Storyboarding & Conceptualization: Collaborate with writers and creators to storyboard concepts, deciding where traditional footage fits best and where AI generation can push creative boundaries. Platform Optimization: Ensure all video outputs are optimized for specific platform algorithms, aspect ratios, and audience retention behaviors.
