Visual Storytelling Prompt Writer (AI Training)

About The Role

We're looking for Visual Storytelling Prompt Writers to help train the next generation of AI video models. Your job is to watch film and video clips and translate what you see into rich, structured prompts — capturing not just what's on screen, but how a scene feels, how it's framed, and what story it tells.

This is a rare opportunity for writers with a filmmaker's eye to do meaningful creative work at the frontier of AI development.

• Organization: Alignerr
• Type: Hourly Contract
• Location: Remote
• Commitment: Flexible hours, work on your own schedule

What You'll Do

• Watch video clips and write detailed prompts that capture the full visual story
• Describe characters, settings, camera angles, movement, and emotional tone with precision
• Balance technical cinematographic detail with narrative and mood context
• Produce multiple prompt variants for the same scene when required
• Follow style guides for wording, point of view, and specificity
• Suggest alternative phrasings and explain how they shift interpretation
• Maintain a consistent, expressive writing voice across large batches of clips

Must-Have

Who You Are

• Strong writer with a talent for vivid, precise visual language
• Solid understanding of film grammar — shot types, camera movement, staging, pacing
• Ability to describe what you see, not what characters say — no reliance on dialogue
• Comfortable following detailed prompt-writing guidelines and examples
• Self-directed and reliable when working through large content batches

Nice To Have

• Experience writing prompts for generative AI tools (Midjourney, Runway, Sora, etc.)
• Background in screenwriting, creative writing, storyboarding, or film criticism
• Familiarity with cinematography terminology
