Summary

Job Description We are looking for an experienced AI video creator and video editor to produce a 45 to 60 second vertical paid social ad featuring a consistent talking eyeball character acting as a cyclist. The concept is humorous and direct-response focused. The eyeball speaks to cyclists as if it is their own eye, complains about foggy lenses, uncomfortable frames, poor visibility, and weak protection, then introduces a cycling eyewear product. A link to a similar ad is attached below as a reference for the style, pacing, character quality, and humor we are looking for. The final video should feel polished, funny, visually consistent, and ready to run as a paid ad on Meta, Instagram Reels, and TikTok. Project Requirements - One 45 to 60 second vertical video - 9:16 format - One consistent AI eyeball character across every scene - Cycling helmet, cycling outfit, and clear cyclist personality - Natural lip sync - Expressive character animation - Multiple scenes and camera setups - Smooth transitions between scenes - Product integration near the end - Polished editing - Commercial-quality final export What We Will Provide - Full script - Scene-by-scene direction - Character direction - Product images - Brand assets - Reference examples - A link showing the style and humor we want You will be expected to turn these materials into a cohesive, entertaining ad rather than a collection of disconnected AI-generated clips. Creative Style The character should feel: - Funny - Sarcastic - Slightly dramatic - Expressive - Premium - Adult, not childish - Consistent from scene to scene The humor should feel natural and well-timed. The video should look like a polished AI commercial created for a real brand. Required Experience Please apply only if you have proven experience with: - AI-generated video - AI character consistency - Talking character animation - Lip sync - Character reference workflows - Short-form paid social ads - Direct-response video editing - Product commercials - Meta creative Experience with tools such as Veo, Kling, Runway, Sora, Hailuo, Pika, Midjourney, Flux, ElevenLabs, HeyGen, Hedra, CapCut, Premiere Pro, or After Effects is preferred. Portfolio Requirement You must provide samples of videos you have personally created for brands that use a similar style. We are specifically looking for examples that demonstrate: - Consistent AI characters across multiple scenes - Talking or animated characters - Strong comedic timing - Professional sound design and editing - Paid social or ecommerce ad experience - Polished brand-quality execution Generic AI clips, personal experiments, or unrelated editing samples will not be enough. Please clearly explain which parts of each sample you were responsible for. 1. First Project and Ongoing Work 2. This first video will be a paid test project. 3. Strong performance on the first deliverable can lead to ongoing work creating: Additional AI character ads New concepts featuring the eyeball character Product-focused videos Meta ad creatives TikTok and Instagram Reels ads New creative angles and testing variations We are looking for a long-term creative partner, not someone for a single project.
