• Collaborate directly with Brand and Creative Directors, Producers, and Video leadership to translate high-level marketing briefs into actionable editorial treatments, structure proposals, shot lists, and mood boards.
• Work closely with Game Capture Artists to develop gameplay sequences, define shot lists, and refine capture requirements, occasionally capturing or prototyping gameplay sequences firsthand.

• Ensure all deliverables meet industry standards, platform requirements, delivery codecs, and color and audio specifications, while maintaining organized project archives and asset pipelines.
