AI Creative Strategist — Scroll-Stopping AI Ads for Pheromen (Animation / Cartoon / Claymation)

We are looking for a highly creative AI Creative Strategist who specializes in producing scroll-stopping, AI-generated ads for our consumer brand. This role is focused exclusively on: AI animation ads Cartoon-style ads Claymation-style ads Stylized product storytelling AI-generated performance creatives for paid social We are not looking for traditional video editing, generic UGC production, static graphic design, or standard agency-style advertisements. About the Brand Pheromen™ is a premium pheromone-infused fragrance for men, sold direct-to-consumer in the US market. It is positioned as a masterfully composed signature scent that gives men a subtle biological edge in social situations — the "missing signal" that makes them get noticed again. Our core customer is not a 22-year-old TikTok kid. He is a mature man (45–65) who feels he has become invisible over the years — at work, in restaurants, in rooms he used to own. Our creative speaks to him with dignity, intelligence, and a wink of humor. Never sleazy, never "alpha male" hype, never pickup-artist energy. Our communication is confident, direct, and entertaining. We want ads that feel unexpected and fun while still communicating a clear product benefit and respecting the customer. Core themes include: From invisible to noticed — the moment she turns her head and asks "what are you wearing?" One missing signal, not a broken man — he was never the problem A premium fragrance first (spice + vanilla, 8–10h longevity) that happens to carry a biological advantage Disarming skepticism with honesty and humor — this is not a magic potion, and we say so Confidence restored, not manufactured Fair pricing, 30-day money-back guarantee, discreet shipping What You Will Do You will help us develop and execute AI-first advertising concepts from the initial idea to the finished creative. Your responsibilities may include: Developing original ad concepts and visual hooks Turning product benefits into entertaining visual stories Creating storyboards and scene sequences Producing animation, cartoon, or claymation-style AI ads Writing short scripts, hooks, captions, and calls to action Creating multiple creative variations for testing Adapting concepts for Meta, Instagram, TikTok, and other short-form platforms Analyzing which creative ideas are likely to perform and suggesting new testing angles Maintaining visual and strategic consistency across different ads Creative Directions We Are Interested In Examples of concepts we want to explore: A claymation man who is literally translucent/invisible in every scene — at the bar, at the office, at a party — until one spray of Pheromen makes him solid, sharp, and impossible to miss Cartoon characters representing the moments men feel overlooked: the waiter who never sees him, the room that talks past him, the reflection that stopped surprising him An animated comparison: overpriced designer colognes that smell nice but do nothing, cheap body sprays, "miracle" pheromone scams — and Pheromen A bottle character that disarms skepticism head-on ("No, I won't rewrite her brain. Here's what actually happens…") Visually exaggerated before-and-after transformations — invisible man walks in, noticed man walks out An animated, stylized version of the 3-step mechanism: scent meets body chemistry → signal reaches her → the head-turn moment Unexpected, humorous, or highly stylized product stories that make a skeptical 50-year-old smile instead of scroll Short animated worlds built around the idea of being seen again Important: our winning audience is 45+ and highly skeptical. Creatives must land with a mature, experienced man — no Gen-Z meme aesthetics, no "alpha" bravado, no crude "spray this, get girls" framing, and no hard scientific guarantees. Charm, wit, and dignity win. What We Are Looking For You should have strong experience with several of the following: AI video generation tools AI image generation Character consistency Image-to-video workflows Animation and motion design Cartoon or claymation aesthetics Creative strategy for direct-to-consumer brands Short-form paid social advertising Performance-driven storytelling Prompt engineering Sound design, voice-over, and editing Experience with tools such as Kling, Runway, Veo, Midjourney, Flux, ComfyUI, After Effects, Premiere Pro, CapCut, ElevenLabs, or similar platforms is valuable. However, we care more about your creative thinking, visual quality, storytelling skills, and ability to produce strong ads than about any specific tool. How We Want to Work We will begin with individual paid ad projects. When the collaboration works well, we are interested in building a long-term relationship and potentially integrating you into our team as an ongoing Creative Strategist. We are looking for someone who does more than simply execute instructions. You should be able to: Bring your own ideas Challenge weak concepts Think in hooks, emotions, visual patterns, and testing angles Understand why people stop scrolling Translate brand strategy into entertaining creative execution Build repeatable creative formats rather than only producing one-off videos Application Requirements Please include: Examples of AI-generated animation, cartoon, or claymation work Examples of short-form ads you have created A brief explanation of your creative process The AI tools you currently use Your typical pricing structure for a 15–30 second ad One initial creative idea for a men's fragrance brand whose customer is a man over 45 who feels invisible Start your application with the codeword Magnet so we know you have read the full post.
