Our creative output is a core part of how we grow brands, capture attention, and drive results. We have a growing AI Creatives team and a Social Media Lead who develop overarching creative directions — and now we need a specialist who can bring those directions to life through world-class AI-generated video and photo content. We are not looking for someone who dabbles in AI tools. We are looking for someone who has mastered them. --- ## The Role We're looking for a mid-level AI Video & Photo Creatives Specialist on a retainer basis to produce high-quality AI-generated video and photo assets across multiple brands. You will work directly alongside our AI Creatives team, Social Media Lead, and leadership to execute on creative directions that have already been strategized — your job is to take those briefs and produce content that stops people mid-scroll. This role spans two distinct but equally important creative categories: **cinematic realism** and **animated storytelling** — think Pixar-style narratives, Marvel-inspired sequences, and immersive animated worlds built around brand storylines. If you can move fluidly between a hyper-realistic product video and a fruit character animation that belongs in a blockbuster — you're exactly who we're looking for. This is a long-term, retainer-based role. Communication, consistency, and creative output are the pillars of success here. --- ## What You'll Do **AI Video Production** - Produce cinematic, high-quality AI-generated videos across realism and animation styles - Execute animated brand storytelling — Pixar-style, Marvel-inspired, character-driven, product animation, and narrative sequences - Generate realistic AI video content for ads, social media, brand campaigns, and product showcases - Develop and refine prompts to consistently produce on-brand, high-fidelity outputs - Edit, stitch, and post-produce AI video assets into polished final deliverables **AI Photo & Creative Asset Production** - Generate and refine AI photo creatives for use across social media, ads, and brand materials - Produce consistent visual assets that align with each brand's identity and creative direction - Retouch, upscale, and optimize AI-generated imagery for various platform specs **Scripting & Creative Direction Collaboration** - Write and refine scripts and creative briefs that guide AI video production - Collaborate closely with the AI Creatives team and Social Media Lead to interpret overarching creative directions and translate them into executable production plans - Contribute creative ideas, visual concepts, and storytelling angles that elevate the brief - Maintain a clear creative feedback loop with leadership to ensure alignment before and during production **Multi-Brand Asset Management** - Manage and organize creative assets across multiple brands with clear naming conventions and file structures - Deliver assets on time and formatted to platform specifications (Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Meta Ads, etc.) - Track versions, revisions, and final approvals efficiently --- ## What You Bring - 3–5 years of experience in video production, motion graphics, or creative content — with a clear pivot or specialization into AI-generated content - Demonstrated proficiency across AI creative tools including: **Runway, Kling, Pika, Sora, Midjourney, Leonardo AI, HeyGen, ElevenLabs, and CapCut** - A strong portfolio showcasing both **realistic AI video** and **animated storytelling** (character animation, brand narratives, cinematic sequences) - Solid scripting skills — you can write a 30-second video script that serves the creative direction and guides AI production effectively - Deep understanding of prompt engineering for video and image generation — you know how to get consistent, high-quality results - Experience producing content across multiple brands or clients simultaneously - Strong eye for aesthetics, pacing, visual storytelling, and brand consistency - Highly communicative — you provide updates proactively, ask the right questions early, and never go quiet mid-project - Comfortable receiving creative direction and executing within a collaborative team structure - Up to date on the latest AI creative tools, model releases, and industry developments — you're always testing what's new --- ## What to Expect - All necessary tools and platform subscriptions will be provided by K3 Group - You will be working across multiple brands — versatility and adaptability are essential - Creative direction will come from leadership, our AI Creatives team, and Social Media Lead — your role is execution, contribution, and elevation - This is a retainer-based role with ongoing, consistent work — we invest in people who show up and deliver --- ## Engagement Details - **Type:** Retainer-Based Contract - **Commitment:** Ongoing (scope and hours defined at onboarding) - **Location:** Fully Remote - **Rate:** Competitive retainer — commensurate with experience and output quality --- ## How to Apply **⚠️ Please apply directly through this Upwork posting only.
