JOB TITLE: AI Video Editor and Motion Designer

REPORTS TO: Director Content

LOCATION: India

EMPLOYMENT TYPE: Permanent, Full-Time

Role OverviewWe are looking for an AI Video Editor & Motion Designer who can work at the intersection of traditional filmmaking, motion design and generative AI.

This is not a role for someone who only knows how to generate visually impressive AI clips. We are looking for a visual storyteller and problem-solver who can take a creative idea from concept to finished film, combining live-action footage, AI-generated characters, AI-created environments, motion graphics and traditional post-production techniques into one cohesive visual experience.

The ideal candidate should be equally comfortable asking, “What is the best way to tell this story?” and “How do I technically make this shot work?”

Key Responsibilities

Video Editing & Storytelling

- Edit corporate films, brand videos, social content, explainers, thought leadership videos and short-form digital content.
- Build strong narrative flow through pacing, shot selection, music, sound design and visual rhythm.
- Work closely with content strategists, scriptwriters, creative directors and production teams to translate scripts and concepts into compelling visual stories.
- Identify opportunities to improve scripts and treatments from a visual storytelling perspective rather than simply executing a storyboard.
- Adapt long-form video content into platform-specific short-form assets for digital and social channels.

AI Video Creation

- Create AI-generated video sequences, environments, characters, objects and visual elements using contemporary generative AI tools.
- Develop consistent AI characters and environments across multiple shots and scenes.
- Use image-to-video, text-to-video, reference-image and other generative workflows depending on the creative requirement.
- Generate AI elements that are designed for use within a larger film rather than producing isolated AI clips.
- Experiment with emerging AI video technologies and recommend the right tool or workflow for different production requirements.

Live Action + AI Integration A major part of this role will involve creating believable hybrid films that combine real footage with AI-generated elements. The candidate should be able to:

- Composite live-action actors into AI-generated environments.
- Integrate AI-generated characters with real actors and footage.
- Extend or transform real environments using AI.
- Work with green-screen footage, rotoscoping, masking and tracking.
- Match perspective, lighting, colour, depth, grain and camera movement between generated and live-action elements.
- Create shadows, atmospheric effects, foreground elements and other details required to make composites visually believable.




- Correct inconsistencies in AI-generated footage through compositing, editing, inpainting or traditional post-production techniques.
- Work creatively around limitations in existing footage when reshoots are not possible.

Motion Graphics & Post-Production

- Create motion graphics, typography, transitions, data visualisations and graphic treatments that support the narrative rather than distract from it.
- Work confidently with Adobe After Effects and Premiere Pro.
- Handle keying, tracking, masking, compositing, colour correction and basic visual-effects workflows.
- Understand how lens choice, lighting, camera angle, depth of field and movement affect compositing and generated environments.
- Deliver polished films with solid attention to sound, colour, continuity and finishing.

AI Workflow & Problem-Solving We are particularly interested in candidates who understand that AI generation is an iterative production process.

The candidate should be able to:

- Select different AI tools depending on the required output rather than relying on one platform for every task.
- Build visual references, character references and style frames before generation where required.
- Maintain character, wardrobe, environment and visual continuity across sequences.
- Identify common AI-generation problems including temporal inconsistencies, distorted faces or hands, flickering, changing environments and unnatural movement.
- Develop practical solutions when generated footage does not work, including regeneration, compositing, asset replacement, inpainting or redesigning the shot.
- Understand when AI is the right solution and when traditional editing, motion graphics, VFX or live-action techniques will produce a better result.

Creative Thinking We are looking for someone who brings ideas to the table.

You should be able to receive a brief such as:

"We have one executive interview but need to make a visually compelling 60-second film about the future of AI."

…and propose a visual approach rather than waiting for every frame to be prescribed.

You should be comfortable

- Developing visual metaphors and treatments.
- Finding creative ways to work with limited footage.
- Turning abstract business and technology concepts into visual narratives.
- Thinking through transitions between real and AI-generated worlds.
- Exploring different visual styles while maintaining brand consistency.




- Knowing when restraint will make a film stronger than adding another effect.

What We Are Looking For

- Approximately 3–5 years of experience in video editing, motion design, post-production or a related field.
- Strong portfolio demonstrating video editing and motion design fundamentals.
- Demonstrable hands-on experience with generative AI for image and video creation.
- Portfolio examples showing the integration of AI-generated elements with traditionally created or live-action footage are highly desirable.
- Strong understanding of Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects.
- Working knowledge of Photoshop and/or Illustrator.
- Experience with contemporary AI image/video generation tools and willingness to continuously experiment with new platforms.
- Understanding of compositing, keying, tracking, masking, colour and visual-effects fundamentals.
- Strong visual taste and attention to detail.
- Good understanding of storytelling, pacing and audience attention.
- Ability to work collaboratively with writers, directors, designers and marketers.
- Ability to receive feedback, iterate quickly and explain creative and technical decisions.

What Matters More Than Knowing Every AI Tool AI platforms will change constantly.

We are therefore less interested in someone who can list twenty AI tools and more interested in someone who understands:

- why a particular tool should be used;
- how a shot should be constructed;
- how different visual elements should work together;
- how to solve a problem when AI does not produce the expected result; and
- how technology ultimately serves the story.

The Mindset We Value The strongest candidate will think like an editor, motion designer, AI creator and filmmaker at the same time. They will not simply ask:

"What effect should I add?"

They will ask

"What should the audience feel or understand here, and what is the most effective visual way to achieve that?"

We are looking for someone who can be given a creative problem and respond with:

“I can figure out how to make that work.”

Leadership / Cultural Competencies

Although not a requirement, we are interested in candidates who have or identify with the following characteristics:

· Is a self-starter and proactive, who looks to take initiative.

· Does not need a lot of handholding, and can thrive in a young, entrepreneurial environment.
