In this fully remote freelance role, you will create cinematic, premium-quality video advertisements using cutting-edge generative AI technologies for direct-to-consumer (DTC) e-commerce brands. You will transform creative briefs into visually compelling video ads designed to capture attention, engage audiences, and drive conversions across Meta platforms and other paid media channels. From concept development and AI-generated footage to sound design, editing, and final delivery, you will own the complete creative production process. You will experiment with different visual styles, storytelling approaches, hooks, and formats to produce high-performing advertising assets. Working with brands across categories such as handcrafted art, home décor, and jewelry, you will help bring products to life through distinctive cinematic storytelling. This opportunity is ideal for an experienced AI video creator who combines technical expertise, creative vision, and a strong understanding of performance-driven advertising.

Accountabilities

• Cinematic AI video production: Create high-quality, cinematic video advertisements using advanced generative AI tools, delivering polished visuals that align with brand identities and campaign objectives.
• End-to-end creative execution: Transform creative briefs into finished advertising assets, managing the entire production workflow from initial generation and scene development to editing, sound design, enhancement, and final export.
• Paid social advertising: Produce engaging video ads for Meta platforms, including Facebook and Instagram, as well as other paid digital advertising channels, adapting creative assets to the requirements of each platform.
• Creative concept development: Translate marketing objectives and product positioning into compelling visual narratives, advertising concepts, and cinematic storylines that showcase products effectively.
• AI-generated visual development: Generate and refine keyframes, scenes, and visual assets using image-generation tools to maintain consistency, realism, and visual quality throughout each video.
• Editing and post-production: Edit, assemble, enhance, and finalize video content using professional editing software, ensuring polished transitions, pacing, sound, resolution, and overall production quality.
• AI audio and voice integration: Incorporate AI-generated voiceovers, music, and sound effects to strengthen storytelling, establish the desired atmosphere, and improve audience engagement.
• Creative testing and iteration: Develop variations of advertising hooks, formats, pacing, and visual approaches, refining creative outputs based on campaign performance and feedback.

• Quality assurance: Review final deliverables for visual consistency, technical accuracy, appropriate formatting, and production quality before publication.
• Workflow innovation: Explore emerging AI video-generation tools and creative techniques to improve production efficiency, expand creative possibilities, and maintain high standards.
• Cross-functional collaboration: Work with relevant stakeholders to interpret briefs, incorporate feedback, meet deadlines, and deliver advertising assets aligned with business and marketing goals.

Requirements

• Expert-level AI video generation: Demonstrated expertise in creating cinematic, high-quality videos with generative AI tools, with the ability to produce professional advertising content rather than basic AI-generated clips.
• Generative AI tool proficiency: Hands-on experience with platforms such as Higgsfield Cinema Studio, Google Veo, Kling, Runway, Sora, Luma, Hailuo/MiniMax, Seedance, or comparable AI video-generation tools.
• AI image generation: Strong image-generation and image-editing skills for creating and refining keyframes, scenes, and visual assets using tools such as Nano Banana, Flux, or similar platforms.

• Strong creative portfolio: A portfolio showcasing high-quality cinematic AI-generated videos, commercials, product advertisements, or comparable professional creative work.
• Creative storytelling: Ability to translate ideas into visually engaging narratives, create compelling opening hooks, and maintain audience interest throughout short-form advertising content.
• Attention to detail: Strong visual judgment and the ability to maintain consistency in lighting, composition, motion, product appearance, and overall aesthetic quality.
• Adaptability and experimentation: Willingness to test new tools, explore different creative approaches, and iterate quickly based on feedback and changing campaign requirements.
• Independent project management: Strong organizational skills, reliability, and the ability to manage creative assignments independently while meeting deadlines in a remote environment.
• Communication skills: Ability to understand creative briefs, communicate ideas clearly, incorporate feedback, and collaborate effectively with distributed teams.

Strongly preferred

• Experience producing paid social advertisements for e-commerce or direct-to-consumer brands.

• Experience creating product-focused advertising for categories such as home décor, handcrafted art, jewelry, or other consumer lifestyle products.
• Familiarity with adapting video assets for different advertising placements, aspect ratios, and platform requirements.

Nice to have

• Experience developing advertising concepts and storylines from an initial brief.
• Knowledge of creative testing strategies and how variations in visual storytelling can influence advertising performance.

• Familiarity with emerging generative AI workflows and techniques for improving creative production speed and consistency.
