We're looking for a seasoned creative with a sharp eye and a strong command of generative AI, someone who doesn't just prompt, but crafts . Below two films are a good reference.

What you bring

A portfolio that demonstrates genuine range compelling AI stills and film/video work

Deep, hands-on fluency with leading generative AI tools (image, video, and beyond)

An instinctive, trained eye for quality, composition, and visual storytelling

The craft to know when AI output is almost there and the skill to take it the rest of the way

Clear, confident communication; you can articulate creative decisions and take direction equally well

A proactive mindset - you bring ideas, flag opportunities, and don't wait to be told

What's expected

Experienced professional level. This is not an entry-level role

You follow the global conversation around AI aesthetics and visual innovation closely

You hold your own work to a high standard, every time.

Tools

AI Tools:

Must know all the strength and weaknesses of Generative Models.

Must be fluent with Video Generative Tools and construction of prompts.

Workspace creation (Magnific Space, ComfyUI, Figma Weave) is a plus.

Portfolio:

This is AI production first and hence we will keep our eyes out for pureplay AI output.

Candidate must have AI films that shows scene continuity.

Must have atleast done product ads.

Candidate must have consistent looking characters, product proof in their portfolio.

Have atleast one published AI film (done for a brand, approved and released).
