AI Filmmaker

About the role

About 70% of our users have never coded before. They are small business owners, solo founders, and operators who had an idea and no engineer to build it with. We are hiring a filmmaker who works with AI generation tools to make films for our social channels and campaigns.

What you'll do

• Make short films and social video using AI image and video generation tools, from concept through final cut
• Write or develop the story, and build shot lists and storyboards before generating
• Prompt, iterate, and curate until the output is genuinely usable, rather than settling for the first acceptable result
• Keep characters, wardrobe, locations, and lighting consistent across a full sequence
• Edit the generated material into a finished film, with sound design, music, grade, and captions
• Combine AI output with live footage, screen recordings, and motion graphics where the piece calls for it
• Build and maintain reusable assets: character references, style guides, and prompt libraries the team can work from
• Keep pace with new models and tools, and tell us which ones are worth moving to

What they're looking for

• A body of AI-generated film work we can watch, where the storytelling is as strong as the visuals
• Demonstrated ability to generate realistic imagery and video, with control over composition, lighting, and camera movement
• Proven consistency across shots. Show us a sequence, not a collection of standalone frames
• Hands-on command of current image and video generation tools, and a clear view of what each one is good for
• Strong editing skills in Premiere Pro or Final Cut, plus After Effects
• Grounding in the fundamentals: shot composition, coverage, pacing, and continuity
• Based in Bangalore, or willing to relocate

Nice to have

• Traditional film, animation, or VFX background
• Voice and audio generation, including cloning and dubbing
• Compositing, rotoscoping, or clean-up work
• Experience building repeatable pipelines rather than one-off pieces
