effort on work-for-hire projects, thereby servicing well established animation companies in the United States, Europe and the like. Korean companies have grown considerably from this arrangement, however, most of them have not enjoyed the larger financial gains that accompany ownership of original animated properties.

Enemes is different from its Korean competitors in that it aggressively pursues strategic partnerships, co-production opportunities and its own original projects (in addition to service work). With its branch offices in LA and Gwangju Korea, Enemes intends to create many lucrative opportunities with American television networks and film studios. Marketing, creative development, distribution and production coordination are facilitated in Enemes' Southern California office. The Seoul studio handles pre, main and post production. Indeed Enemes is well-equipped to explode with investment opportunities using its own intellectual properties.

Intern duties include setting meetings, researching projects, attending meetings and helping to promote Enemes original animated series, Z-Squad, though we are flexible in catering to a particular students needs.
