Summary

Seeking a highly skilled and experienced AI Image Specialist to generate the visual assets for an analytical YouTube channel. The content focuses on historical, geopolitical, and documentary-style video essays. The core requirement is producing high-quality, cinematic, and historically themed AI images (16:9 aspect ratio) that will be used as the primary visual context alongside a presenter.

Content Examples: Historical events (e.g., naval fleets, historical battles), complex geopolitical concepts, modern diplomatic scenarios, and realistic environments. Format: Strictly 16:9 widescreen, suitable for 4K video integration. Key Responsibilities: Analyze provided video scripts or visual outlines to determine the required imagery.

Deliver organized folders of high-resolution images ready for the editing timeline. Ideal Candidate Qualifications: Advanced Tool Mastery: Deep, verifiable expertise in top-tier image generation platforms (Midjourney v6, Stable Diffusion, ComfyUI, DALL-E 3).

Portfolio: Must possess a strong portfolio demonstrating cinematic realism and the ability to generate specific historical or conceptual scenes accurately. How to Apply: Please submit a proposal containing the following: A breakdown of the specific AI tools and workflows utilized for high-end image generation.
