Visual Storytelling Prompt Writer (AI Training)
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.

Location: Remote

Watch video clips and write structured prompts that capture the full visual story

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
