About the Role We’re seeking an AI Content Creator with a sharp creative eye and a passion for storytelling. In this role, you’ll work within our AI Superstudio to explore how new tools can unlock more expressive, resourceful, and imaginative ways to produce content. You’ll be responsible for leveraging the latest AI platforms to concept, generate, and refine visuals, and manually polishing and preparing assets for final delivery. The ideal candidate is equally comfortable experimenting with emerging creative workflows and delivering production-ready content with a keen eye for details and a director’s eye for craft.
Key Responsibilities
Content Creation & Editing: Create and edit high-quality narrative videos, including videos and other assets, leveraging AI tools and techniques (Midjourney, Veo3, Runway/Aleph, ElevenLabs, etc).

AI Tool Mastery: Become a proficient AI "prompt engineer" and master at least one AI tool directly relevant to your discipline (Social Content, Editorial, Animation).
Workflow Optimization: Build scalable workflows that allow AI to take on work typically done by assistant editors, increasing profitability and speed.
Experimental Work & Learning: Participate in weekly experimental AI Jam Sessions to collaboratively share learnings and refine prompt techniques. Maintain a prompt database for tracking successful and unsuccessful prompts.
Creative Prototyping: Utilize AI-generated concept visuals, scripts, and storyboards for rapid client approvals during pre-production.
Production Support: Accelerate animation via AI-assisted keyframe creation and iterative editing with AI-enhanced rough cuts during production.
Post-Production Optimization: Employ AI-driven optimization for formats/platforms, captions, and dynamic social content versions in post-production.
Research & Development: Continuously monitor and experiment with emerging AI tools and platforms to inform future strategies.
Collaboration: Work closely with the AI Superstudio team, including the Executive Producer, Head of Production, Director of Animation, and other Content Creators.
