Position Overview:

We are looking for an AI Storyboard & Video Artist to support short-form narrative projects by translating shotlists and creative direction into consistent, usable AI-generated images and video clips.

This role operates in a fast-paced, iterative environment that demands strong team collaboration, visual judgment, and fluency with AI tools. Narrative pacing and story structure are established by the writing and editing teams.

Projects may target male-oriented, female-oriented, or general audiences, with a focus on clarity, impact, and visual effectiveness in short-form storytelling.

Key Responsibilities

  • Generate images and video clips based on shotlists and defined creative direction
  • Maintain character, environment, and style consistency across scenes
  • Apply visual judgment to enhance key moments using inserts, close-ups, or emphasis shots when appropriate
  • Write, refine, and iterate prompts to control framing, camera distance, composition, and visual focus
  • Adapt outputs to fit short-form narrative needs, without redesigning story structure or pacing
  • Assemble and edit generated assets into complete episodes, managing the full post-production loop including pacing, AI voiceover synchronization, sound design, and music mixing
  • Deliver final, publishable episodes ensuring high production value and adherence to platform technical specifications
  • Collaborate with creative leads to ensure generated visuals are usable and editorial-friendly
  • Explore and test new AI tools and workflows to improve efficiency and quality

Requirements

  • Hands-on experience with AI image and/or video generation platforms
  • Strong understanding of prompting and visual control (angle, framing, emphasis)
  • Solid visual literacy (composition, camera language, shot types)
  • Background in storyboarding, filmmaking, photography, illustration, or video production is a plus
  • Ability to follow creative direction while making smart visual execution decisions
  • Comfortable working in fast-iteration environments
  • High acceptance of AI-assisted workflows and new technologies
  • Experience with short-form narrative, episodic content, or dramatic visual storytelling
  • Familiarity with AI-generated video pipelines
  • Understanding of how visuals support attention and clarity in short-form content
  • Strong communication skills and ability to respond constructively to feedback
  • Familiarity with Node based workflow is preferred
