Visual Storytelling Prompt Writer

$30-50/hrRemoteFreelanceOTHER

About the Role

We're looking for writers with a strong visual sensibility to help teach AI how to see and interpret film. As a Visual Storytelling Prompt Writer at Alignerr, you'll watch video clips and translate what you see — the camera angles, the mood, the narrative tension — into precise, expressive prompts that AI models use to understand and recreate cinematic scenes.

This is a unique opportunity to sit at the intersection of filmmaking craft and cutting-edge AI development. Your words will directly shape how the next generation of AI models perceives and describes the visual world.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: Flexible hours, work on your own schedule

What You'll Do

  • Watch video clips and write structured prompts that capture the full visual story
  • Describe characters, settings, camera perspectives, lighting, and emotional tone with clarity and precision
  • Balance technical cinematographic detail with narrative and emotional context
  • Produce multiple prompt variants for the same scene when required
  • Follow style guides for wording, specificity, and point of view
  • Suggest alternative phrasings and articulate how subtle word choices shift interpretation
  • Maintain a consistent, high-quality writing voice across large batches of clips

Who You Are

Must-Have:

  • Strong writing skills with a clear emphasis on visual description and clarity
  • Solid understanding of film language — shot types, story structure, pacing, and camera fundamentals
  • Ability to convey what's happening on screen without relying on dialogue or script
  • Comfortable following detailed prompt-writing guidelines and adapting to examples
  • Self-motivated and able to deliver consistent quality independently

Nice to Have:

  • Experience writing prompts for generative AI tools (image, video, or other)
  • Background in creative writing, screenwriting, film studies, or storyboarding
  • Familiarity with cinematography terminology and visual grammar

Why Join Us

  • Work on pioneering AI projects with leading AI research labs
  • Fully remote and flexible — work when and where you want
  • Apply your creative and cinematic expertise to meaningful, future-shaping work
  • Freelance autonomy with the backing of an established AI training organization
  • Potential for ongoing work and long-term contract extension
  • Be part of a global community of creative and technical contributors
