Full-Time AI Video Creator for Product, Lifestyle & UGC Ads (Long-Term, 40 hrs/week)

SUGGESTED UPWORK TITLE Full-Time AI Video Creator for Product, Lifestyle & UGC Ads (Long-Term, 40 hrs/week) JOB DESCRIPTION ABOUT US We are a studio producing cinematic product videos, ad creatives, and UGC for e-commerce and DTC brands. We turn flat product photos into motion that stops the scroll and sells. We work with the newest AI video, image, and audio models and we deliver in days, not weeks. We are looking for one reliable, full-time AI video creator to join us long-term. This is not a single project. We want someone who becomes our go-to creator and grows with us. If you have real taste for visuals, a feel for music, and an understanding of marketing, and you deliver fast and consistently, please read on. WHAT YOU WILL CREATE Three kinds of video, all built to look as natural and real as possible: 1) Cinematic product and motion videos. Clean, premium, every cut and every light intentional. The product is the hero. 2) Lifestyle videos. The product in real, believable settings. Natural, not staged. The viewer should feel it. 3) UGC and creator-style ads. Authentic, native, hook-first content for Meta, TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube. The kind people actually watch with the sound on. Most pieces are short, around 15 to 45 seconds, delivered in 9:16, 1:1, and 16:9. THE TOOLSTACK You should already work with most of this, or pick up new tools fast: • AIO Tool like Higgsfield • AI video: Kling 3.0, Seedance 2.0, Veo 3, Sora 2, Higgsfield, Runway, Luma, Pika • AI image: Midjourney, Nano Banana, Seedream, Ideogram, Leonardo • AI avatars and UGC: HeyGen, Higgsfield, Arcads, Runway • AI voice and audio: ElevenLabs, Suno • Editing and post: CapCut, Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve This field moves every single week. You stay on top of the newest models and you are excited to test them the day they drop. WHAT THE WORK LOOKS LIKE • Take a product (images, brand assets, sometimes a short brief) and turn it into a finished video • Write or refine hooks, choose music and pacing, add voiceover and captions • Deliver clean, platform-ready exports in multiple formats • Handle revision rounds quickly and without friction • Pick up new projects fast and keep the momentum going WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR • Fluent in German or English. Clear written communication is a must, but you should be also able to attend to video / voice calls. • Available full-time: Monday to Friday, 8 productive hours per day (40 tracked hours per week), with a 1-hour break, so about a 9-hour daily window • Significant daily overlap with Central European Time (Germany), so we can talk and turn revisions around the same day - if possible • Genuinely reliable and punctual. When you commit to a delivery time, you hit it • Fast turnaround on revisions and on new requests • A real eye for visuals, a feel for music, and a sense for what makes an ad convert • Self-driven. You solve problems instead of waiting to be told every step NICE TO HAVE • Experience with e-commerce, Amazon, Shopify, or DTC video ads • Motion graphics, 3D, or VFX skills • A track record of ads that actually performed HOW TO APPLY (please read, this is how we filter) 1) Start your application with the word AMBER, so we know you read the whole post. 2) Share 3 to 5 links to product or UGC videos that YOU personally created. Real work from your own portfolio, not random stock or generic demo clips. For each one, add a single line: which tools you used and what your exact role was. 3) Tell us which AI video and image tools you use most, and why. 4) Tell us your typical turnaround time for one 20-45 second finished video - including VO or music layover, from brief to first draft. 5) Confirm your weekly availability and your time zone. Applications without 3 to 5 real, self-created reference videos will not be considered. THE ROLE AND TERMS • Hourly contract through Upwork, full-time, long-term • We start with a short paid trial so we both see whether the fit is right, then move into the ongoing full-time arrangement • Stable and long-term for the right person. We are building something real and we want you in it.
