AI Studio Video Specialist

About the role

is an independent full-service creative agency. We work with client partners to develop creative solutions that truly move the needle. Clients range from Fortune 500 household names to up-and-comers across a variety of industries and verticals.

Were building an AI-first video studio inside the agency to expand what our team can produce focused on high-quality AI video for ads social content and beyond. The studio is early the clients are real and the creative freedom is significant. AI video opens up entirely new ways to tell stories and sell ideas and we expect the types of work we create to evolve quickly. This role is for someone who lives and breathes AI video. Someone who genuinely enjoys the technology the process and the craft and whos excited about helping shape something from the ground up within an established agency.

You have real filmmaking instincts (story pacing composition) and you know how to translate those instincts into AI video production. You understand whats possible with the latest video tools and that knowledge doesnt just help you execute it drives the creative. You see a new model drop and you immediately think about what it unlocks for a spot or a piece of content. Youre equally comfortable creating end-to-end or running a loop with specialists when parts of the work are delegated.

Youll work closely with the General Manager (AI Studio) and Head of Production alongside a strong team with deep experience across strategy brand and performance marketing. The best work here happens when your video craft and knowledge of the tools meets their expertise in what moves the needle for clients. As the studio grows this role grows with it.

What youll do

• Create AI videos end-to-end: Take a concept or direction and produce a finished-looking draft including shot planning generation motion and post production. Sometimes a finished cut.
• Originate and pitch concepts: You know what the technology can do right now. Use that knowledge to bring ideas to the table that push the work forward. The team brings strong creative instincts and strategy; you bring whats possible. The best concepts come from that overlap.
• Translate direction into execution: Turn what were trying to do into shot-level reality quickly without needing constant oversight.
• Run a specialist workflow when needed: Brief freelance specialists (stills/variants motion audio etc.) review what comes back make selects and keep iterations moving so production doesnt stall.
• Stay current on whats new and what it changes: Track new AI video model/tool releases understand whats now possible and bring practical recommendations into the studio: what we should use what we should avoid what unlocks speed or quality.
• Keep the work moving: Organize outputs versions and selects so handoffs and reviews stay fast and clear.

What were looking for (must-haves)

• Hands-on and genuinely strong at AI video creation (not just familiar). You can show work that demonstrates taste pacing and consistency.
• Strong filmmaking instincts: You think in scenes and shots you understand what a cut needs and you can make something feel intentional.
• Maker first. Your primary mode is end-to-end: take something from concept through post production yourself. When the work calls for it you shift into producer mode: directing others curating options and assembling the best result. But you lead with the craft.
• You think in possibilities not just briefs. You see a tool update or a new technique and immediately connect it to a concept worth making. You contribute creatively not just technically.
• Fast and decisive. You move fast iterate confidently and know what good enough to ship looks like.
• Clear communicator. You can run a simple loop: brief options selects iterate.
• Organized and reliable. Calm under deadlines.

Nice to have

• Background in editing motion design filmmaking VFX or creative production.
• Comfortable finishing in Premiere / Resolve / Final Cut / CapCut.
• Strong command of modern AI video tools (generation motion audio) and adapts fast as tools change.
