Cinematic AI creator

Picsart, the AI media production and distribution platform, where 100M+ creators and businesses worldwide make, market and monetize content. Join a team where your work impacts millions of creators daily and your ideas drive real change. We are looking for a Cinematic AI Creator (Contractor): a filmmaker who works in generative models rather than with a crew.

• Direct and produce cinematic AI content end to end: concept, story, shot list, generation, edit, sound and final delivery.
• Build multi-shot sequences with consistent characters, wardrobe, world, lighting and geography across cuts.
• Design each shot deliberately: lens, framing, blocking, lighting, colour and grade, and camera movement.
• Create the hero shots and set pieces that anchor a launch, and the showcases that demonstrate stylistic range.
• Define cinematic directions, including camera moves, lighting setups, film stocks, genre looks, transitions and VFX beats, specified clearly enough to be productised.
• Prototype new cinematic capabilities and prove what is possible before it becomes a feature.
• Set and document the quality bar for the video work we ship.
• Test each new video model on release, reporting on strengths, failure modes, prompt behaviour, motion quality and temporal consistency, and track where AI filmmaking is going.

• A body of work: film, series or episodic work, commercials, music videos, short films, branded or short-form content; whatever best shows your craft, alongside AI-native work.
• Deep understanding of visual storytelling: story structure, plot, pacing, shot design, blocking, performance and the edit.
• Command of cinematography fundamentals (cameras, lenses, lighting, colour, grading, composition and camera movement), and the vocabulary to direct them precisely in a prompt.
• Hands-on experience with generative video models and how they behave in practice, and with the image models that feed them.
• Prompting skill for video: motion description, camera control, identity and style preservation, and first/last-frame and reference-driven workflows.
• End-to-end post capability in editing, grading and sound, and the ability to run a full production cycle alone.
• Awareness of internet culture and what makes cinematic content travel.
• The judgement to hold a quality bar, including on your own work.
• Fluency in English.
• Будет плюсом: Background in VFX, animation, motion design, concept art or 3D (Blender, Cinema 4D, Houdini, Nuke, Unreal); Experience directing hybrid productions that combine live footage with generative work; ComfyUI or node-based video pipelines, and LoRA or character-consistency training; Interest in shaping AI creative tools rather than only using them; A public presence as an AI filmmaker or creator

• Please note that this is a Full-time Contractor (6 months) role.
