Job description
Cinematography Prompting Specialist (AI Training)
About the Role
We're looking for film-savvy professionals to help shape the future of AI video generation. As a Cinematography Prompting Specialist, you'll watch short video clips and translate what you see into technically precise, structured shot descriptions — the kind of language that helps AI systems understand and replicate the nuances of great cinematography.
This is a rare opportunity to put your eye for visual storytelling to work on cutting-edge AI projects, all from the comfort of your own schedule.
- Type: Hourly Contract
- Location: Remote
- Commitment: Flexible — work on your own schedule
What You'll Do
- Watch short video clips and identify key shots, transitions, and visual moments
- Describe framing, camera movement, blocking, lighting, and composition using precise film language
- Craft structured prompts that capture the look, feel, and intent of each shot
- Call out stylistic references and visual influences where relevant
- Follow internal templates for both shot-level and sequence-level descriptions
- Provide examples of effective vs. ineffective prompts when needed
- Maintain consistent terminology, depth, and clarity across all tasks
Who You Are
Must-Have:
- Background in cinematography, camera work, film editing, or film studies
- Fluency in film language — you speak in terms of rack focus, Dutch angles, motivated cuts, and motivated lighting without missing a beat
- Sharp attention to visual detail: composition, lens feel, depth, movement
- Clear, consistent written communication skills
- Comfortable with repetitive, task-based work without sacrificing quality
Nice to Have:
- Experience writing prompts for AI video or image generation tools
- Professional experience as a DP, camera operator, director, or editor
- Familiarity with AI training workflows or annotation platforms
Why Join Us
- Contribute directly to cutting-edge AI projects with leading research labs
- Fully remote and flexible — work when and where it suits you
- Freelance autonomy with meaningful, intellectually engaging work
- Put your film expertise to use in an entirely new and growing field
- Potential for ongoing work and contract extension
